A product segment is a set of ecommerce items that Connectif generates automatically, based on conditions indicated by the user. It allows you to have groups of products available in real time for use in different strategies.
1. Properties
- Product segments are created based on one or more characteristics you want to work with. Items will only be included in the segment if they meet all the criteria. For example: the brand, price above a certain amount, the name, etc.
- Connectif continuously evaluates the product catalog in real time for inclusion in the segment.
- If an item meets all the established conditions, it will belong to the segment.
- If an item no longer fulfils one of the conditions, it will be removed from the segment.
- Product segments are always active and up to date, allowing you to sustain long-term strategies consistently and effectively.
2. How it’s used in Connectif
