Tomasz

Was a regular, has not bought in months

Once a solid, valuable customer, now long silent, well beyond any normal gap. He is past the At-Risk window: cadence nudges will not cut it. Hibernating customers get one genuinely strong reactivation attempt, then are rested rather than nagged.

Long-dormant, once valuable

Tomasz's recency is far beyond his old rhythm and his decayed value has fallen. The tree places him in Hibernating, past At-Risk. The strategy switches from catch the lapse to one strong reactivation.

Welcome back, or rest

If Tomasz buys, he becomes Reactivated and re-enters onboarding to rebuild a habit. If he does not, he moves to a low-frequency rested state, respected, not nagged.

Trigger: Purchase recorded (-> Reactivated) OR no response (-> rest)
