With Lightspeed data, you can create highly targeted dynamic segments in Xendy. For example, you can filter by the number of purchases a customer has made, the total order value, or how long it has been since someone last placed an order. You can also select based on specific products or product categories that have or have not been purchased. This allows you to easily target campaigns to customers who ordered recently, loyal buyers with a high order value, or customers who have not been active for some time.
