“Why aren’t my emails working?”
You’ve heard that emails should be the most inexpensive and top converting channel for eCommerce.
That’s why you went all in – you’ve A/B tested your subject lines, rallied up your designer team, and created an offer your customers can’t ignore.
Yet, your open and click-through rates are still below the industry average. Your emails are not generating the revenue your business deserves but you can’t seem to pinpoint the issue.
One crucial yet often overlooked aspect of email marketing is its deliverability. That means, your copy and design prowess won’t matter if your emails end up in the junk folder.
So how can you make sure your emails are actually getting to your customers’ inboxes? Tune in for today’s highly anticipated episode with a very special guest, Francis Baker, Senior Deliverability and Compliance Specialist at Klaviyo.
