Customer Opportunities is one of the six types of Decision Trees and is available in Web, Store, and Omni instances.
There are four customer segment types;
- Recency: The buying segment into which a customer falls based on the time between their last order and the analysis date. (New Customers, 0-3 Months, 3-6 Months, etc.) (Web, Store, and Omni)
- Frequency: The buying segment into which a customer falls based on their purchase frequency (New Customers, One-Time Buyers, 2-5 Time Buyers, etc.) (Web, Store, and Omni)
- Monetary: Identify high, low, and negative lifetime profit customer segments (High & Moderate, Low, and Negative Lifetime Order Profit). (Web, Store, and Omni)
- Returns: Identify customer segments by return history (e.g., No Orders, No Returns in the Last six Months, and Returners). (Web, Store, and Omni)
- Purchase Channel: The customers that purchase via the web or via store and the recency of their orders.
Click the Tree icon at the top right to select the Opportunity type.
You can also use the title dropdown arrow to select any of the four Customer Segments;

What is a Lapsing Customer?
In EDITED, we define a lapsing customer as one who has not repurchased in 6-13 months since their last order.
