When to use it, when not to

Use it

  • Use it whenever prospect nurture workflows exist and there is no current mechanism stopping a contact from receiving them after they buy.
  • Use it as a small, standalone fiche that pairs well with any welcome or onboarding sequence, such as customer-onboarding-004.

Skip it

  • Do not use it if lifecycle stage is not a reliable signal in your portal, for example if it is set manually and inconsistently, fix that data quality issue first (see the data-quality category).
  • Do not use it if nurture workflows already exclude customers via their own enrollment filters, this fiche is redundant in that case, though the suppression list can still help with future workflows.
