RFM, RRM, RFC, CD and Lifecycle describe every contact, every day. In Audiences each of those descriptions is a column you can filter on, so a communication scenario starts from an exact definition: who, in which phase, moving which way, buying what. Build it from conditions in a visual builder. The audience refreshes daily and is measured by the phase moves it produces.

Turn a first purchase into a habit. Customers who place a second order inside the replenishment window move to Growth far more often than those who wait.
From description to definition
Every report you read becomes a column you can use.
The segment reports answer where customers are and which way they are moving. Audiences keep those answers per contact, next to the transaction data and the 8-week prediction. You do not export a segment and rebuild it in the ESP. You combine the descriptions you already trust, and the definition stays live.
LCLifecycle
Which phase the contact is in and whether it is a lead, customer or churned.

Audience sizes and response rates are demonstration data. Value uses the current value per contact of each Lifecycle phase.
Measured like a report
An audience is not a list. It is a flow.
The definition runs every day. New contacts enter as they start to match, and those who leave are counted by where they went. So the result of a scenario is read the same way as every other report: as moves between phases, and the value those moves carry.
