This tab comes in two parts: List or Segment RFM personas and Persona comparison.
If your list or segment contains contacts that have never ordered from you, they won’t be included in the RFM population, so the total number of contacts may differ from the total number of RFM personas.

At the top of the RFM analytics tab, you can see the list or segment’s RFM personas and the total number of contacts within each persona.
Persona comparison
At the bottom of the RFM analytics, you can see a chart showing the list or segment persona population vs the total account population. This chart shows how the contacts and persona groupings within this list or segment compare to all the contacts in your account. It offers valuable insight into how this particular group of contacts compares to your total audience.
Compare with another list or segment
You can compare the metrics of a list or segment with any other list or segment in your account.
When comparing, you see all the same data and metrics as in the single analytics view. However, the data is spread across two columns, comparing the original list or segment on the left with the comparison on the right.
