Create dynamic groups of customers based on specific properties.
Understanding customer segments
A customer segment is a group of customers defined by specific properties. These segments are dynamic, automatically including all customers who meet the defined criteria.
Creating customer segments
Accessing the customer list
To create a new customer segment, first navigate to the customer list. Click on the three bars on the left-hand side and go to "Customers". This will display a table of all your customers.
Adding a new segment
On the right-hand side of the customer list, you'll see a list of existing customer segments. To create a new one, click "Add Segment" (the + sign). Name your segment (e.g., "VIP Customers") and define the segment using filters.
Defining segment filters
You can use various filters to define your segment. For example, you might create a segment for high revenue or MRR customers, customers with a specific property (e.g., customers.vip = true), or customers from a specific email domain or account.
Viewing and editing segments
Viewing a segment
To view a segment, go to the Customers page and click on the segment name. This will display all customers in the selected segment.
Editing a segment
To edit a segment, click on the vertical ellipsis (3 vertical dots) next to the segment tab. Then, click on "Options" when viewing the segment and select "Edit Segment". Here you can view and modify the defining properties of the segment.
