Customer Name Analysis and Profiles

Since customers who have purchased from you in the past are likely to purchase again, it only makes sense to gather as much information as possible about this most important segment of your customer file. Profiling—locating clusters within your customer file that outperform the average—is an excellent way to find your best prospects. Customers and prospects who are likely to purchase from you can be broken down into three types:

Direct Customers – Determine which customer segments perform the best and mail to them more often. Knowing which customers offer the greatest potential can help you focus on those you want to retain.

Indirect Customers – Your best salesperson is a satisfied customer. Identify prospects in districts where other schools have purchased and leverage the district relationship to expand your penetration.

Prospects – Seek out prospects who are clones of your best customers. Prospects who have similar characteristics and demographics to your top customers are more likely to respond and buy your product.

This insight into your audience helps you develop targeted mailings for increased response rates and higher profitability.
