Understanding Non-Subscribed Contacts
We can gain valuable insights into non-subscribed contacts by understanding how they are added and the ways in which they can interact with our marketing content. Non-subscribed contacts are added when they provide their email address but don't opt in for email marketing. They can be added through various methods like online stores, integrations, manual imports, and forwarded emails to the Mailchimp Inbox. It's important to note that non-subscribed contacts can receive transactional emails and marketing content through postcards and online ads. This provides valuable data about interactions with your brand and allows for Google remarketing ads and postcard sends if their mailing address is available.
To view non-subscribed contacts, we need to create a segment in the audience. This can be done by going to Audience, then clicking All contacts, selecting the desired audience, clicking New Segment, and setting the drop-down menus to Email marketing status | is | Non-Subscribed. It's essential to understand that non-subscribed contacts are included in the contact total and count towards the monthly plan limit. This provides valuable audience data and allows for potential downgrades to lower pricing tiers by archiving the segment of non-subscribed contacts.
