Abstract: The key points in customer segmentation are determining target customer groups and satisfying their needs. Recency-Frequency-Monetary (RFM) analysis and K-Means clustering algorithm are the popular methods for customer segmentation when analyzing customer behavior. In our study, we adapt the K-means clustering algorithm to RFM model by extracting features that represent RFM aspects of home appliances. Customers with similar RFM-oriented features are assigned to the same clusters, while customers with non-similar RFM-oriented features are assigned to different clusters. In the experiments, clustering achieved the determined threshold for Silhouette Score. The resulting clusters were ranked and named by Customer Lifetime Value (CLV) metric, which measures how valuable a customer is to the business.
