Segments
A segment is a specific group of users categorized based on their demographic or behavioral characteristics.
Segmentation is the key to personalization. By dividing users into segments, businesses can create more targeted and relevant messages that resonate with users' individual needs and preferences.
You can create and manage segments at Segments.
- 1.Name a segment
- 2.Choose filters and fill in the data
- 3.Add 'And' or 'Or' clause to combine the filters
- 4.Save your segment
Use filters, 'And' or 'Or' clauses to create a variety of segments.
- 'And' clause: Devices that meet all filters will be included in the segment
- 'Or' clause: Devices that meet any of the filters will be included in the segment
Integrating User ID and Tags will help you to create more targeted segments. (See Developer's Guide for more details). Especially by integrating Tags, you can create segments such as buyers, non-buyers, users with more than 1 item in the shopping cart and much more.
- User ID: Unique identifier you have assigned to your app or website users. This helps to segment the customers into registered users and non-registered users.
- Tags: A form of metadata that you can add to your customers, such as name, gender or VIP status.
FlareLane allows booleans (true/false), numbers and strings (alpha-numeric characters). Numbers must follow the Unix timestamp millisecond format (See Developer's Guide for more details).
