Analyze their buy history, interests, shopping behaviors, purchasing frequency, and other data.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, a department store might highlight different deals for different customer interests.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It might promote perfumes and different fragrances to one segment of customers.
