Segmentation (SalesIQ)

The classification of website visitors in Zoho SalesIQ into groups based on shared attributes or behaviours, used to personalise chat triggers and bot flows.

What Is Segmentation in Zoho SalesIQ?

Segmentation in Zoho SalesIQ groups website visitors into categories based on shared characteristics such as geography, industry (detected from their company domain), visit frequency, lead score, device type, or referral source. Segments can trigger different bot flows, proactive chat messages, or operator routing rules.

Segment-Based Personalisation

A visitor from a manufacturing company domain might see a proactive chat message referencing manufacturing ERP solutions. A visitor who has returned five times might trigger a higher-priority lead routing rule. Segmentation makes these differentiated experiences possible at scale.

Dynamic Segments

Visitor segments in Zoho SalesIQ are dynamic — they update in real time as visitor behaviour and properties change during a session. A visitor who scores 0 on arrival may cross the target segment threshold after visiting three product pages, triggering an automated chat proactively at exactly the right moment.

How does Segmentation in Zoho SalesIQ help personalise the visitor experience?

Segmentation groups visitors by shared attributes such as location, traffic source, device type, visit frequency, or custom variables. Once segmented, different proactive chat triggers, bot flows, and widget messages can be served to each segment. A returning customer from a CRM record sees a different greeting than a first-time anonymous visitor from a paid ad.

What data points can be used to create Visitor Segments in Zoho SalesIQ?

Segments can be built using geographic location, device type, browser, traffic source (UTM parameters), page URL patterns, visit count, last visit date, time on site, lead score, CRM fields (for identified visitors), and custom variables pushed from the website. Combining multiple criteria creates highly specific segments for targeted engagement.
