• Abstract: Uplift modeling is essential for optimizing marketing strategies by selecting individuals likely to respond positively to specific marketing campaigns. This importance escalates in multi-treatment marketing campaigns, where diverse treatment is available and we may want to assign the customers to treatment that can make the most impact. While there are existing approaches with convenient frameworks like Causalml, there are potential spaces to enhance the effect of uplift modeling in multi treatment cases. This paper introduces a novel approach to uplift modeling in multi-treatment campaigns, leveraging score ranking and calibration techniques to improve overall performance of the marketing campaign. We review existing uplift models, including Meta Learner frameworks (S, T, X), and their application in real-world scenarios. Additionally, we delve into insights from multi-treatment studies to highlight the complexities and potential advancements in the field. Our methodology incorporates Meta-Learner calibration and a scoring rank-based offer selection strategy. Extensive experiment results with real-world datasets demonstrate the practical benefits and superior performance of our approach. The findings underscore the critical role of integrating score ranking and calibration techniques in refining the performance and reliability of uplift predictions, thereby advancing predictive modeling in marketing analytics and providing actionable insights for practitioners seeking to optimize their campaign strategies.
