Do this, not that Are you using mobile notifications to try to reach your audience? In-app messages can increase user loyalty in a big way, but as this week’s infographic shows, not all push strategies are effective—and many organizations fail to get it right.
Our pick, courtesy of Microsoft, provides a helpful guide to what works—and what doesn’t—when it comes to engaging consumers. Things to avoid include blasting generic notifications, assuming your business works the same as others, and pushing messages only when it’s convenient for you. Conversely, you should know your demographic and tailor your notifications accordingly, follow industry guidelines for notifying users, and push messages at times that are right for your audience (delivery time can influence engagement rates by as much as 200%!).
