Deliverability
The Most Important Metric
You’re Not Measuring
Especially when you consider the most common reason for missing a payment is because delinquent customers simply forget to pay their bill.
And traditional methods of reaching consumers, like outbound calling, have proven to no longer be effective…
If you call a delinquent
customer,
will they answer the
phone?
94%
of unidentified calls go unanswered
That’s why
Digital-First Engagement
is the ideal way to engage with
past-due customers.
Digital-First Engagement works:
Can increase resolution rates by 25%
Boost customer engagement by 25%
Digital-first customers contacted digitally make 12% more payments than those contacted via traditional channels
Where digital offered, more than 96% resolve debts without human interaction
But simply adding email to your collections
communication mix isn’t enough
If you email a delinquent
customer, will it actually reach
them?
Well, that all
depends on…
Email Delivery Rate
Email Delivery Rate, refers to the successful transmission of an email from the sender to the recipient’s mail server. It is the measurement of emails delivered divided by the number of emails sent. Bounces (when an email gets rejected by the mail server for any reason) and failures will impact this number.
Did the email you sent actually
make it to the recipient?
If your email gets
caught in spam, how
much will a good
delivery rate help?
That’s why you should
also measure…
Deliverability
Successful email delivery, aka your email was accepted by the recipient’s mail server, doesn’t mean that it actually makes it into their inbox. Deliverability, or inboxing rate, divides how many emails reach the recipient’s inbox, as opposed to their spam folder, by the total number of emails sent. Your deliverability is influenced by a variety of fluctuating factors.
Did the email you sent actually make it to
the inbox—or did it get caught in spam?
