Understanding Tripwire Marketing

Tripwire marketing focuses on targeting customers when they deviate from typical purchasing behavior, leading to increased profitability. Most customers follow a standard life cycle, often becoming inactive after initial purchases. By identifying moments when customers haven't bought in a while, such as extending beyond a usual buying timeframe, businesses can capitalize on this behavior by delivering timely marketing offers. For example, if a customer typically buys every 30 days and hasn't made a purchase within 45 days, it's an ideal time to reach out with an incentive to encourage their return.
