Abstract: Marketing intelligence is adopted by most global firms to support decision-making, identify potential opportunities and plan appropriate strategies. This paper concentrates on customers' perceptions as a rich, systematic, objective, and intelligent source that supplies strategic marketing planning knowledge. This idea is executed through distilling a perceptual map from mining customers' perceptions via data mining techniques and tools. In this paper, a practical intelligence framework is proposed to integrate marketing resources and information systems techniques in order to maintain a deep understanding of the soundness of data. After application on a real case study for fast food restaurants brands in Jordan, the proposed framework has proven to display promising results.
