If I ever write a book on email marketing (oh, wait I did, ahem, another book) it might be called “It depends.”
What’s a good email response rate?
It depends.
How many people will click?
It depends.
How many people will open it?
It depends.
Same for pop-up conversion, signups to newsletters, direct mail, AdWords….
It depends.
There are many variables that can affect the response you get from a mailing.
The three biggest are:
1) the quality of the list you use (the audience)
2) the offer – is it any good?
3) the creative (copy and graphics) in the email and on the landing page – this includes the words, the typeface, any photos or illustrations, the colors of the buttons, the button text, and the call to action
Lesser factors:
1) the time of day
2) the day of the week
Spend most of your time on the first three. Then worry about the last two.
