Abstract

Customer Lifetime Value (CLV) modeling has emerged as a critical component for sustainable growth in the competitive US e-commerce landscape. This study presents a comprehensive framework for implementing machine learning and big data analytics to enhance CLV prediction accuracy and strategic decision-making. Through analysis of data from major US e-commerce platforms including Amazon, Shopify merchants, and direct-to-consumer brands, we demonstrate how advanced analytical techniques can improve CLV prediction accuracy by up to 34% compared to traditional methods. Our research introduces a hybrid modeling approach combining RFM analysis, cohort-based modeling, and ensemble machine learning algorithms, validated through real-world case studies from the US market. The findings reveal that personalized CLV models significantly outperform generic approaches, with implications for customer acquisition strategies, retention programs, and revenue optimization.
