Segmentation rules are the foundation of the Sendwithus segmentation feature. They allow you to query your customer database and pull out customer email addresses that match a specific criteria.
- Email Rule
- This type of rule finds all the customers that meet email template criteria. For example:
- Find customers who have clicked a link in any email ever.
- Find customers who have received the specific email "Free cupcakes!" before July 1, 2015.
- Find customers who have not opened the specific email "Welcome".
- Data Rule
- Use the Data Rule to find customers based on variables in your customer profiles. For example:
- Find customers where first_name is set.
- Find customers where city_name equals Berlin.
- Find customers where company_name is blank.
- Email Address Rule
- The Email Address Rule looks for email addresses that match your criteria. For example:
- Find customers whose email address contains "sendwithus.com".
- Find customers whose email address does not contain "hotmail.com".
- Group Rule
- Use the Group Rule to find customers that are in (or not in) specific groups. For example:
- Find customer that belong to group "Newsletter".
- Find customer that don't to group "Opt-outs".
- Limit Rule
- A Limit Rule will limit the number of customers returned. Useful if you only want to try sending to a specific number of customers.
