How to create website visitors retargeting segments.
Supercharge your ABM program by creating retargeting segments based on a wide scope of events, including website visits and ABM Ads engagements.
The retargeting segment feature in N.Rich enables you to create user segments based on website visit events, campaign engagement events, event attributes and occurrences. Event attributes refers to all the details tagged to an event that helps us understand its context. For example the website visit URL.
The table below shows all the possible events, attributes and conditions at your disposal to create powerful retargeting segments.

Common Use Cases
N.Rich customers use this feature to create retargeting segments based on a combination of powerful rules that will result in a carefully crafted audience that shows contextual interest in value pages, specific campaigns and campaign events. This is valuable when promoting specific products/solutions and using custom rules to define interest and engagements.
Prerequisites:
Using website visit events:
You should have the N.Rich tag installed and active in order to use website visit events.
Using campaign events:
You should have N.Rich campaigns with engagement data in order to use campaign events.
Getting Started
To create retargeting segments, navigate to Segments, click on the Create Segment button and select “Retargeting” from the dropdown menu. Name your retargeting segment and create your rules for populating the retargeting segments.
Note
Since this feature creates visitor-based retargeting segments that may or may not be associated with accounts, campaigns targeting these segments will result in lower than usual account identification rates (depending on how ICP heavy your website traffic is). This will translate into less clicks attributed to accounts within analytics dashboards.
Tips & Best Practices:
Rules, Rule Groups and AND/OR Operators:
You can combine simple rules (conditions) with the logical operators AND or OR to form complex rules. Rules used as conditions for populating a retargeting segment can be grouped together with the AND operator into a Rule Group.
Rule Groups can be added to a set of primary rules to further narrow down the segment population by adding additional rules using either the AND or OR conditions.
For example, the following screenshot shows a set of primary rules (Rule Group 1) that contain the rules to populate a segment with visitors having visited the website in the last 3 months and who are also part of an existing segment (Rule Group 2).
