Abstract

Capital One has exploited an innovative approach to targeted marketing, based on customer profitability analysis, to achieve impressive performance as a leading credit card issuer. It is sustaining its advantage through investment in infrastructure and personnel, and through constantly improving its expertise through a practice known as test-and-learn. Moreover, it is attempting to generalize this information-based strategy to other industries.
