• {{segmentation_goal}}: Optional: what you want to achieve (e.g., increase retention, boost cross-sell).

Instructions

2. Analyze the data to identify natural segments based on demographics, behavior, or preferences.
3. For each segment, describe defining characteristics and size.
4. Recommend tailored marketing strategies and personalized experiences for each segment.
5. Suggest metrics to evaluate the performance of each segment's campaigns.

Output format

• A segmentation report with: segment profiles, strategic recommendations, and success metrics.

Guardrails
