Easily Spot Inactive Subscribers

Inactive subscribers blend in with your active list. Notis stars them in Slack so you spot them at a glance.

Trigger

Profile Update Trigger

Triggered when a subscriber's profile is updated in Mailchimp

Action

Add a star to an item

Stars a channel, file, file comment, or a specific message in slack.

Why this helps

You cannot tell who is inactive without checking Mailchimp, making list health decisions harder than they need to be.

  • Quick list health assessment
  • Streamline cleanup decisions
  • Focus outreach on active subscribers

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Mailchimp and Slack integrations
  • 2Tell Notis: 'Star a message in Slack when a subscriber in Mailchimp becomes inactive'
  • 3Define inactive (no opens or clicks in X days, typically 180+ days)
  • 4Notis will star Slack messages or posts for inactive subscribers
  • 5Use stars as visual markers during list reviews

Questions about this workflow

How old should data be before someone is inactive?

Industry standard is 6 months of no engagement. Adjust based on your sending frequency.

Should I remove inactive subscribers?

That is your choice. Some remove immediately, others send win-back campaigns first.

Can I unstar them if they re-engage?

Yes. Stars are manual bookmarks. Remove them when subscribers become active again.
