What you should not be using Push Notifications for

As a marketing team, push notifications can be a powerful tool for engaging with your audience and keeping them informed about your brand. However, it is important to understand what push notifications should not be used for. Here are some key things to keep in mind:

  1. Sales pitches: Push notifications should not be used solely as a sales pitch. Users will quickly become annoyed if they receive constant push notifications that are purely promotional. Instead, focus on providing value to the user.
  2. Irrelevant content: Push notifications should be relevant to the user’s interests. Sending notifications that are not relevant to the user can be irritating and lead to users disabling them altogether. Make sure that your notifications are tailored to the user’s preferences.
  3. Spamming: Sending too many notifications can be overwhelming and lead to users disabling them. Make sure that your notifications are spaced out and only sent when necessary.
  4. Inappropriate content: Push notifications should not contain inappropriate content. This includes anything that is offensive or discriminatory. Make sure that your notifications are appropriate for all users.
  5. Intrusive content: Push notifications should not be intrusive. Users do not want to be interrupted by notifications when they are in the middle of something else. Make sure that your notifications are sent at appropriate times and do not disrupt the user’s experience.

By avoiding these types of content, you can ensure that your push notifications are effective and well-received by your audience. Remember to focus on providing value to the user, tailoring notifications to their preferences, and ensuring that notifications are not intrusive or inappropriate.
