Basic SegmentationGroup supporters based on common characteristics (you already know).
• When starting out, try to create a “BEST” segment (based on “best” offline segment).• Others may include:
• New/Prospective• Current/Major• Lapsed
• Build a basic communication plan/goal for each segment.
• The better you know your audience, the more "personal" your message.• Gain trust…greet the reader by name.• Reference past interactions or observed behavior when possible.
• When in doubt, segment your email list like you would for direct mail.• Try similar segments to your Direct Mail program; test out new segments at low cost.
