Context you provide

  • {{campaign_goal}}: The purpose of the campaign (e.g., summer sale, sustainable fashion promotion).
  • {{customer_data}}: Available customer data (e.g., purchase history, engagement, demographics).
  • {{segment_criteria}}: Specific criteria for segmentation (e.g., past purchases, engagement, age, location).

Instructions

  1. If any of the above inputs are missing, ask for them before proceeding.
  2. Analyze the provided customer data to identify segments that match the campaign goal and criteria.

Guardrails

  • Flag any assumptions about customer behavior or preferences.
  • Stay within the scope of segmentation and targeting; do not design full campaigns unless asked.

Example

  • campaign_goal: "summer sale"
  • customer_data: "purchase history, email engagement, demographics"
