Real-time marketing refers to marketing strategies that are initiated and executed in real time, often in response to current events, customer^[2] behavior, or market trends. This approach, which gained prominence in the mid-1990s, allows businesses to engage with their customers instantly, making their marketing efforts more relevant and timely. Real-time marketing strategies are implemented using specialized software solutions, which typically involve server-side installations and client components. These technologies enable dynamic decision-making based on customer interactions, often using techniques such as naive Bayesian probability classifiers. Despite early challenges, real-time marketing has evolved to incorporate modern platforms and trends, including mobile, location-based services, and social networking. Today, it is considered a crucial aspect of a coherent enterprise marketing strategy^[1], often managed through Marketing Resource Management (MRM) applications.

Real-time marketing is marketing performed "on-the-fly" to determine an appropriate or optimal approach to a particular customer at a particular time and place. It is a form of market research inbound marketing that seeks the most appropriate offer for a given customer sales opportunity, reversing the traditional outbound marketing (or interruption marketing) which aims to acquire appropriate customers for a given 'pre-defined' offer. The dynamic 'just-in-time' decision making behind a real-time offer aims to exploit a given customer interaction defined by website clicks or verbal contact centre conversation.
