REM Analysis
REM Analysis
usual demographic or behavioral segmentation. Here are some advanced approaches you might
consider:
By scoring customers on these three metrics, you can categorize them into different value tiers (e.g.,
high-value, loyal, at-risk).
Estimate the total value a customer will bring over their lifetime. This can be based on historical data,
purchase patterns, and predictive modeling.
3. Propensity Modeling
Use statistical models to predict the likelihood of a customer performing a desired action, such as
making a repeat purchase or responding to a marketing campaign.
Analyze the costs associated with serving different customers and compare these to the revenue they
generate. This helps identify not just high spenders but those who are profitable after accounting for
service costs.
Group customers based on the types of products or services they buy. For example, those who purchase
premium products versus budget products.
Identify customers at risk of leaving and understand their characteristics. Retaining high-value customers
who are at risk of churning can be more beneficial than acquiring new customers.
7. Engagement Metrics
Assess how engaged customers are with your brand through metrics like email open rates, social media
interactions, and website activity.
8. Behavioral Clustering
Use machine learning algorithms like k-means clustering or hierarchical clustering to group customers
based on multiple behavioral variables (e.g., purchase frequency, browsing behavior, product
preferences).
9. Needs-Based Segmentation
Identify and segment customers based on their specific needs or pain points. Tailoring offerings to
address these can increase perceived value and loyalty.
Analyze and segment customers based on where they are in their journey with your brand (e.g., new
customers, active users, lapsed customers). Tailor strategies to each stage.
Segment customers based on their level of advocacy or their likelihood to refer others. Brand advocates
can be highly valuable due to their influence and potential for word-of-mouth marketing.
Segment customers based on the average value of their transactions. High transaction value customers
might be more valuable despite fewer transactions.
Use surveys, reviews, and sentiment analysis to gauge customer satisfaction and segment based on
positive vs. negative feedback.
Apply predictive analytics to determine which customers are likely to stay or leave, and develop
strategies to retain high-value customers based on this analysis.
By employing these methods, you can create a more nuanced understanding of customer value and
tailor your strategies to maximize engagement, retention, and profitability.
