Customizing fee structures for different customer segments

Begin with a data‑driven audit of purchase frequency and average transaction value per group.

Three‑step framework

1. Segmentation analysis – apply RFM (Recency, Frequency, Monetary) scoring; clusters with scores above 80 % indicate high‑value cohorts, while scores under 30 % mark price‑sensitive cohorts.


2. Cost‑allocation matrix – map internal cost drivers (service time, support tickets, delivery distance) against each cohort; allocate 12 % extra margin to high‑value cohorts, 5 % margin to price‑sensitive ones.


3. Dynamic adjustment schedule – set quarterly review dates; if churn exceeds 4 % within a cohort, reduce margin by 2 percentage points in the next cycle.

Key performance indicators

• Margin uplift – target 6 % increase after first adjustment cycle.


• Retention boost – aim for 3 % reduction in churn per quarter.


• Average revenue per user (ARPU) – raise by $2.50 within six months.

Deploy a rule‑engine that pulls real‑time usage data, applies the matrix, and outputs the tailored price automatically. This eliminates manual calculations and shortens the implementation window to under two weeks.

Implementation checklist

• Integrate CRM with billing platform; ensure API latency stays below 200 ms.


• Validate pricing formulas against regulatory limits; archive audit logs for 12 months.


• Train sales reps on the new tiers; provide a one‑page cheat sheet highlighting the three main tiers.

Result: a flexible pricing engine that reacts to client behavior, boosts profitability, and keeps churn in check without overcomplicating the process.
