Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a response amount prediction system for predicting a response amount when a catalog is sent to a customer. 2. Description of the Related Art A mail-order business predicts the response amount (order amount) and response rate (rate of ordered customers) of a catalog based on the results of catalogs distributed in the same period last year. There are differences in the economy, climate, and other factors between last year and this year, and the trends are not necessarily the same as last year. To make more accurate forecasts, many major mail-order companies publish pre-catalogs to some of their customers before publishing the catalog. The pre-catalog was sent to the customer, and the manager determined the number of catalogs to be sent this year with a long-term feeling by referring to the actual orders received at that time. [0003] For this reason, it is not possible to accurately predict the response amount, and to predict the accurate response amount based on the actual orders received when the pre-catalog was sent last year and this year. It was desired to provide a means for doing so. [0004] The present invention solves these problems,
The adjustment coefficient k is calculated based on the past and current pre-catalog response amounts (actual results), and the predicted response amount is calculated by applying the target customer information to the regression equation created from the past customer information and the like. The purpose is to calculate a highly accurate predicted response amount in consideration of the adjustment coefficient k and determine the number of catalogs to be sent. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the principle of the present invention. In FIG. 1, a response amount prediction system 1 calculates a predicted response amount based on past customer information 6 and predicted target customer information 7, and calculates a response amount of a past pre-catalog and a predicted target pre-catalog ( This is for adjusting the predicted response amount based on the (results), and includes a response amount predicting unit 2, an adjustment coefficient calculating unit 3, and a predicted response amount calculating unit 4. The response amount predicting means 2 calculates the predicted response amount by applying the customer information 7 to be predicted to the equation 61 created based on the past customer information 6. The adjustment coefficient calculating means 3 calculates an adjustment coefficient k corresponding to a difference between the response amount (actual) 9 of the current pre-catalog and the response amount (actual) 8 of the past pre-catalog. [0007] The predicted response amount calculating means 4 adds an adjustment coefficient k to the calculated predicted response amount.
Is added to calculate the predicted response amount.
The past customer information 6 is customer information such as a past customer order record. [0008] The customer information 7 to be predicted is customer information to be predicted. Past pre-catalog response amount 8
Is the response amount (actual result) from the customer when the past pre-catalog was sent. [0009] The response amount 9 of the pre-catalog to be predicted is the response amount (actual result) from the customer when the pre-catalog to be predicted was sent. The predicted response amount 10 is the predicted response amount when sending the journal catalog to be predicted. According to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, the response amount predicting means 2 generates an equation 61 based on past customer information 6.
The estimated response amount is calculated by applying the customer information 7 to be predicted to (for example, the regression equation 61), and the adjustment coefficient calculating means 3 converts the response amount (actual) 9 of the current pre-catalog into the response amount of the past pre-catalog ( An adjustment coefficient k corresponding to the difference of (actual result) 8 is calculated, and a predicted response amount in which the adjustment coefficient k is added to the predicted response amount of the prediction target calculated by the predicted response amount calculation means 4 is calculated. An equation 61 (for example, a regression equation 6) created by the response amount prediction means 2 based on the past customer information 6
The estimated response amount is calculated by applying the customer information 7 to be predicted to 1), and the adjustment coefficient calculating means 3 uses the response amount (actual) 9 of the current pre-catalog with the response amount (actual) 8 of the past pre-catalog. The divided adjustment coefficient k is calculated, and the predicted response amount is calculated by multiplying the predicted response amount calculated by the predicted response amount calculation means 4 by the adjustment coefficient k. At this time, the sending time of the past pre-catalog and the sending time of the present pre-catalog are almost the same,
We are trying to accurately predict fluctuation factors. Therefore, the past and current pre-catalog response amount (actual)
, An adjustment coefficient k is calculated based on the above, and the customer information to be predicted is applied to a regression equation 61 or the like created from past customer information to calculate a prediction response amount, and a highly accurate prediction response taking into account the adjustment coefficient k is calculated. By calculating the amount of money, it is possible to calculate a more accurate predicted response amount and determine the number of catalogs to be sent. Next, the configuration and operation of an embodiment of the present invention will be sequentially described in detail with reference to FIGS. First, the overall operation of sending a catalog will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 is an overall explanatory diagram of catalog sending. In FIG. 2, S1 plans a catalog. This plans a catalog that lists the names and prices of products to be mail-ordered. In step S2, a catalog is created. S3 issues a pre-catalog. This means that before publishing this year's catalog, we publish this year's pre-catalog at the same time as the previous year's pre-catalog, receive orders from customers, calculate the response amount and response rate, etc.
This is to measure the difference between the previous year and this year (quantitatively grasp the fluctuation factors). In step S4, an adjustment coefficient is calculated. This is S
3. The difference between the total response amount (actual) and the response amount (actual) of the same period of the previous year received from the order received from the customer when the pre-catalog was published in this year. The value (adjustment coefficient k) divided by the response amount is calculated (described later with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4). In step S5, a response amount is predicted. This is to predict a response amount obtained by multiplying the predicted response amount at the time of this year's catalog, which is a prediction target, based on the customer information at the time of the previous year's catalog, by the adjustment coefficient k calculated at S4 (FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 to be described later). In step S6, customers are extracted. This is based on the predicted response amount at the time of this year's catalog catalog predicted in S5, and, for example, a customer who sends a journal catalog with a predetermined predicted response amount or more is extracted. In step S7, a DM label is issued. This is S
The address and name of the customer extracted in step 6 are printed on a DM (direct mail) label. In S8, the catalog is sent. This is done by mailing an envelope or the like on which the label is attached in S7 or on which the address and name of the customer are printed. In step S9, an order is placed. In this case, in response to the sending of the catalog in S8, an order is placed so that the products listed in the catalog can be received in time. FIG. 3 shows a case in which the response amount is predicted from S3 to S5 and the catalog is sent to the optimal customer in the flow of the catalog sending described above.
