Abstract:The ways of maximizing the expected response of an advertising campaign, subject to a budget constraint are explored. Four response functions are examined with closed-form solutions given for the resulting expected responses. The expected responses can be rapidly calculated, since they use only univariate marginal distributions and pairwise duplications. A simple heuristic solution to the formulated non-linear integer programming problem is given, resulting in big savings in computation time over the branch-and-bound technique, for example.
