Marketing segmentation involves dividing your audience into homogeneous groups. These groups, known as segments, are formed on the basis of common characteristics such as:

• preferences
• behaviours
• needs

The main aim of segmentation is to enable targeted and personalised communication. By sending specific messages to each segment.

Segmentation, ideal for boosting engagement and conversion

By segmenting an audience, you can send personalised messages that correspond to the expectations and specific needs of each group. It is then possible to create marketing campaigns tailored to each segment. Using a language, tone, offers and content that resonate with them.

Improving relations with prospects and customers

Strengthening the relationship with your customers and prospects is essential. Send personalised messages that take account of individual preferences. You’ll show your audience that you understand them and care about their specific needs. This fosters a feeling of closeness and trust. This can lead to increased customer loyalty and improved overall satisfaction.

For this audience, you also choose to send an email the next day (D+1). However, this time, the focus is on engaging them to return, play again, and score more points to increase their chances of participating in a raffle or lottery.

You can highlight the attractive rewards or prizes that can be won. By offering this additional opportunity, you boost user engagement and excitement. They will aim to improve their score to increase their chance of winning.
