Internet
Data Modeling
Every click of a
web site visitor's mouse reveals a choice, a request for information,
the impact of previous information, and leaves a trail of gold for marketers.
Opti-Market Consulting can use the visitor logs that are automatically
created by every web site, as well as information collected by more sophisticated
web sites, to provide marketing knowledge that will be valuable both on-line
and off.
Here are a few of
the marketing insights that Opti-Market Consulting can provide clients
as well as some other points of interest to those looking to mine their
web data:

For
Designing New Products, Estimating Market Shares and
Building
Brand Equity
Product designers
often know how to change a product to make it more appealing to customers.
What they don’t always know is how many more customers will choose to
buy the new product instead of a competitive product, or how much more
customers will be willing to pay for a given product enhancement. Choice
/ Conjoint Models answer these and other questions. Dispersed
Choice Mapping™ answers them better.
General Benefits
1. Aids the design
of new products by measuring the value consumers’ place on specific attribute
changes in products store interiors, sales channels, etc.
eived as the most
valuable by measuring changes in product choices and product preferences.
Measures the value
consumers’ place on specific brands so that the value of the brand can
be determined.
Multiple choice tests
can therefore measure changes in brand preferences and allow marketers
to evaluate the progress of efforts to build a brand’s image and reputation.
2. Predicts market
share for new products
Shows which competitive
products will lose market share so that the number of consumers switching
from a competitive product can be maximized and the number of consumers
switching from one of our client’s other products can be minimized.
Shows which consumer
groups make up the market share for the new product
Advantages of Dispersed
Choice Mapping™
1. Much more detail
is provided about how consumers value product attributes.
2. DCM market share
estimates are more accurate.
They
use more of the information provided by consumers to estimate market shares
instead of assuming a convenient formula for converting product preferences
into market shares as is done by all of the leading competitive techniques.
They account for the combined effects of multiple attribute changes (or
variable interactions) without adding complication for the survey participants.
They avoid biasing results due to specific survey designs.
Targeted
Marketing

Targeting high-volume or especially receptive consumers is one of the
best ways of increasing a company's return on its marketing investment.
Whether the goal is customer acquisition, retention, or cross-selling,
accurate identification of receptive consumers can dramatically increase
the return on marketing investments by realizing the majority of the
value for a fraction of the cost.
Why Integrate Marketing with Statistical Analysis?
There is no question that any effective statistical analysis requires
the analyst to have a thorough understanding of the statistical methods.
But it is equally true that possessing a clear insight into buying behavior
can play a major role in the predictive accuracy of marketing models.
The main reason for enhancing statistical techniques with knowledge
of consumer behavior is to make the statistics much more accurate.
Imagine, for example, that a car manufacturer has a list of previous
customers and is trying to target likely buyers of a new family car.
To support its marketing efforts, the manufacturer has bought outside
vendor data concerning the types of other cars previously purchased
and the age of the customers' family members. This information may be
enough to make some estimate about the customer's next purchase.
However, by applying some insight into the possible buying behavior of prospects,
the car maker could use the available data to derive a more actionable level
of information. This improved, refined information does a better job of
increasing profitability by making a better purchase prediction.
At Opti-Market Consulting,
we apply modeling techniques and marketing savvy jointly to increase predictive
accuracy, and this increased accuracy means more bottom-line profits for
our clients.
