Abstract
The goal of this study is to examine the determinants of customer profit contribution of a
pharmaceutical company using a large Taiwanese pharmaceutical firm as an example. The
empirical results show that average customer order size, total annual order amount, and new
product purchase ratio are all positively and significantly associated with customer profit
contribution, while customer maintenance cost is negatively and significantly associated with
customer profit contribution. From an academic perspective, this study contributes to the
related literature on the analysis of customer profit contribution. From a practical
perspective, the result of this study suggests that a firm may adjust its customer relationship
management strategy according to the determinants of customer profit contribution to
improve its operating performance and firm value.
