How does segmentation improve automation performance?

Segmentation divides your audience so automations can deliver more relevant content to each group:

Relevance improvements:

Product recommendations matching purchase history. Messaging tone appropriate to customer lifecycle stage. Content depth matching demonstrated interest level. Offers aligned with purchase behavior.

Performance impact:

Higher open rates from more relevant subject lines. Better click rates from content that matches interests. Improved conversions from aligned offers. Lower complaint rates from appropriate frequency and content.

Segmentation dimensions:

Behavioral: Based on actions taken. Demographic: Based on customer attributes. Lifecycle: Based on relationship stage. Engagement: Based on email interaction history.

Without segmentation, automation sends the same message to everyone. With segmentation, each recipient gets communication appropriate to their context.

Segmentation is the foundation of relevance. Automation executes at scale; segmentation ensures that scale does not mean sameness.
