Direct Marketing
“Any direct communication to a consumer or
business recipient, that is designed to
generate a response in the form of an order
(direct order), a request for further
information (lead generation), and/or a visit
to a store or other place of business for
purchase of a specific product(s) or service(s)
(traffic generation).”
The Direct Marketing Association (DMA)
Alternate Definitionuse of
interaction
media
with customers
(Stone)
The interactive use of advertising media,
to stimulate an immediate behaviour
that can be tracked, recorded, analyzed
and stored on a database for future
retrieval and use.

In Other Words…
The purpose of direct marketing is to

Database Marketing
•
Database Marketing: the discipline of continuously aggregating,
interpreting, analyzing, and applying information about
customers and prospects to achieve business objectives.
•OR
Direct marketing is a way of acquiring and keeping
customers by providing a framework for three activities:
 analysis of individual customer information
 strategy formation
 implementation such that customers respond directly
In this course, the terms “direct marketing” and “database
marketing” are interchangeable
It began with Mass Marketing...
Mass Marketing: A method of reaching
millions of people to tell them about
available products and services.
predominated from 1950 to 1980
growth of television created mass audiences for national advertising
mass marketing makes mass production possible: lower prices,
improved quality, higher disposable incomes
mass marketing losing effectiveness for some products
 most people have the basics
 media fragmentation
Database marketing enables a 2way dialogue with one consumer
Mass Marketing
Database Marketing
Targeting to Many
Targeting to ‘One’
13
Key Differences Mass vs. Direct Marketing
Mass
Directed at many via mass media
Generic communications
Highly visible to competition
In general, no clear action
communicated: designed to drive
awareness, change attitudes,
behaviour
Effectiveness tough to measure
“Noise” reduces effectiveness
Direct
Targeted to individual, valuable
customers via direct marketing
Customized communications
Less visible to the competition
Clear ‘call-to-action’ requested
Results are measurable
Almost “noise-free”
Do you think mass marketing will eventually “cease to exist”?
Key Differences Mass vs. Direct Marketing
Mass marketing
 build a brand and advertise it
 distribution to retail
 customer initiates buying
Direct marketing
 get to know customer because you start recording
your transactions with them
 maybe distribute direct
 company initiates contact
Database Marketing
Why use Database
Marketing?
Five typical applications:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Use profiles to find more loyal and
responsive prospects
Increase customer retention rate, or
repurchase rate
Increase referrals
Increase cross-selling and up-selling
Decrease marketing costs
Questions that DBM can
answer:
Which customers are profitable now?
 Which customers could be more profitable
over time?
 Why are my customers leaving?
 What channels do customers prefer to buy
through?
 How do I know when and what products to
up-sell / cross-sell?

Three levels of Direct Marketing
Direct marketing drives the business: “stand alone”
 E.g. ING DIRECT, BELAIRdirect
Direct marketing drives part or all of the marketing
strategy: integrated
 E.g. traditional banks
Direct marketing is used within the
communications mix
 Peripheral
 E.g. mailing lists of small retailers
Three levels of Direct Marketing
DM
1. ‘Stand alone’
2. Integrated
DM
DM
3. ‘Peripheral
Reasons for Growth
More demanding, time-poor consumers
 women make up higher % of workforce
 less time to spend on purchase decisions:
DM is personal and targeted so saves time
Decline in brand loyalty
 excessive price reductions, increasing
retailer power, brand proliferation
 with DM, identify best customers and
reward loyalty
Reasons for Growth cont.
Proliferation of media
 media fragmentation makes it difficult to reach
customers by traditional media
 growth opportunities for DM because a cost
effective means of reaching customers
Demand for accountability
 often easier to measure effectiveness of DM
tactics vs. traditional mass marketing tactics
Changing technology
 continuing drop in computer processing costs
 Internet
Core Concepts of Direct
Marketing
Customer-based, not product-based
Individualized: High Customer Involvement
Targeted vs. wide reaching
Attract Relationship Buyers, Detract Transaction Buyers
Focus on Retention vs. Acquisition
Focus: Share of ‘Customer’ or ‘Wallet’ vs. Share of
‘Market’
Measurability: Test & Learn Approach
Information-intensive
Long-term oriented
Industries that have adopted

