While they make a small portion of your email file (less than 3%), they represent a large share of your email opens, clicks (more than 20% of clicks came from this segment). Recommended Actions reasonably high contact frequency understand who they are, where they come from, and what they like incite them to share on social channels (Facebook fan page, social contests, etc..) ask them to rate products or leave reviews after they bought have them to participate in surveys
