Adaptive lead generation for marketing

A method for adaptively generating leads, the method performed by at least one processor, comprising:

• receiving, by the at least one processor, first execution cycle data comprising a first lead and a second lead from a lead interface, wherein the first lead comprises first lead information describing a first potential customer and the second lead comprises second lead information describing a second potential customer;
• determining, by the at least one processor, that a first lead score for the first lead is greater than a lead score threshold;
• determining, by the at least one processor, that a second lead score for the second lead is less than the lead score threshold;
• generating, by the at least one processor, a set of filtered leads including the first lead information based on the assigned lead score to the first lead;
• determining, by the at least one processor, a scrub rate, wherein the scrub rate describes a portion of the first execution cycle data having lead scores lower than the first lead score threshold, wherein the scrub rate is a ratio of a number of customers removed from the system;
• determining a mean scrub rate of a plurality of historical scrub rates to generate the analysis window scrub rate;
• determining whether the scrub rate threshold is more than two standard deviations higher than the mean scrub rate;
• determining, by an adjustment evaluator on the at least one processor, that the scrub rate is greater than an analysis window scrub rate by more than a scrub rate threshold;
• automatically adjusting the score threshold using the adjustment evaluator on by the at least one processor in response to the determination that the scrub rate is greater than the analysis window scrub rate by more than the scrub rate threshold wherein a guard-rail enforcer component controls the severity of the adjustment and prevents a predetermined number of score threshold adjustments in a predetermined time period;
• receiving, by the at least one processor, second execution cycle data comprising a third lead from the lead interface comprising third lead information describing a third potential customer, wherein the first execution cycle data comprises leads received during an observation period shorter than the analysis window, and wherein the system is further programmed to receive lead score data describing lead scores for at least one lead received during the observation period and at least one lead received during the analysis window and not during the observation period;
• determining, by the at least one processor, that a third lead score for the third lead is greater than the adjusted lead score threshold;
• generating, by the at least one processor, a second set of filtered leads including the third lead information based on the assigned lead score to the third lead, wherein the at least one processor sends a message to an administrative user before generating the second set of filtered leads;
• and
• transmitting, by the at least one processor, data to the filtered leads.

A non-transitory machine-readable medium containing instructions which, when read by a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:

• receiving first execution cycle data comprising a first lead and a second lead from a lead interface, wherein the first lead comprises first lead information describing a first potential customer and the second lead comprises second lead information describing a second potential customer;
• determining a first lead score for the first lead is greater than a lead score threshold;
• determining that a second lead score for the second lead is less than the lead score threshold;
• generating, by the at least one processor, a set of filtered leads including the first lead information based on the assigned lead score to the first lead;
• determining a scrub rate wherein the scrub rate describes a portion of the first execution cycle data having lead scores less than the lead score threshold;
• determining, wherein the scrub rate is a ratio of a number of customers removed from the system;
• determining a mean scrub rate of a plurality of historical scrub rates to generate the analysis window scrub rate;
• determining whether the scrub rate threshold is more than two standard deviations higher than the mean scrub rate;
• determining by an adjustment evaluator that the scrub rate is greater than an analysis window scrub rate by more than a scrub rate threshold;
• adjusting by the adjustment evaluator the lead score threshold wherein a guard-rail enforcer component controls the severity of the adjustment and prevents a predetermined number of score threshold adjustments in a predetermined time period;
• receiving second execution cycle data comprising a third lead from the lead interface comprising third lead information describing a third potential customer, wherein the first execution cycle data comprises leads received during an observation period shorter than the analysis window, and wherein the system is further programmed to receive lead score data describing lead scores for at least one lead received during the observation period and at least one lead received during the analysis window and not during the observation period;
• determining that a third lead score for the third lead is greater than the adjusted lead score threshold;
• generating, by the at least one processor, a second set of filtered leads including the third lead information based on the assigned lead score to the third lead, wherein the at least one processor sends a message to an administrative user before generating the second set of filtered leads;
• and
• transmitting, by the at least one processor, data to the filtered leads.
