PUSH NOTIFICATION

Push notifications are bite-sized messages that carry a high customer engagement value. You can engage customers with relevant and personalized messages to earn maximum conversion rates. 

Although these notifications have a lot of benefits but many times there could be many hassles where the notifications do not reach to the subscribers or for some reason they do not click on the notifications due to which you could miss the whole point of driving maximum conversions.

In order to resolve these issues, NotifyVisitors has come up with a handy solution of RESENDING push to automate the process of resending or retargeting notifications to the subscribers who have not clicked on the notifications or either they have not received the push notifications. Read this article to learn about how RESEND push notifications work in the NotifyVisitors dashboard.

HOW DO RESEND PUSH NOTIFICATIONS WORK IN NOTIFYVISITORS DASHBOARD :

The feature of RESEND push notification enables you to retarget those subscribers with the relevant content, whom the original notification has either not been delivered or either they have not clicked on the notifications for certain reasons. The process of resending the notifications happens on a recurring basis. You can schedule the resending of the notifications.

Let’s understand with the help of an example -

Suppose you have sent notifications to the 100 subscribers out of which only 80 have received the notifications. Also, out of those 80, only 40 have clicked on the notifications. In such a case, you can set the conditions to either resend the original notification to those 40 subscribers who have not clicked or either to those 20 who have not received the notifications. 

The aim is to retarget the users on the basis of their behavior.

Below are the steps to resend the push notifications :

1. Navigate to the NotifyVisitors dashboard > Notifications>  Send/schedule notifications.
