Customer Segmentation by Profitability: Not All Customers Are Equal You have 500 customers. Your top 100 customers (by revenue) generate 70% of revenue, but probably 80% of profit margin. Your bottom 100 customers generate 5% of revenue but probably 8% of costs. When you segment by profitability, you see very different pictures than when you segment by revenue alone. Some high-revenue customers might be low-margin. Some mid-revenue customers might be high-margin. When you identify your most profitable segments, you can make strategic customer acquisition decisions. Chase more customers like your most profitable cohort. De-emphasize acquisition in your lowest-margin segments. You also can make service decisions. Invest CS resources heavily in your highest-margin customers. This is controversial because it sounds like you’re deprioritizing some customers. But the reality is you’re making explicit choices about where to invest. Book a Customer Profitability Analysis with WINsights to segment your customers by margin and show you where to invest CS resources for maximum ROI.
