Tips for approval and performance
- 1
Segment the audience, past buyers of a category convert far better than a blast to your full list.
- 2
Keep one clear call to action; multiple links dilute clicks and can lower your quality rating.
- 3
Always include an opt-out option; high block rates reduce your messaging limit and template quality.
