Abstract: According to various aspects of the subject technology, systems and methods for analyzing consumption data associated with a user to determine a projected consumption cost for the user. The projected consumption cost can indicate an expected monetary cost that the user will be required to pay for resource consumption during a specified time period. If it is determined that the projected consumption cost exceeds a threshold consumption cost indicating that the projected consumption cost of the user will be high, the user can be provided with one or more use reports notifying the user that the user's projected consumption cost will be high for the time period. The use reports can warn the user that a high bill should be expected, thereby reducing bill shock and ensuing call center calls.

Abstract: A determination is produced as to the number of leads that can be provided from a system to a target business entity, wherein the leads are generated from a plurality of platforms. The platforms may include platforms that comprise system sources for leads, i.e., sources that are internal or organic to the system, for which it is unnecessary to pay third parties for the leads. The platforms may also include platforms that comprise external sources for leads, such that the leads must be purchased from the external sources. In response to parameters related to the target business entity, an estimated number of leads per unit time is generated for a range of payments to the system by the target business entity. The number of leads to be originated from each of the respective platforms is determined by business rules preferences, which may be specified by the target business entity.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with generating a price schedule are described. A inventory quantity for the item is allocated amongst a plurality of customer segments based at least on a predicted contribution of each customer segment to the objective function. For each customer segment, based at least on a quantity of inventory allocated to the customer segment, a promotion portion of the price schedule is determined that maximizes the objective function. A quantity of remaining inventory allocated to the plurality of customer segments at the end of the regular season is aggregated. Based at least on the aggregated inventory, a markdown portion of the price schedule for the item is determined that maximizes the objective function. The promotion portion and the markdown portion are combined to create a price schedule for the item.
