Overview

  • Segment New, Repeat, and Dormant Customers: Effectively understand and manage your store's current customer composition.
  • Repeat Customers: Further categorize into Repeat conversions (first-to-second purchase), previous year retainers, and reactivated dormant customers to easily identify growth and decline factors.
  • Dormant Customers: Break down into last year's purchasers and long-term dormant customers to better target reactivation efforts.

How to Use

  • Daily Data Updates: Use for consistent monitoring and up-to-date insights.
  • Detailed Purchase Analysis: Dive deeper into the products and spending habits of each customer segment for better insights.

Segment Settings

Listed in the order created in ECPower. In ECPower, segments are displayed in descending order by creation date (as of June 2024).

🌎 All/Previous Year Purchasers (Preliminary Work)

Create the "All/Previous Year Purchasers" segment and ensure to link the Shopify customer tag (e.g., "ecp-previous-year-purchasers").

This Shopify customer tag will be used in the creation of other segments.

  • Segment Name: 🌎All/Previous Year Purchasers
  • Description: Customers who made purchases between 730 days (2 years) and 365 days (1 year) ago from the current date.
  • Condition Settings: Customers who placed orders with purchase dates from 730 days to 366 days ago.
  • Tips: The following relationship holds:
    • 🌎All/Previous Year Purchasers = 🎁Repeat/Previous Year Retainers + 👻Dormant/Previous Year Purchasers
  • Note: While customer tag linkage to Shopify is immediate, it won’t appear as an option for segment creation until ECPower re-syncs store data. Store data sync occurs at midnight Japan time. Complete this preliminary work in advance, and proceed with subsequent tasks the following day.
