Frequently Asked Questions
What is marketing segmentation?
Marketing segmentation is the process of dividing your marketing contacts into different buckets that best apply to them so you can market to them effectively. How you separate them is up to you, but ActiveCampaign users can group contacts using things like location, website behavior, purchase history, quiz results, and hundreds more.
How can segmentation enhance your inbound marketing efforts?
Segmentation is a great way to learn more about the leads you’ve brought in through inbound marketing. While something like a billboard can’t possibly be relevant to every person who sees it, segmentation marketing means sending personalized digital billboards to your leads.
What is behavioral segmentation in marketing?
Behavioral segmentation is grouping your contact lists solely based on how they’ve interacted with your marketing. That means automatically sending specific content to people who have watched specific videos, clicked on certain links, or saved downloadables like white papers.
