Next Best Offer Design: Solution Architecture
Next best offer, next best action, interaction optimization, and experience optimization typically have similar architecture. Machine learning and multivariate statistical analysis are at the heart of these cutting edge Behavioral Analytics strategies. Typically firms use statistical tools for segmentation models, behavioral propensity modeling, and market basket analysis.
The bleeding edge in next best offer is increasingly around:
- Applying machine learning to find connections between product tastes and different affinity statements
- Developing low-latency algorithms that help show the right product at the right time to a customer
- Developing rich customer affinity profiles through a variety of feedback loops as well as third-party data source (e.g. Facebook user demos and taste graph)
