What is the objective of this guide?

Provide clear, repeatable steps to keep mail campaigns and CRM data healthy by running checks, auto-resolving simple mismatches, and tracking mail cadence and ROI.

How often should health checks run and what cadence is recommended?

Use a mixed cadence: nightly full integrity runs, hourly delta checks for recent changes, and a weekly reconciliation email or report.

Which fields and signals determine contact health?

Key signals include a validated postal address, verified phone or email, a unique contact ID, and explicit consent flags propagated across systems.

How does auto-resolve classify and handle mismatches?

Classify mismatches as duplicates, partial matches, conflicting IDs, or stale records. Apply priority rules: exact 1:1 merges to a canonical ID, deterministic partials adopt latest activity with low confidence flags, create minimal anchor records for missing entries, and enforce opt-outs to suppress mail.

What safeguards should be in place for automatic resolution?

Implement rate limits, exponential backoff, human-in-the-loop review for ambiguous cases, and immutable audit logs plus operator and timestamp fields for traceability.

How should systems be integrated for automation?

Use an event-driven architecture with webhooks and APIs, ETL or schema-on-read for transforms, message queues for retries, and a deterministic then probabilistic identity resolution service tied to health dashboards.

Which metrics should I track in the first 30 days?

Track match rate (target increase from 65% to 85%), mail-eligible contacts, mail delivery success (aim for 95%), and inbound appointments from mail. Monitor match confidence and auto-resolve rates.

What are the recommended next steps to start a pilot?

Map data flows between CRM, mailing vendor, and analytics; implement deterministic identity keys and one address schema; pilot auto-resolution in a small region with human review on edge cases; and set dashboards for health and outcomes.
