Re-engagement Emails
Re-engagement emails help drive your users back to Percipio to engage with the content. When on, if your users do not access content for 30 days, Percipio sends a weekly email that includes new and recommended content. The recommendations are based upon a user's selected skills and whether they took a Skill Benchmark. If the learner took a Skill Benchmark more than 30 days previous, the email also contains a section reminding the learner to retake their benchmark to gauge their progress.
The weekly email stops when the user signs back into Percipio, or when the user is inactive for 12 weeks, whichever comes first.
These emails are a proven, effective way to drive learner engagement by reminding your learners about content and resources. Learners with an email address in their profile can receive a series of encouraging, personalized Re-engagement emails during the work week (Monday through Friday).
These emails capture learners’ attention with personalized subject lines and learning recommendations based on their selected skill interests. The recommendations include all content types, including custom and linked content. When learners click on a link within the email, they are automatically logged into Percipio with the corresponding page or content item opened. The automatic login only works once per email per user and expires after 60 days. That means, if learners attempt a second click within the email, they are prompted to log in.

- Turn the campaign on or off
- Customize the re-engagement email campaigns

Re-engagement Email FAQs
There are up to four different Re-engagement email templates. If you have not enabled Digital Badges or Learning Goals, you only see two templates. Each template can be customized separately. Learners receive one of the four available template formats for each of 12 weeks on a rotating basis or until the learner logs into Percipio.
The Re-engagement emails include content suggestions based on the learner's selected skill interests. The recommendations include all content types, including custom and linked content. It also includes the learner's login ID, a link to the site, and the site name for Mobile App access.
If the learner completed a skill benchmark and did not achieve at least a 96% proficiency, they also see a reminder to retake it so they can gauge their progress. The reminder to retake a skill benchmark only shows after the specified retake interval has passed..
Early adopters of the Re-engagement emails have observed marked increases of the following:
- overall traffic to their Percipio site
- number of page views
- number of sessions
- duration of sessions
Re-engagement emails are automatically sent to a learner once 30 days pass from the last time they accessed Percipio content. When turned on, any learner that has not engaged with content for more than 30 days automatically receives these emails. Learners receive one email per week, for a total of 12 weeks, or until they consume content.
Re-engagement emails stop after any of these:
- Once the learner consumes content again
- If the learner opts out via the Unsubscribe link within each email
- If the learner turns off the Send me an email with new and featured content when I haven't recently visited Percipio setting from their My Settings page
- When you turn off the feature for all learners via the Email Campaigns page
