Systems and methods for the selection of the promotions are provided. A set of possible offers are initially received, each including a set of variables, with each variable having a set of possible values. These form a combination of variable values for each offer. A heuristic is applied to all possible offers to reduce the number of offers being considered. The combination of variable values for these reduced number offers is converted into a vector value, which is then scored, ranked and the top ranked offers are selected for inclusion in a promotional campaign. The remaining offers are then analyzed to select additional offers to include into the promotional campaign which maximizing a determinant for the selected offers using their vectors. All selected offers are administer in a promotional test campaign across many consumer segments. Feedback from the campaign may be collected to generate a "general" offer.
