How can I select only prospect client in Adobe Analytics

[Tomm245wb]

Hi community!

I am trying to create a dashboard in Adobe Analytics that distinguishes unique visitors between prospects and clients. I have already created the segments for prospects and clients, but I am encountering the problem that some prospects are actually clients because they later enter our private area and log in. The problem I have is that the value is being counted both in "Clients" and "Prospects" because first they are "Prospects" and then "Clients" with the same sessionID. I am trying to create a segment where "Prospects" only include those who are "Prospects" but I can't manage to do it. Could you help me?

Thank you very much.

Hi @Tomm245wb, 

To ensure a user is counted only as a "Prospect" if they never become a "Client", you need to modify your "Prospects" segment to exclude users who ever qualify as "Clients" within the selected reporting window.

Modify the "Prospects" Segment:

• Create a new segment for "Prospects" with the following logic:
  • Include visitors who have the characteristics of a prospect (e.g., no login event).
  • Exclude visitors who have ever qualified as a "Client" within the desired reporting period.
• Adobe Analytics Segment Definition:
  • Container: Visitor Level
  • Criteria:
    • "Prospect Criteria" (e.g., visited certain pages, performed actions)
    • AND NOT "Client Criteria" (e.g., logged in, accessed private area)

Hi @Tomm245wb 

Using Sequential Segments, we can achieve the desired result using the following approach:

Set the container to "Visitor" to track behavior across all visits.
Step 1 (Include): Define "Prospect" behavior—users who visit the site but do not log in.
Step 2 (Exclude - Sequential Logic): Exclude users who later log in or access the private client area.
This ensures that only users who remain Prospects throughout the reporting period are included in the segment.
