How do I Increase my Open Rates?

An open rate is a measurement that describes how many people have opened your email. Usually this is a percentage measured against how many emails you sent out. It is difficult to pinpoint what is an acceptable open rate because every database and industry is different. But a round figure for an email marketing campaign to aim for would be 25%-35% open rate.

Kevin Garber (General Manager) - Oct 25, 2007

Whether you are a business who sells products or services, we can all benefit from communicating regularly to our customers. But this doesn’t always have to be with direct selling and I would actually advise against sending too much EDM (Electronic Direct Mail) as you can upset your database and ultimately cause them to unsubscribe.
