Increase Cross-Sell efficiency with Machine Learning (AI)
Marketers holy grail is to find right answers of basic questions of targeting: To whom, what to offer, when to offer at what price. A popular saying illustrating how difficult it was to qualify the response to advertising is attributed to John Wanamaker:
“Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don’t know which half”.
According to our experience X-Sell campaign response rates are actually much lower. Vast majority of campaign response rates -not supported by AI (machine learning) models- are between 1%- 5% depending on industry.
One of the most common goal of our AI projects is to increase efficiency of X-Sell campaigns. In such projects we do analyze data from past campaigns and build response models or in case of campaign-based analysis is not possible, we build look-a-like models based on portfolio overlap.
Then we do score customers based on their affinity of given offer. We build profit charts and optimize campaign audience based on customer affinity score, cost per targeting (call, email), estimated revenue from successful X-Sell.
We apply test and control methodology to validate model and campaign success results. Results are highly dependent on industry, market environment and available data quality.
In our projects we have seen 2X-6X higher response rates increase for X Sell campaigns where audience selected based on Machine Learning models versus control group.
With our solution partners we also help our customers to integrate AI results into their core BAU processes via automating entire process.
AI based Next Best Offer
Next Best Offer (NBO) or Next Best Action (NBA) machine learning models primarily supports outbound channels, email, call center optimization. It helps marketers to resolve evergreen question of sales and marketing. What to offer / X-sell to whom? With our ML, AI solution our clients were able to save call center costs as well as boost X-Sell teams efficiency. At the same time our clients improved customer satisfaction levels thank to tailored, relevant offers to customers.
Custom Machine Learning Models in weeks
We develop custom machine learning models that is tailored for your business and learned on your data. Depending on database availability but most of the AI use-cases described below can be accomplished within a few weeks. Our process is based on Cross Industry Standard Process we add best of agile framework to it make sure we get the highest. The following iterative steps describes 80% of the AI project lifecycle.
Understanding Business Goals to be fulfilled with achieved with AI
In this phase we define together business goals to be achieved with AI / ML , Understanding how a potential AI / ML model can outperform existing status quo process. What is the baseline performance and how we will measure success.
Data Processing for ML
We need to map internal end external data that can improve model performance. It requires a slight of business process mapping from data perspective and some tradeoffs might be made based on the nature of data (availability, price, quality, time to extract). There is no need to have a fully fledged DWH or data lake to get a successful an ML project. (Who has ever seen a complete Data Warehouse or Data Lake?)
AI Model Building
Our experts have trained over 100.000+ Machine Learning models in 100+ projects. Lot of expertise have been accumulated. We also apply our custom AI to tune ML model parameters to get the best possible results for your business.
AI Model Evaluation
Depending on the ML use case we do validate the models on multiple levels before we let the model published for test campaign.
Deployment into production
Deployment of approved models might require some DEVOPS MLOPS both on “caller” and model “serving” side. Serving will depend on the use-case a REST API or batch processing is required.
Machine Learning on site Recommendations
Onsite machine learning recommendations are somewhat different from offline next best offer as they need to process real time session history on top of customer order history. This solution also handles cold start challenges as for new customers we have significantly less information about customer.
Recommendation Engine Types
One of the biggest challenge for most of marketers across industries being it retail, e-commerce what service or product to offer on the next campaign or at next customer touch-point being inbound or outbound. Common approach especially when potential offer palette is relatively small to go for highest revenue regardless customer need.
NBO Recommendation Engine
In a more matured and advanced stage organizations tend to fine tune their campaigns based on earlier results with descriptive or predictive models as described in chapter “Next Best Offer”. That can lead to strong results as long as the offer palette is a few dozen.
We do help our customers with combined AI algorithms to find next best offer that is personalized to the customer level even when there are hundreds thousands of customers and products varieties are over ten thousands threshold. Our solution combines geo-demographics with collaborative filtering and content based filtering to find best offer for the customers customer.
Power of custom Recommendation Engine
For ecommerce you can find off the shelf tools with built in recommendations. That are limited to common fields and features. Off the shelf recommenders are better than nothing, however in most of the cases you have more data that has a significant impact on model efficiency, that is why larger ecommerce sites go for custom built recommendation engines on the top of TCO and ROI considerations.
With our tailored recommendation engine we managed to triple click thru rates in e-commerce.

Machine Learning based Churn Models & Attrition Models
Primary objective – from analytics perspective – of churn management projects is to identify high probability to churn or attrition segment within Portfolio. While we build machine learning, churn predictive models we do identify and share with the customers key drivers of attrition, churn. We also recommend and implement action steps based on findings. We build descriptive dashboards to measure Churn Management Performance based on saved customer value.
Machine Learning in Location Based Offers, Geo-targeting
Customer whereabouts Geospatial information such as home address, frequent path, transaction location can significantly increase targeting accuracy. With our GIS partners we can geocode and enrich customer attributes with public GIS information such as income proxies, property price index, population density, population demographics, location surrounding residential type, town center index, tourism index and couple more that boosts machine learning models accuracy especially when customer level data availability is limited.
Combining GIS public information and our semi automated AI approach helped us to predict which customers will visit which bank branch how many times just within 6 days.
AI combined with GIS data not just greatly improved efficiency of cross-sell campaigns of our customers but significantly boosted offline Door to Door and billboard campaigns efficiency.
Leveraging Machine Learning in Micro Location Analysis
On top of location based targeting with GIS and AI Holistic and GeoX consultants can support business development where to open next branch, restaurant, kiosk. Where they can expect the most customer visit from their preferred segments. We do analysis based on historical performance if it is available, if past performance data is not available for given business we can analyze and predict best performing locations based on competitive environment location analysis.

Todays language is using both -AI and ML- terms interchangeably. Tech oriented people use more frequently Machine Learning whereas in common language AI is more wide spread. In past terminology Machine Learning used to be a subset of Artificial Intelligence.
ML covered development of algorithms that allow computers to learn from data and make predictions or decisions without being explicitly programmed.
AI definition was closer to human intelligence including multiple tasks such as perception, reasoning, understanding.
AI usually means “Narrow AI” that is focusing on specific task and Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) refers to machine that can perform any intellectual task that a human can.
