Abstract

Methods and systems for customer performance scoring are provided. In one embodiment a method and system for customer performance scoring can include receiving user identification information. Based at least in part on the user identification information, a customer performance score can be determined. Based at least in part on the customer performance score, an offer to extend to an online user can be determined.

Claims

1. A method for providing an online offer, comprising:

receiving user identification information;

based at least in part on the user identification information, determining a customer performance score;

based at least in part on the customer performance score, determining an offer to extend to an online user.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

transmitting the offer to the online user.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein receiving user identification information comprises receiving previously stored user information from one or more data storage devices.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein determining a customer performance score comprises:

determining at least one persistence attribute based at least in part on the user identification information;

determining at least one value attribute based at least in part on the user identification information; and

combining the at least one persistence attribute with the at least one value attribute.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein determining an offer to extend to an online user comprises:

comparing the customer performance score against a plurality of predetermined scores and corresponding offers; and

upon matching at least one of the plurality of predetermined scores, selecting at least one of the plurality of corresponding offers.

6. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

generating an output comprising a distribution of one or more offers provided to online users wherein the distribution is based on at least one of the following;

customer performance score, volume, or revenue.

7. A method for determining a customer performance score, comprising:

based at least in part on a persistence attribute, determining at least one persistence factor;

based at least in part on a value attribute, determining at least one value factor; and

based at least in part on the at least one persistence factor and the at least one value factor, determining a customer performance score indicative of a customer'"'"'s performance relative to other customers.

8. The method of claim 7, further comprising:

receiving user information from at least one of the following;

user input or from one or more data storage devices; and

based at least in part on the user information, determining a persistence attribute and a value attribute.

9. The method of claim 7, wherein determining at least one persistence factor comprises weighting the persistence attribute;

and wherein determining at least one value factor comprises weighting the value attribute.

10. The method of claim 7, wherein determining a customer performance score comprises:

combining the persistence factor with the value factor.

11. The method of claim 7, further comprising:

based at least in part on the customer performance score, providing an offer to the online user.

12. The method of claim 11, wherein providing an offer to the online user comprises:

comparing the customer performance score against a plurality of predetermined scores and corresponding offers; and

upon matching at least one of the plurality of predetermined scores, selecting at least one of the plurality of corresponding offers.

13. The method of claim 11, further comprising:

generating an output comprising a distribution of one or more offers provided to online users wherein the distribution is based on at least one of the following;

customer performance score, volume, or revenue.

14. A system for providing an online offer, comprising:

a processor operable to;

receive user identification information;

determine a customer performance score based at least in part on the user identification information; and

determine an offer to extend to an online user based at least in part on the customer performance score.

15. The system of claim 14, wherein the processor is further operable to:

transmit the offer to the online user.

16. A system for determining a customer performance score, comprising:

a processor operable to;

determine at least one persistence factor based at least in part on a persistence attribute;

determine at least one value factor based at least in part on a value attribute; and

determine a customer performance score indicative of a customer'"'"'s performance relative to other customers based at least in part on the at least one persistence factor and the at least one value factor.

17. The system of claim 16, further comprising:

receiving user information from at least one of the following;

user input or from one or more data storage devices; and

based at least in part on the user information, determining a persistence attribute and a value attribute.

18. The system of claim 16, further comprising:

providing an offer to the online user based at least in part on the customer performance score.

19. The system of claim 16, further comprising:

generating an output comprising a distribution of one or more offers provided to online users wherein the distribution is based on at least one of the following;

customer performance score, volume, or revenue.

20. A method for receiving an online offer, comprising:

transmitting user identification information;

receiving an online offer based at least in part on a customer performance score, wherein the customer performance score comprises at least one persistence component and at least one value component, the at least one persistence component and at least one value component based at least in part on user identification information; and

transmitting an acceptance or decline of the online offer.
