Why message frequency optimisation matters for Customer.io users
Sending too infrequently risks losing mindshare. Sending too frequently risks driving unsubscribes and spam complaints. The optimal frequency varies by segment, message type, and lifecycle stage. Most teams either guess or apply a one-size-fits-all cadence.
Tracking frequency metrics in your metric tree reveals the causal relationship between send volume and outcomes. Statistical correlations show where increasing frequency boosts conversions and where it accelerates churn, enabling evidence-based frequency decisions per segment.
