It was known that customers are often switching between offers and thus between companies or just stayed dormant. The associated decrease in the average order frequency therefore managing customer churn has a huge profit potential for each online retailer. For online retailers, customer loyalty and regular purchase behaviour is an important part of achieving the sales and margin targets so that maintaining and preserving the customer base. This paper uses the key performance indicators of one big online retail company to examine the current situation in detail and provide methods to reduce the churn. For this purpose, several aspects are used, ranging from the use of tracking software to record customer activities and interests in the online shop itself, to the resulting segmentation into various customer types and the precise calculation of customer lifetime value. These aspects converted to the numerical values are used to train machine learning model with goal to calculate a probable churn score. Additionally, the probability calculation for reordering is used as an input for further marketing activities together with estimation of financial uplift and profit potential. |
