Response Modeling

Response Modeling combines guest demographics, behavior and preferences along with past history of customer's behavior to predict the propensity of prospects to respond to different promotional offers, likelihood of their behavior in future, and their life time value. It helps understand the answers to the following questions-

  • How can I prioritize whom to target?
  • Which prospects will respond to this campaign?
  • How can I acquire more customers who look like my best customers?
  • How do I optimize my campaign dollars by focusing on the right prospects?

Deeper Guest Knowledge through Effective Segmentation:

Segmentation solutions help clients differentiate between customer segments based on their needs, attitudes, behaviors and demographics in ways useful for marketing.

Segmentation allows marketers to answer the following questions:

  • What are my distinct guest segments? What are their needs, brand attitudes and behavior?
  • How can I compare the characteristics of different segments to determine segment-specific actions?
  • What is the profitability and channel usage of each of my guest segments?

Analytics can also be used to identify new segments of customers with needs distinct from existing customers- or to derive deeper insights into existing segments.

Analytical techniques like Recency, Frequency, and Monetary Value (RFM) Analysis (using guest history data) and Basket Analysis are used as starting points to assess customer lifetime value and help estimate the profitability and revenue potential of segments. Marketers use segmentation not only to attract guests, but to provide personalized service based on their needs and preferences.

Maximize Guest Value through Effective Cross Sell Strategies:

Cross selling is one of the quickest ways to deliver profitable growth. Cross-selling helps maximize guest value by effectively marketing additional products and services to customers. Profiles of common customer behavior patterns can be created through analysis of guest demographics, preferences and other significant variables. Then, by comparing new customers to these profiles, cross-sell solutions can predict which guests are likely to follow the same paths.

Analyze - Analyze Guest attributes, preferences, purchase

Profile - Create profiles of common guest behavior patterns

Predict - Compare new guests to these profiles to predict likely paths

Target - Model, Prioritize, Personalize, Optimize, Interact

Cross-sell solutions helps travel marketers answer questions such as:

  • Which of my guest are good candidates for cross-selling?
  • Which products or services are most appropriate?
  • What is the best time and channel to make an offer?
  • How can I precisely target my cross-sell offers to reduce the possibility of customer fatigue?

Maximize Revenue through Yield Management:

Yield management maximizes profits from the sale of perishable assets such as hotel rooms or airline seats by controlling price and inventory and differentiating product and service. Unique customer segments, based on behavior, price sensitivity, usage pattern, etc are identified. Appropriate products are then created along with targeted price and service levels. To maximize the revenue from existing inventory, Yield Management solutions utilize analytics to predict the demand and booking patterns from each of these segments of customers. It allows service providers to plan for lean periods and maximize their revenues by attracting customers who are likely to respond in low traffic seasons.

Segment - Define Segments based on behavior, usage, price

Offer - Create Seasonal pricing calendars & targeted pricing

Forecast - Forecast demand based on trends, seasonal patterns, market

Plan - Allocate capacity to various segments to maximize revenue

Yield Management solutions helps travel marketers answer questions such as:

  • What is the expected demand from various customer segments?
  • How do I price the inventory (of seats, rooms, etc.) to maximize my revenue?
  • How will I reserve my inventory to my most valuable customers?
  • How can I use pricing as a tool to enhance my revenues, in a scientific manner?
