# How to Organise & Run Campaigns

> A comprehensive guide to setting up campaigns in Mention Me, including locales, triggering rules, customer segmentation, and referee qualification.

Campaigns are a main building block of your referral programme. With campaigns, you can define rules to target specific customer segments. For example, you may want to target only customers who:

* Use a particular language
* Belong to your loyalty scheme
* Have purchased in the last three months
* Have just spent more than £50 on their order

Only customers who meet the criteria will see the referral offer. You can run multiple campaigns simultaneously.

## 1. Setting Up Locales

When creating a new campaign, you can specify a "Locale to Present In" and the expected currency.

Locales are configured according to your contract. To add a new locale or market, contact your Account Manager or the Support team.

## 2. Using Triggering Rules to Promote to Referrers

If you're using campaigns across different locales, use [triggering rules](/knowledge/referral/campaigns/triggering-rules) to ensure the right offer is shown to the right customer.

Add a new rule by clicking **Add Group**:

</Frame>

For example, to serve an offer to high spenders, define a rule setting the Order Total greater than a specific amount. This uses the order subtotal from your tag and ignores currency.

</Frame>

Combine rules using the **Add Rule** button - the offer is only shown if both rule 1 AND rule 2 are satisfied:

  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/mentionme/DW6A4iNCa7LrbN3W/images/knowledge/referral/campaigns/11021128198301.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=DW6A4iNCa7LrbN3W&q=85&s=3ecafcb87802ca040552f8c66255d0ab" alt="Combined triggering rules using AND logic" width="2436" height="390" data-path="images/knowledge/referral/campaigns/11021128198301.png" />
</Frame>

For example, requiring the customer to be using locale en\_GB and to have spent more than 100.

You can also use multiple groups (Group 1 OR Group 2) for broader targeting logic.

## 3. Customer Segmentation

Triggering rules can leverage customer data to serve offers to specific segments. For instance, target single-order vs. subscription customers with different campaigns.

Use the **segment** parameter in your referrer or order tag:

  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/mentionme/DW6A4iNCa7LrbN3W/images/knowledge/referral/campaigns/11021197439645.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=DW6A4iNCa7LrbN3W&q=85&s=905224da3197efff1a5e683363ef1d9d" alt="Segment parameter in triggering rules for customer segmentation" width="2462" height="914" data-path="images/knowledge/referral/campaigns/11021197439645.png" />
</Frame>

You can also import a batch of customers under a segment to enrol them into a campaign, assuming you have customer consent. [Learn how to upload tags](/knowledge/admin/upload-tags).

</Frame>

Another approach: use the **custom\_field** parameter in your post-purchase or order tag to serve offers based on product category (e.g. "dresses").

<Frame caption="Custom field parameter for product category targeting">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/mentionme/DW6A4iNCa7LrbN3W/images/knowledge/referral/campaigns/11021256591901.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=DW6A4iNCa7LrbN3W&q=85&s=ce78314cbf3a0b18a0a27501440dfa3e" alt="Custom field parameter for product category targeting" width="2426" height="306" data-path="images/knowledge/referral/campaigns/11021256591901.png" />
</Frame>

Ensure your tags include the **segment** or **custom\_field** values if using these rules. The `custom_field` is only available on post-purchase and order tags. Regex is used to match values within the string.

## 4. Referee Qualification

You can define who qualifies as a "referee", which affects whether a referrer is rewarded.

For example, require that a referee's order value is higher than £50 to trigger a successful referral:

<Frame caption="Referee rules and options with order value qualification">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/mentionme/DW6A4iNCa7LrbN3W/images/knowledge/referral/campaigns/11021299484829.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=DW6A4iNCa7LrbN3W&q=85&s=4766d489cc2fdbdfbc34e4d935e34c7a" alt="Referee rules and options with order value qualification" width="2628" height="1200" data-path="images/knowledge/referral/campaigns/11021299484829.png" />
</Frame>

Most referral programmes do not use referee rules by default. Adding them may reduce the number of successful referrals. Understand the implications before applying restrictions.

## 5. Advanced Gaming Rules

You can configure Gaming Rules under the **Fraud Rules** section of the campaign to impact a customer's gaming score.

These settings help detect abuse and should not be changed for new programme launches. Only modify with the help of the Mention Me team.
