How to get gold from a data mine
Article Abstract:
Marketers can follow four rules to make database mining a successful effort. The first is that databases should have the most relevant household information that will allow marketers to choose consumers that would most likely become customers. The second is that marketers should also know who their best customers are and what characteristics they share. The third is that prospective clients should be interested in direct-to-consumer offers. The last is to make sure the marketing team understands the product or service being sold or offered.
