Introduction: Why Targeted Segmentation Beats Generic Mass Blasts
Dispatching identical promotional broadcasts to your entire contact database leads to subscriber fatigue, increased spam blocks, and dropping open rates — putting your campaigns at risk of GDPR non-compliance. Segmenting audiences by interest, purchase history, or stage in the sales funnel ensures relevant messaging.
In this guide, we show you how to structure tag taxonomies inside Patify to send highly targeted campaigns.

2. Dispatching Precision Campaigns
