Customer Reactivation

Any business has inactive customers who haven’t opened messages or made orders for some time. You can drive back part of this audience with automated reactivation campaigns.

To create a reactivation campaign, you need to build a dynamic segment and schedule a single message or create a workflow.

How to Create a Dynamic Segment for Reactivation

A dynamic segment is a group of contacts where contacts are added automatically based on the set conditions. For a reactivation segment, you can select such conditions as the last open, click, order, etc. performed a certain time ago. Segments are recalculated every day at 3 to 4 a.m. UTC, and all contacts who have been added to it receive the reactivation message at the specified time.

Before getting started, we recommend you read a full guideline on how to create a dynamic segment.

1. Go to Contacts > Segments and click Add segment.

2. Select Dynamic and click Create.

3. Enter name (required) and purpose and tags (optional). Click Next.

4. In Include, click Add card and select conditions (contact activity, orders or events) and time of the last activity.

5. After the card is created, you can include more conditions to it or exclude them.

6. When all conditions are specified, click Done.
