Gavin is too busy to open the first email and is sent a text message reminder
The SMS message links to the same portal as the email with all activity tracked centrally.

Having not replied to either email or text, Gavin receives a reminder by post
This mail is only sent when the text or email reminders do not generate a response.

That evening...
Gavin responds to the original email and signs up to a new tariff
The letter triggers Gavin to open up his unread email, whereby he follows the links and signs up for another 12 months.
