University of Nebraska Lincoln
Definition
• DATA MINING: exploration & analysis– by automatic means– of large quantities of data– to discover actionable patterns & rules
• Data mining a way to utilize massive quantities of data that businesses generate
Retail Outlets
• Bar coding & Scanning generate masses of data– customer service– inventory control– MICROMARKETING– CUSTOMER PROFITABILITY ANALYSIS– MARKET BASKET ANALYSIS
FINGERHUT
• Founded 1948– today sends out 130 different catalogs– to over 65 million customers– 6 terabyte data warehouse– 3000 variables of 12 million most active
customers– over 300 predictive models
• Focused marketing
Fingerhut
• Purchased by Federated Department Stores for $1.7 billion in 1999 (for database)
• Fingerhut had $1.6 to $2 billion business per year, targeted at lower-income households
• Can mail 400,000 packages per day
• Each product line has its own catalog
Fingerhut
• Uses segmentation, decision tree, regression, neural network tools from SAS and SPSS
• Segmentation - combines order & demographic data with product offerings– can target mailings to greatest payoff
• customers who recently had moved tripled their purchasing 12 weeks after the move
• send furniture, telephone, decoration catalogs

Initial Look at Data
• Want to know features of those who spend a lot dining out
• INCLUDE AS MANY ACTIONABLE VARIABLES AS POSSIBLE– things you can identify
• Manipulate data– sort on most likely indicator (dine out)
Sorted by Dine Out

Analysis
• Best indicators– marital status– groceries
• Available– marital status might be easier to get
Fingerhut
• Mailstream optimization– which customers most likely to respond to
existing catalog mailings– save near $3 million per year– reversed trend of catalog sales industry in 1998– reduced mailings by 20% while increasing net
earnings to over $37 million
Banking
• Among first users of data mining
• Used to find out what motivates their customers (reduce churn)

Mortgage Market
• Early 1990s - massive refinancing
• need to keep customers happy to retain
• contact current customers who have rates significantly higher than market– a major change in practice– data mining & telemarketing increased Crestar
Mortgage’s retention rate from 8% to over 20%
Banking
• Fleet Financial Group – $30 million data warehouse– hired 60 database marketers,
statistical/quantitative analysts & DSS specialists
– expect to add $100 million in profit by 2001

little coordination– Developed offers for customers
CREDIT SCORING
• Data warehouse including demand deposits, savings, loans, credit cards, insurance, annuities, retirement
programs, securities underwriting, other
• Statistical & mathematical models (regression) to predict repayment
CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT (CRM)
• understanding value customer provides to firm– Kathleen Khirallah - The Tower Group

– Deloitte • only 31% of senior bank executives confident that
their current distribution mix anticipated customer needs

Credit Card Management
• Very profitable industry
• Card surfing - pay old balance with new card
• promotions typically generate 1000 responses, about 1%
• in early 1990s, almost all mass-marketing
• data mining improves (lift)
LIFT
• LIFT = probability in class by sample divided by probability in class by population– if population probability is 20% and
sample probability is 30%,
LIFT = 0.3/0.2 = 1.5
• best lift not necessarily bestneed sufficient sample size
as confidence increases, longer list but lower lift
Lift Example
• Product to be promoted
• Sampled over 10 identifiable segments of potential buying population– Profit $50 per item sold– Mailing cost $1– Sorted by Estimated response rates

discounts, to new product offers– Determine who
• to offer new service to
• those most likely to commit fraud
Human Resource Management
• Identify individuals liable to leave company without additional compensation or benefits
• Firm may already know 20% use 80% of offered services– don’t know which 20%– data mining (business intelligence) can identify

requirements
• State of Mississippi’s MERLIN network– 30 databases (finance, payroll, personnel, capital
projects)– Cognos Impromptu system - 230 users
CASINOS
• Casino gaming one of richest data sets known
• Harrah’s - incentive programs– about 8 million customers hold Total Gold
cards, used whenever the customer spends money in the casino
