Abstract

The current era of business growth is fraught with challenges and competition due to rapid technological advancements, rapid market growth, and globalization. This research discusses customer management strategies to enhance Customer Relationship Management (CRM) at PT Digibook Sarana Promosi Indonesia, a company in the digital printing industry. With the emergence of numerous competitors in this challenging business growth era, the k-means algorithm and Length, Recency, Frequency, Monetary (LRFM) model are employed for customer clustering. The results identify two main customer groups. The first group falls into the category of almost lost or uncertain lost customers with the symbol L↓R↑F↓M↓, exhibiting low Customer Lifetime Value (CLV), suggesting a "let go" strategy to focus on more valuable customers. The second group comprises high-value loyal customers with the symbol L↑R↓F↑M↑, demonstrating high CLV, recommending an "enforced" strategy to maintain customer loyalty through loyalty programs. This research indicates that the optimal number of clusters is 2, validated using the ClValid method, with the best values on connectivity, Dunn index, and silhouette.
