ABSTRACT:
An enhanced business reporting methodology and system architecture provide a way to receive, store, and manipulate customer and revenue data to increase average revenue per user for a business. The system and method analyze a business's current revenue streams and historical revenue trends to identify those revenue streams that may benefit from stimulation, assess the effectiveness of past marketing campaigns, select a revenue stream and strategy to increase the revenue for the selected revenue stream, select a previously successful marketing campaign consistent with the selected strategy. The system and method analyze the customer base to identify characteristics of customers who have responded positively to previous marketing campaigns and whose revenue has increased as a result, in order to create statistical models to identify customers with similar traits, and apply the statistical models to score and select customers to contact during future campaigns.
