This feature in automation helps you organize your contacts into specific groups or lists. You can use this to sort customers based on their interests or behaviors.
EXAMPLE If you have a list of customers who are interested in sports products, you can add customers who have purchased or shown interest in those products. This way, when you have a new sports product launch, you can send targeted messages only to that group. By using lists, you ensure that customers receive relevant information that matters to them, making your communication more effective.
This segmentation helps ensure that the right messages reach the right people. It allows for targeted communication about different campaigns, such as product launches, promotions, or events.
By using lists, you can customize your outreach efforts and improve engagement by sending content that is relevant to each group’s interests and behaviors.
This feature allows you to take a contact out of a specific group or list. By removing contacts, you can manage your audience more effectively and ensure that they no longer receive communications that may not be relevant to them.
