Customer Marketing Suite for Utility Companies

Predictive Modeling Services

This behavior-based suite of predictive models is designed to optimize marketing budgets and improve how you communicate with your customers. Our approach leverages utility customer data from multiple utilities, which increases efficacy, illustrates industry trends and illuminates best practices. When you can predict future actions of your customers, you can segment and target audiences that are most likely to respond to relevant communications and offers and exclude customers for whom the information is irrelevant.

You can, for example, segment customers according to criteria, such as:

• Who has the highest propensity to take advantage of renewable energy offerings?
• Who is most likely to pay late in the next 90 days?
• To whom should we promote equal pay?
• Who is most likely to adopt electronic billing?
• Who is most likely to leave in the next 90 days?

Communication Strategy Services

Our experts help you create a communications strategy that addresses the opportunities and threats of your customer portfolio, along with the reports you need to measure results.

Campaign Delivery Services

Experts help you execute marketing campaigns that address your key customer pain points. Supportive analytical services focus on historical data to reveal customer portfolio findings related to customer tenure, retention, cross selling opportunities and more. Steps included in campaign execution include:

• Set up test/control groups
• Select marketing channels, campaign volumes and marketing offers
• Identify success criteria
• Establish campaign and portfolio reports

The Customer Marketing Suite for Utility Companies can deliver these benefits:

• Predict future actions by your customers so you can segment and target the right sets of customers with information that is relevant to them.
• Reduce “offer fatigue,” which occurs when you repeatedly send information and/or offers to customers for whom it is irrelevant.
• Simplify campaign planning and development cycles.
• Go to market faster with campaigns that maximize results in less time.
• Accelerate return on marketing investment to support utility company objectives.
