Logic: relevant mails should reach the right people. Generic marketing email campaigns fetch the major flak in this regards, while Properly targeted lists have less chances to be marked as spam. Your email lists must be segmented, and cleansed for spam trap accounts beforehand. 2. Concentrate on Subject Lines & Sender Names Area of Concern:Recipient’s Mail Inbox Parameter under Threat: Open Rates Subject Lines: A brief, transparent and comprehensive subject line is always appreciated.

  3. Since it’s Thanksgiving, your Personalization game has to be on point. Personalizing your email campaigns generally heaves transaction rates and click-throughs by 6 times. The more you personalize the more you foster. Though personalization must cross the threshold of first-name customization, but remember not to make it a technical debacle for your readers. Holiday Pitch-ing Tips: Narrative of the email pitch should reflect the time when your campaign is sent out. Business storytelling is the best narrative form for holiday seasons. Visuals are good, but keep the tone of professionalism in your graphics. Don’t trade elegance for vibrancy. Don’t use large images in your mail body. This increases compatibility issues, loading time and spam scores. Personalized isn’t the other word for casual. Be genuine in your pitch content, and give a feeling of helpfulness. The tone should be friendly: nor too friendly, neither aggressively sales-y. Size of the content should be concise, but not unclear. Don’t add large attachments to the email, for the same reasons of not adding large images. Use landing pages for effective lead capture. Make your unsubscribe option tag-line interesting, expressing genuine regrets for the reader’s leaving. (“Did we do anything wrong” can be a good feedback link tag-line to provide beside your Unsubscribe button.) 4.