Database Management
Relationship Marketing
Relationship marketing uses customer databases
to record individual characteristics and preferences.
Targets individual customers according to
their specific needs, and building
customer loyalty.
Marketers find or create products and experiences tailored
to
delight individual customers (rather than the opposite).
Relationship Marketing
•It is the core business strategy that integrates
internal processes and functions and external
networks to create and deliver value to targeted
customers at a profit. It is grounded on high-quality
customer data and enabled by information
technology

Discovering opportunities
Data Mining
•
•
•
is the process of using statistical analysis to detect relevant patterns
and trends in purchasing behavior in a database
requires task-appropriate software to sift through massive quantities
of data
helps transform data into marketing information, e.g.:
 develop models that predict future purchase behavior based on
past purchases
 determine response to marketing programs
 help forecast sales
 allows for creation of customer profiles
Some Commonly Used Statistical
Procedures and Software for DM
Statistical Procedures
 Regression Analysis
 Cluster Analysis
 Discriminant Analysis
 Factor Analysis
 CHAID (Chi-square automatic interaction
detection)
Segmentation Applications
Segment by customer value
Not all customers are created equal - most sales are to a
minority of customers
PARETO Principle: For most companies the 80/20 rule
applies: 20% of customers account for 80% of profits
Goal : increase profitability by identifying and focusing on
that 20% of customers
How much are your customers worth today, their lifetime
value (present value of future profits), or their potential
value (future growth) given growth
30
Segmentation Applications: LTV
Lifetime Value (LTV)
Calculate how much profit each customer is likely to be
worth to the company
 Focus marketing strategy
 Determine allowable marketing spend
What it really means is that throughout the time that a
customer spends with you, they will generate revenue for
you
That revenue generated over those years is essentially
their lifetime value
You can determine, what the value of that customer is
today, given how long they will stay, this is all you need to
understand about LTV
30
Customer Value Dictates
Strategy
Best Customers (MVCs)
 20% of Customers
 80% of Revenue
Best hope
for new GOLD customers
Worst Customers
 50% of Customers
 1% of Total Revenue

Customer Profiling
Customer profiles
 a way of identifying possible new prospects for your
company


Divide customer base into segments with similar
attributes: purchase behaviour, demographics, lifestyle
Works on the principle that our best prospects are like
our existing customers

Customer Profiling
Various ways to create customer profiles, e.g.:
– Demographics
– Cluster Analysis
30
Customer Profiling:
Demographics
What are Demographics?
•
•
Facts about people that describe who they are and that we
can determine, measure and record
e.g. - income, age, presence of children, housing, sex,
marital status type of car, occupation etc.
Sources
• Surveys - ask questions on satisfaction surveys, application
forms, contests etc.
• Applicant data - banks, insurance, credit card companies
Customer Profiling: Cluster
Analysis
•
•
Data is searched to find natural groupings, the members
of each group having more in common with each other
than they do with members of other groups e.g.:
– parents of babies
– sports enthusiasts
– people who read: fiction vs. biographies
Software suggests additional purchases that would likely
appeal to a customer based on what others in the
segment have bought
Customer Profiling: Cluster
Analysis
Applications - e.g.:
• Bank
- have teller display screens suggest “next product”
• Department store - identify households that buy cribs and
strollers and target them for baby clothes and infant toys
• Start thinking about relationships that might not be obvious
- e.g., a U.S. company that sells wine direct discovered:
 Champagne buyers are more likely to add glassware,
chocolates or gift items to their order
 Red wine buyers more likely to take advantage of full case
discounts
 Buyers of California wine are more likely to add other
California wines to their order
