What is Customer Segmentation?

Dividing customers into groups based on shared traits to target each with relevant messaging.

Customer segmentation is the practice of grouping an audience by shared characteristics — demographics, behaviour, purchase history, interests, or lifecycle stage. Each segment can then receive messaging tailored to its needs.

Segmentation is the opposite of one-size-fits-all blasting. A new lead, a loyal repeat buyer, and a lapsed customer each deserve a different message, and segmentation makes that possible at scale.

The more precise the segments, the more relevant the communication, which lifts engagement and reduces opt-outs.

Why it matters

Segmentation makes every message more relevant, raising conversion and protecting your sender reputation.
