| 122 | * You can select a **communication policy** for the mass messaging (if this functionality is enabled), which defines the frequency of mass messaging to customers. By default, the **Standard** policy is applied. It is created automatically in the system and contains no rules. | ||
| 123 | * You can also set the size of the [[control group>>doc:Main.Smart_Communications.SMC_Use.Control_groups.WebHome]] to evaluate the impact of communication on customer behavior. To form a representative control group based on specific characteristics (for example, age, gender, registration date), you can use the stratification mechanism. Clicking the **Show stratification parameters** button opens a modal window with settings for forming the control group. For more details, see the [[article>>doc:Main.Smart_Communications.SMC_Use.Control_groups.WebHome]]. | ||

| 127 | For example, 14,730 customers were included in the segment. This does not mean that exactly that many emails will be sent. | ||
| 128 | |||
| 129 | * 71 customers have no address. | ||
| 130 | * The control group size is set to 7%, meaning 7% of customers will not receive the message. | ||
| 131 | * Some customers have unsubscribed from communications. | ||
| 132 | |||
| 133 | This leaves 13,257 customers who will receive the mass messaging . |
