- Preview you contacts and click on create segment
- New segment will be created and will be available in Segments and lists section. Please note, it may take some time to create the segment if your contact list is large
B. Creating a custom High Value customers segment
Apart from the default pre-built segment you can also tweak the segment conditions and use these three approaches to determine a high value customer:
- Frequent Buyers: Customers who have made a minimum number of purchases within a designated timeframe.
- High Spenders: Customers who have surpassed a specified threshold of spending over a certain period.
- Combined Criteria: Customers who meet either a minimum purchase count or expenditure limit within a defined time frame.
It is crucial to include a time-based constraint when defining your high value customers. Otherwise, you might include inactive or long-term customers who don't qualify as high value.
- Frequent Buyers Use the segment definition User shopify activity→ Placed order → occurred → more than → X in the last 365 days. Use a number X that is slightly higher than your average customer's number of orders per year.
2. High Spenders Use the segment definition -User shopify activity→ Placed order → occurred → atleast → 1 in the last 365 days→ where Total sum values of all orders →is greater than →X Use a revenue number X that is slightly higher than your average customer's yearly spend.
3. Combined Criteria Use the segment definition User shopify activity→ Placed order → occurred → more than → X in the last 365 days →where Total sum values of all orders →is greater than →Y . Use order frequency X and revenue Y that is slightly above average for a customer in a given year
