Target additional audience by sending customers direct mail using Poplar.
In this article, you’ll learn how to create a segment in Yotpo SMS & Email and send the segment data to Poplar.
How it works
Poplar enables you to fulfill all of your direct mail needs through ongoing triggered mailings or one-time sends. You can bring your Yotpo data or have Poplar source it for you.
One-time send (OTS) campaigns are designed to target a specific audience, and you can send them to any number of mail recipients. Typically, customers find success with similar workflows to what they’ve seen to be effective in other CRM channels like email, SMS, or push notifications.
Recommended use cases for OTS campaigns include:
- Reactivation: Target likely-to-churn or lapsed customers with Direct Mail to bring back your most important customers before they are gone for good
- Retargeting: Create mailings designed to convert email leads into customers
- Cross-sell/Existing customers: Send highly personalized or time-sensitive mailings (e.g. special offers, new product launches, etc.) to customized groups of existing customers
You can add as many rules to your segment as you like, and use AND/OR conditions to make your targeting more specific. See all rules
