Abstract
Methods and apparatus for implementing forward looking optimizing promotions by administering, in large numbers and iteratively, test promotions formulated using highly granular test variables on purposefully segmented subpopulations. The responses from individuals in the subpopulations are received and analyzed. The analysis result is employed to subsequently formulate a general public promotion. The test promotions may be repeated continually and iteratively with different test promotions and/or different subpopulations to continue to uncover advantageous correlations between segmentation criteria, test promotion variables, and consumer response and/or to keep up with consumer changing taste.
