Use Mixpanel Cohorts for Targeting VWO Experiments

Puneet Kaura Puneet Kaura 2 Min Read

In a recent product-update, we discussed how integration with other tools is a key element of VWO product roadmap in 2021. To carry forward the theme, we are announcing a new integration with Mixpanel (a popular product analytics tool) – the ability to use Mixpanel cohorts for targeting visitors using VWO Testing and VWO Deploy.

A cohort can be defined as a group of users who share a set of properties or have performed a particular group of events, examples of cohorts can be:

  • Power users – Users that made 3 or more purchases in the last 7 days
  • Recent upgrades – Users that upgraded their plan in the last 30 days
  • Inactive users – Users that haven’t used your app in the last 14 days

PLEASE NOTE: Our current VWO integration with Mixpanel which involves sending of VWO experiment data to augment Mixpanel stays as is.

The ability to target an experiment based on user behaviour is a powerful lever in the hands of a marketeer, it opens up a whole set of new use-cases that were (almost) impossible earlier using the conventional targeting methods that focus on demographics – Device, browser, location etc. Examples are:

  • Experiment to make visitors who are yet to make their first-purchase (cohort – Yet to make a purchase) convert by showing a Free shipping banner vs $5 discount banner.
  • Experiment to ask frequent buyers (cohort – Bought more than 3 times in the last 60 days) to enroll in the loyalty program by providing different copy on the CTA button.

How does this integration works:

  • Create user cohorts in Mixpanel.
  • Enable VWO integration inside Mixpanel and sync these cohorts to VWO. Please note cohorts get automatically updated every few hours keeping the targeting relevant at all times.
  • Each Mixpanel cohort appears as a VWO Attributes list.
  • One or more Attributes list can be used for targeting VWO experiments
