Exemplary embodiments provide a computer-assisted method for typing customers/prospects, including the activities of: refining a survey via bestfit clustering; refining survey results via composition analysis; and identifying clusters of customers/prospects from the survey results via champion/challenger cluster refinement and panel analysis.

Method, system, and device for typing customers/prospects

A computer-assisted method for placing each of a plurality of observations into one of a predefined set of clusters is disclosed. The disclosed method includes, for each of a plurality of observations, obtaining a data set containing no more than one proxy value for each of a plurality of variables, each variable having a plurality of possible values, and obtaining a set of first dummy variables having a value indicative of an observation's membership or non-membership (i.e., membership status) in a particular cluster. The disclosed method also includes obtaining a set of second dummy variables each having a value indicative of an observation's having a particular response or lack thereof for a given variable, and, for each observation, regressing the set of first dummy variables on the set of second dummy variables to obtain a linear approximation to a plurality of probabilities that an observation with particular provided values to the plurality of possible values belongs to each particular cluster from the predefined set of clusters.
