Setting Up Opt-Out Options for Pride Month Emails
During special days like Pride Month, some customers may have experienced loss or challenges that make the occasion difficult for them. Offering opt-out options for holiday-themed marketing emails shows that your business cares about your customers' well-being and respects their circumstances.
Follow these steps to set up a Pride Month opt-out flow:
Create a Landing Page: Instead of collecting opt-outs directly in the email, direct customers to a landing page where they can indicate their preferences. With Omnisend, you can use ready-to-launch landing page templates or easily customize them.
Add Custom Properties or Tags: Store customers' preferences using custom properties or tags, including their opt-out status for specific holidays. In Omnisend, you can add tags to forms and use them to track and segment customers based on their preferences.
Include the Landing Page Link in Opt-Out Emails: Save and enable your landing page to obtain its public link. Add this link to your email campaigns, along with a call-to-action button that prompts subscribers to update their preferences.
Create a Segment: After sending the email and collecting data, create a segment based on the custom property or tag assigned to each subscriber. Use this segment to exclude customers who have opted out of specific holiday communications.
Regularly Review and Update: Review and update your email preference landing page regularly to ensure it remains relevant and aligned with evolving customer needs. Conduct yearly holiday opt-out emails to maintain an updated list of opted-out and opted-in subscribers.
Following these steps helps you tailor your campaigns to each contact's preferences, which supports better engagement rates over time.
