How to isolate high-risk segments?
Identify high-risk characteristics:
- No engagement in 6+ months
- Unknown or purchased sources
- High historical bounce/complaint rates
- Addresses from before current practices
Create exclusion rules:
- Segment by last engagement date
- Segment by acquisition source
- Segment by historical complaint behavior
Prioritize safe segments:
- Recent signups with confirmed opt-in
- Engaged in last 30-90 days
- Known good sources
Phased reintroduction:
- Add back moderate-risk segments after improvement
- Test high-risk segments carefully, if at all
- Inspect cargo for spoilage. Ship only verified good goods during probation.
