Understanding Audiences

Audiences are groups of customers who share similar characteristics, behaviors, or interests. Strong audience targeting is the foundation of effective campaigns—it ensures your message reaches the right people at the right time.

AI-Powered Audience Generation

The easiest way to create audiences: Simply describe who you want to reach in plain English, and markopolo's AI generates targeted segments for you.

How it works:

  1. Set campaign basics – Enter your campaign name and select your language

  2. Describe your audience – Write a natural description of who you want to target

Examples:

  • "Customers who bought shoes in the last 60 days"

  • "High-value customers interested in electronics"

  • "People who browsed but didn't purchase last month"

  • "Subscribers who opened our last 3 emails"

  1. Review generated templates – The AI returns multiple audience segments with specific targeting criteria

  2. Select your audiences – Choose one or multiple templates that fit your campaign goals

What Are Audience Templates?

Audience templates are ready-to-use customer segments that include:

  • Targeting criteria – Specific rules that define who's included

  • Expected audience size – Estimated number of customers

  • Behavioral patterns – Common actions or characteristics

  • Recommended use cases – Best ways to engage this segment

You can select multiple templates to reach different segments with the same campaign.

Using Saved Audiences

Already have audiences from previous campaigns? You can reuse them!

Features:

  • Browse all your catalogued audiences

  • Search by name using the built-in search tool

  • View recommended clusters based on campaign context

  • Mix saved audiences with newly generated ones

  • Navigate large lists with pagination

Pro tip: Regularly save your successful audience segments so you can quickly reuse them in future campaigns.

What Are Clusters?

Clusters are advanced customer segments that group people by:

  • Similar purchase behaviors

  • Common characteristics and demographics

  • Engagement patterns with your brand

  • Historical interaction data

When you select clusters, markopolo stores them in your campaign settings and uses them for precision targeting. Clusters are particularly powerful for identifying customers with high conversion potential.
