Introducing Advanced Risk Assessment for Email Campaigns
This feature meticulously analyzes your imported email contacts, assigning a risk level to each. Get real-time updates on potential risks, directly within the app and also via email.
Understanding Risk Assessment
Our risk assessment process is triggered whenever your clients import new contacts. Through a comprehensive validation procedure, we thoroughly evaluate the quality of these contacts. Based on the results, we provide immediate notifications to the Subaccount and Agency.
Here’s how the notifications work:
High Risk (Deliverable < 90%): An error notification will be prominently displayed, accompanied by an email sent to both the agency and subaccount. This ensures that any issues are addressed promptly.
Moderate Risk (Deliverable between 91% and 95%): A warning notification alert will be displayed, giving a heads-up about potential concerns.
In-App Guidance: we provide a link about enabling the email validation for both the Agency and Subaccount.
To access the validation records table, navigate to Settings ➝ Email Services ➝ Risk Assessment tab.
What’s Coming Next?
If Deliverable < 90%: An error notification will be prominently displayed.
If the Deliverable is between 91% and 95%: A warning notification alert will be displayed.
Key Benefits
With the enhanced risk assessment feature, users can expect the following benefits:
Enhanced Deliverability: Elevate the email deliverability rates by identifying potential issues before sending out campaigns.
List Hygiene: Keep the contact lists clean and accurate, improving the overall quality of campaigns.
Proactive Campaigning: Stay ahead of the curve by knowing the deliverability status before initiating an email campaign. This proactive approach mitigates the risk of blocks
