Is E-mail Marketing Doomed to low Response Rates?
Monitor your campaigns
It is strongly recommend that email marketers monitor their subscriber responses and adapt their campaigns to either slow down the emails to once per month or send a permission email to determine subscribers or your email marketing campaigns.
Email marketing campaigns are plagued by a lack of response and not much adjustment by marketers to solve the problem, according to a new study from company Return Path. Without appropriate monitoring and follow-up your email campaings could be doomed to a low response.
The new study—“The One-Way Conversation: Email Marketing to the Non-Responsive Subscriber”—analyzed the continuing email efforts of 40 e-commerce companies after Return Path purchased a single product from each.
A majority of the studied marketers sent follow-up emails at a steady, high frequency for a 19-period despite a total lack of response—no opens, clicks or other purchases.
Eventually, 27% of the companies stopped sending email, but a quarter stopped without any attempt to re-engage or request continuing opt-ins.
