Segments & filters

Turn your customer data into actionable insights! Segmentation is one of Mantle’s most powerful features – you can slice and dice your customer list to find exactly the right people for your campaigns, analysis, and business decisions.

From the Customers screen, you can filter using:

• Quick filters: Apply common filters like customer status (Subscribed, Cancelled, etc.) with one click

• Advanced filters: Build complex combinations with multiple criteria

• Saved segments: Access your previously created segments for consistent analysis

Building powerful filters

Here’s where the magic happens – combining filters to find exactly the customer groups you need:

1. From the Customers screen, click More filters to see all your filtering options

2. Pick the criteria you want to apply – you can stack as many as you need

3. Adjust each filter’s parameters to narrow down your results

4. Watch the customer list update in real-time as you add or change filters

Want to see all the filtering options? Mantle’s got you covered with filters for everything:

Saving your segments

Found a filter combination that’s useful? Save it as a segment so you can use it again:

1. After you’ve applied your filters, click Save as segment

2. Give your segment a descriptive name that tells you what it’s for

3. Add a description if you want (totally optional)

4. Click Save

Your saved segments show up in the Segments list for quick access. From there, you can:

• View a segment by clicking its name

• Edit a segment’s filters by clicking the edit icon

• Duplicate a segment to create variations

• Delete segments you no longer need

See those arrows next to each saved segment? They show trends in your data:

• Up arrows mean the segment’s customer count has grown over the past 30 days

• Down arrows mean it’s shrunk over the past 30 days

These trend indicators help you quickly spot growing or shrinking customer segments without having to dig into each one.

Managing your segments

When you click on a saved segment, you’ll see a detailed management interface:

Segment details:

• Edit the segment name and control who can see it (Organization, By role, or Private)

• Duplicate the segment to create variations

Active filters: See all the current filters defining your customer group

Segment history: Track performance over time with metrics like customer count, CLV, average spend, and a visual trend chart to understand how your segment is changing.

Taking action with segments

Segments become really powerful when you use them to drive business actions:

Email campaigns

Send targeted communications to specific customer groups:

2. Create your email content targeted specifically to this customer group

3. Schedule or send immediately

Automated workflows

Use segments as triggers or conditions in Mantle Flows:

1. Create a Flow that targets a specific segment

2. Set up automated actions based on segment membership

3. As customers enter or leave the segment, your workflow responds automatically

Export for external use

Export segment data for use in other tools:

3. Download the CSV file for use in spreadsheets or other systems

Best practices

Get the most from your segments with these tips:

• Start broad, then narrow: Begin with wider criteria and add filters to refine your segment

• Name strategically: Use clear, action-oriented names like “Q1 Retention Target” or “Enterprise Upgrade Candidates”

• Review regularly: Update your segments as your business needs change

• Combine with metrics: Use segments with the Insights dashboard to compare performance across different customer groups

• Test before action: Always verify your segment returns the expected customers before taking action
