Method and system for managing customer network value

Abstract

A method, system and computer program product are disclosed for evaluating a customer network value of a set of customers for a given marketing campaign, said method comprising the steps of storing for each customer static information, collecting for each customer, historical and time cumulative network behavior data, building a customer network map from network behavior data said map describing network relation between nodes, one node representing one customer, computing the social network parameters for the nodes of the network map, selecting the most relevant social network parameters according to the objectives of the given marketing campaign, and, computing for each customer a Customer Network Value Index (NVI) by combining the most relevant social network parameters and static information. When a static information profile is defined for an extended customer population, applying data mining techniques on this population allows estimating a probabilistic NVI for each customer in the extended customer population for which no NVI has been computed.
