Email services have been a powerful marketing channel in part because it requires users to take action; an email will remain in the inbox until it is read, deleted, or archived.

Email campaigns can help you create connections with your target audience while also driving blog traffic, social media, or wherever you want them to go. You can also divide your email addresses and attract the audience based on demographics to ensure that you only send individuals the messages they desire to see.

Using email marketing tools that can also be programmed to easily send out emails, you can also do A/B testing of a subject line or call to action to find the most effective performing content.

How to Calculate Open and Click-through Rates in Email Marketing Campaigns?

For example, if you have an e-mail marketing list of 10,000 people and your average email open rate is 15%, 1500 people have opened your email. If your click-through rate is 2% on average, 200 people will click on each email sent.

If you have never done email marketing before, these rates may be low. I recommend you to work on increasing the number of your customers on your list. “How do I grow my mailing lists?” If you are wondering about our strategies for your questions, contact us.
