Juicy ideas for better segmentation
If you're using our services to filter sign-ups, here are some fresh ideas to squeeze every drop of juice from your data.
You can use your email validation results to segment your data and improve communications and customer experience. According to Return Path* round 80% of marketers segment their lists. And those that segment better, get better results. Simple.
On the flip side, 48% of the people in the same survey who don’t segment their data say it’s because they have data quality issues. If you're using our API you won't have ongoing email data quality issues. What you will have instead is opportunities to segment better and differently using the results from your data clean-up and ongoing checking.
Email marketing ideas to try
If you’re using our MORE API you’ll be getting dozens of datapoints to use as segmentation markers; here’s a quick tour of our ideas for you to get the most out of some key responses.
Find role-based email addresses - what can you do with role based data?
- Ban role based addresses
- Mark them for manual checking or follow up
- Role based email addresses tend to have lower open rates than personal emails, so send role based sign-ups sideways into a campaign to check open rates
- Create campaigns and conversations by role type. It’s a great way to segment for onboarding.
What’s the service ID - is the email business or freemail?
- Will you get different results if you’re contacting people on their personal email or a work address?
- Are you a B2B company? Detect personal emails and start a conversation to check whether there’s any mileage in carrying on the contact.
Country ID - where are people really coming from?
- Can you time campaigns for better open rates if you split your emails by location?
- Respond in different languages
- Send country specific product and service information
- Exclude requests from countries you don’t ship to
