With Christmas upon us and last-minute shopping reaching its peak, it is getting harder for your emails to capture the attention of customers. Get three tips for using “Last Chance” subject lines to cut through the clutter in holiday inboxes so you can achieve your goals.
You might think that displaying an unsubscribe link on your email will encourage people to unsubscribe, but the opposite is generally true.
In this Q&A, Dela Quist shows that the A/B Split email test is not the only way – or always the best way – to assess the effectiveness of your campaigns…
I need to do an email test – tell me a bit about A/B split testing.
Welcome to The Alchemy Worx Subscriber’s Choice Award Q4 2013. As the busiest quarter of the year, there was no shortage of campaigns to choose from. But we’ve scoured through our inbox to narrow it down to 3 of our stand-out favorites.
Take Email-Worx as a case in point; 5 issues into the campaign, we can tell you that the average open rate is 56%. This has dropped from a high of 63% in issue 1 by an average of 2.2% an issue. The average unique click rate for the same period is 24% dropping from a high of 31% to 17% in the last issue.
When developing your subscription process, legal considerations are extremely important. Legislation (created with SPAM prevention in mind) will have a major impact on how or if consent is required; what information you collect; how you handle your data and even unsubscription.
In the UK, there are three pieces of legislation that you need to comply with – however, it is important to bear in mind that legal compliance is only the first step. Subscriber perceptions of your email marketing activity are just as important. The fact that your campaign is legal will not stop subscribers from hitting the spam button and damaging your reputation with an ISP.
Setting up triggered emails is an easy way to ensure your communications are relevant and timely as they’re based on your subscriber’s recent interactions with your brand, product or service. For instance, there may be simple actions or changes in customer behaviour that you can use as the basis for new triggered activity that complements your existing messaging.
“I have heard that ISPs are beginning to base reputation scores on engagement – how will this affect my deliverability?”
The first response I give to anyone who asks me this question is: “Says Who?” Swiftly followed by: “You have nothing to worry about.”
An Alchemy Worx’s study of over 600 subject lines across 200 million messages showed an unexpected relationship between click-to-open rates and subject line length, suggesting very strongly that past subject line analysis may have led email marketers seriously astray.
Our findings last month on the Obama campaign caused a lot of debate but the bare facts of our analysis still stand had Obama’s team optimized for improved open rates, their send volumes would have dropped and their all-important donations would have followed.
An email address is at the heart of people’s ID and makes possible a massive range of our daily interactions – with each other, with brands and shops, with government and employers.