This will be described in detail with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 show operation explanatory diagrams of the present invention. In FIG. 3, S11 prepares past customer information 6. In this case, the customer information described on the right side is prepared as the customer information 6 of the previous year in the same period as the target to be predicted. Here, for example, for customer A, as shown in the figure, customer A, when the spring 1993 catalog was sent, actual order received for the spring 1993 catalog, latest purchase date (X A1 ) 4,300 yen (Y A ), and cumulative number of purchases (X A2 )-Latest purchase amount (X A3 ) ...-Customer B-When sending the Spring 1993 catalog Orders received for the Spring 1993 catalog-Latest purchase date (X B1 ) 0 yen (Y B )-Total number of purchases (X B2 )-Latest purchase amount ( XB3 ) ... In S12, sampling (random) is performed. This is S
Random sampling is performed from 11 past customer information 6. S13 is past customer information 6 after random sampling. In step S14, a statistical analysis (quantification theory 1) is performed. This, as described on the right,
A regression equation (one equation for the whole) is created as shown below. Y = a 0 + a 1 X 1 + a 2 X 2 + a 3 X 3 +... And a 0 , a 1 ,
a 2 , a 3 ... In step S15, the past response amount is stored. This is obtained by storing the past order results of the past customer information 6 in S13 as past response amounts. In step S16, customer information 7 to be predicted is prepared. Here, customer information to be predicted at the time of sending the spring 1994 catalog is prepared. In step S17, a response amount is predicted. This is, as described on the right side, by applying the customer information 7 to be predicted to the regression equation 61 obtained in S14,
Obtain the predicted response amount for each customer. For example, as shown on the right side, the predicted response amounts are obtained by applying the information of the customers a, b,... In the customer information 7 to be predicted to the regression equation 61 for the customers a, b,. . [0025] Y a = a 0 + a 1 X a1 + a 2 X a2 + a 3 X a3 + ··· Y b = a 0 + a 1 X b1 + a 2 X b2 + a 3 X b3 + ··· ··· S18 is , And S17, which stores the predicted response amounts of the customers to be predicted. In FIG. 4, S19 is the response amount (actual result) of the past pre-catalog. This stores a pre-catalog before the publication of the catalog of the previous year and stores the response amount (actual result) from the customer at that time. S20 is the response amount (actual) of the pre-catalog to be predicted this year. This is a publication of a pre-catalog before the publication of this year's catalog, which is the forecast target of this year, and stores the response amounts (actual results) from customers at that time. In step S21, an adjustment coefficient is calculated. this is,
As noted on the right, Is calculated. This is obtained by dividing the response amount (actual) of the pre-catalog to be predicted stored in S20 by the response amount (actual) of the past pre-catalog stored in S19 to calculate the adjustment coefficient k. In step S22, a predicted response amount taking into account the adjustment coefficient k is calculated. In this case, the predicted response amount calculated by adding the adjustment coefficient k calculated in S21 to the predicted response amount calculated in S21, for example, is added to the predicted response amount calculated in S21 to the predicted response amount calculated in S21 and stored in S18. In step S23, the predicted response amount of the final version calculated in step S22 is stored. S24 is S2
The number of catalogs to be sent is determined based on the predicted response amount in consideration of the adjustment coefficient k of the catalog stored in step 3 of the journal.
For example, it is determined that the journal catalog is sent to a customer (the number of customers) whose predicted response amount is 10,000 yen or more. As described above, the adjustment coefficient k obtained by dividing the response amount (actual) of the pre-catalog for the same period in this year by the response amount (actual) of the pre-catalog in the same period in the past is obtained, and the customer information ( The expected response amount is calculated by applying the customer information to be predicted this year to the regression equation 61 created based on the actual results), and the adjustment coefficient k is calculated.
Is calculated by taking into account the fluctuation factors of this year (final version), and the number of catalogs to be sent is determined based on the predicted response amount (final version). As a result, it is possible to calculate a more accurate predicted response amount in consideration of the fluctuation factors of the previous year and this year, and determine an accurate number of catalogs to be sent. As described above, according to the present invention,
The predicted response amount is calculated by applying the customer information 7 to be predicted to the regression equation 61 created based on the past customer information 6, and the response amount of the pre-catalog for the same period of the previous year and this year ( Since the configuration is adopted in which the predicted response amount taking into account the fluctuation factors is multiplied by the adjustment coefficient k calculated from the (actual result), a more accurate response amount taking into account the fluctuation factors can be predicted.
Then, referring to the calculated predicted response amount,
For example, it is possible to easily determine that a catalog is sent to customers whose predicted response amount is from the top to 80%.
