Data Mining (DM) is a powerful new technique to help companies discover the patterns and trends in their customers' preferences. It is also a well-known tool for customer relationship management (CRM). Data mining methodology has made a tremendous contribution for researchers wanting to extract hidden knowledge and information. This study has proposed a new procedure, based on an expanded RFM model, by including two additional parameters D and C. It constructs a model for clustering customer value based on RFMDC attributes and K-means algorithm. We evaluate the result and suggest suitable behavior policies for each cluster. The developed methodology has been implemented for Kalleh dairy company in Iran to illustrate the proposed procedure.
