Dynamic Audience Segments

Dynamic segments in Recotap are rule-based audiences that automatically update as new accounts meet or fall out of the criteria you define.
These segments are powerful for always-on campaigns, ongoing retargeting, or progressive nurturing—ensuring your campaigns remain fresh and relevant without manual intervention.

How Dynamic Segments Work

When you create a Dynamic Segment, you’re essentially telling Recotap to watch for accounts that meet a combination of filters. These filters can be based on account attributes, intent signals, website behavior, or campaign activity. Once an account qualifies based on the conditions set, it is automatically included in the segment. Similarly, if an account no longer meets the criteria, it will be removed—making your segment self-refreshing.

Filter Categories Available

You can define a dynamic segment by setting one or more of the following filter types: Advanced Logic with Filter Groups To create more complex segmentation logic, Recotap allows:
  1. Filter Within a Group Apply multiple conditions that refine a specific behavior or activity. Example: Accounts with
    • Ad Impressions > 5 AND
    • Clicks > 1 (Within the same group)
  2. New Filter Group Create entirely separate logic blocks combined with AND/OR logic. Example:
    • Group 1: Recotap Ad Activity → Ad Impressions > 5
    • Group 2: Website Activity → Visited “Pricing Page” in last 7 days (Result: Only accounts matching both groups will qualify.)
Using groups helps you model complex buying behavior, such as combining ad engagement + website behavior + high intent from third-party platforms like G2 or Bombora. Segment 5.png

✅ Best Practices for Creating Dynamic Audience Segments

  1. Start with a Clear Goal Define the purpose of the segment—awareness, retargeting, sales engagement, or nurturing. This ensures filters align with campaign objectives.
  2. Use Multi-Signal Criteria Combine signals like intent, engagement, and fit for better accuracy. Example: G2 Score > 60 + Ad Impressions > 5 + Journey Stage = Consideration
  3. Avoid Over-Segmenting Using too many filters can make your audience too narrow. Stick to 3–5 high-impact filters.
  4. Use Filter Groups Smartly Create grouped logic (e.g., “Website Activity” + “Ad Clicks”) to make conditions clearer and maintainable.
  5. Apply Time-Bound Logic Add recency to your filters. Example: “Website visit in the last 10 days” is more useful than “Visited product page (anytime)”.
  6. Regularly Audit Segments Review segment size, performance, and engagement every 2–4 weeks. Tweak filters to keep them relevant.
  7. Exclude Irrelevant Accounts Add negative filters to remove closed-lost deals, existing customers, or bounced contacts.
  8. Label Your Segments Clearly Use naming conventions like: TOFU_G2+Ads_Last7Days or Expansion_Customer_US_Healthcare

How Dynamic Audience Segments Help Solve ABM Marketing Challenges

As a marketer running ABM programs, targeting the right accounts at the right time with relevant messaging is always the goal—but also the challenge. Here’s how dynamic segments directly help solve key pain points: 🔄 1. Challenge: Static Lists Go Outdated Fast Solution: Dynamic segments auto-refresh as account behaviors change—so you’re never targeting stale or irrelevant accounts. 🧭 2. Challenge: Difficulty in Aligning Messaging to Journey Stages Solution: Create segments based on journey stage filters. Engage accounts with TOFU, MOFU, or BOFU content depending on where they are. ⚙️ 3. Challenge: Manual Segmentation is Time-Consuming Solution: Use Recotap’s filter logic (AND/OR, groups) to automate segmentation using behavior, intent, and CRM signals. 🧊 4. Challenge: Cold Outreach to Low-Intent Accounts Solution: Dynamically build high-intent segments using G2, Bombora, or sales engagement filters—ensuring sales focuses only on warm/hot accounts. 📉 5. Challenge: Ad Spend Wastage on Unengaged Accounts Solution: Filter based on Recotap ad engagement (e.g., impressions + clicks > threshold) to only include active accounts in ad campaigns.
