CRM Segmentation Planner
Define segments that are useful for targeting, not just easy to query. Focus on segments that enable different messaging or actions.
Quick Reference
Key Insight: Segments should drive different messaging or actions. If two segments get the same treatment, merge them.
When to Activate
Activate when the user asks to:
- segment contacts or users
- plan lifecycle campaigns
- qualify leads
- personalize messaging by segment
Workflow
Step 1: Define Goal
Identify what the segmentation enables:
- lifecycle campaigns (onboarding, activation, retention)
- lead qualification (MQL, SQL, opportunity)
- personalization (industry, size, behavior)
Step 2: Map Segment Types
Reference references/segment-types.md:
Firmographic – Company size, industry, region when B2B relevance differs
Behavioral – Product usage, content engagement, feature adoption
Lifecycle – Leads, trials, active users, expansion candidates, at-risk users
Intent-Based – Actions that indicate near-term buying or upgrade interest
Step 3: Define Segment Criteria
For each segment:
- clear definition (who is in, who is out)
- data source or field required
- messaging or action difference
- refresh cadence
Step 4: Output Structure
Produce:
- segment list with definitions
- criteria and data requirements
- suggested messaging or campaign use
- overlap and exclusion rules
