Actual Report of the Campaign
Constantly check who is opening and clicking on your email campaign. If an email id is not responding from the last 6 months, then make it delete from the email list. Plan a different email campaign for re-engaging the inactive subscribers. Twice times in a year, the email must be sent to inactive users and even after they didn’t respond, then you should be bold enough to let them go.Consequently, save time for aligning with the new users.
Practice Double Opt-In Subscription
For making the users subscribe with the valid email id, a double opt-in subscription is important. After the initial request for the email listing,another email is sent to the same email address that contains a link for confirming the subscription request.
Cleaning the email list can help the marketers in reducing the bounce rate, increase in CTR(Click Through Rate) and improves sender reputation. The marketers should practice refreshing the email listing to enrich the strength of email marketing.
