Automated MailerLite Inactive Subscriber Review

Every Monday, WebRun opens MailerLite, works through your groups and segments to find subscribers with no open or click for the window you set, drafts the review list in Gmail with the counts per group, and books a short Google Calendar slot so a person decides before anyone is removed.

In short

How do I clean inactive subscribers out of my email list?

WebRun opens MailerLite every Monday, works through your groups to find subscribers with no open or click inside your window, and separates the never engaged from those who stopped. It drafts the review list in Gmail and books a calendar slot, so a person decides before anyone is removed.

  • Dormant subscribers are counted weekly with their group named
  • The open rate effect is shown before anyone is removed
  • Removal stays a human decision, never an automatic deletion

Questions, answered

Will it delete or unsubscribe anyone?

No. WebRun never removes a subscriber, never unsubscribes anyone, and never sends a campaign. It drafts the review list in Gmail and books a slot, and the removal is done by you in MailerLite.

How long is long term inactive?

Whatever window you set, such as six or twelve months with no open and no click. WebRun uses your window and separates the never engaged from people who used to open and then stopped.

How is this different from a bounce spike alert?

A bounce alert reacts to one bad send. This run works on the list itself: contacts who have been silent for months, which is what quietly drags an open rate down while the subscriber count still looks healthy.

Put this on autopilot.
