Omnichannel Customer Understanding
Push

FacebookEvery customer is different and will have different preferences on how they want to be communicated with
How do you decide which to use?
Push
In-app
Consider:
• Goal
• Message Content
• Channel Availability
• Response Rate
• Timing
When to Use Email
Push
In-app
FB
Goal: Emails can be used to drive interactions in any channel. The more complicated the action you are trying to drive is (e.g., refinancing a loan) the better suited a message is to email.
Message: Longer, more content heavy messages.
Availability: All users opted in to receiving email.
Response Rate: Low
Timing: Non-immediate
When to use Push
Push
In-App
Goal: Bring users back into the app and incentivize action
Message: Short, simple with a specific call to action
Availability: Can only be sent to users who have downloaded the app and are opted in to push
Response Rate: High
Timing: Immediate
When to Use In-App
Push
In-app
Goal: In-app messages are best used to help guide a user through the app experience.
Message: Shorter than email, longer than push (depends on in-app template used – full page, banner, standard etc.)
Availability: In-app messages can be sent to anyone with the app open.
Response Rate: High
Timing: Immediate (when the user is in the app).
When to Use Facebook Ads
Push
In-app
FB
Goal: Best used for campaign goals that you’ve seen success with from Facebook ads
Message: Short, ad format
Availability: Any users who have connected their Facebook profile to your app or verified email address
Response Rate: Low
Timing: Non-immediate
Recommendations from
Recommendations
• Make sure your emails support the platform your customer is on. Email can be viewed anywhere. Consider deferred deep link solutions and drive people to applications (if it makes sense).
• Think about the user experience as a lifecycle. Don’t send welcome emails right when someone signs up (they are still in your app). Consider sending emails that introduce features that are highly engaging, and have not been seen by a cohort.
• Be as personal and contextual as possible.
