  • Fix 0% open rate

    The open rate being 0% is very unlikely and is a technical issue in most cases.

    The main one might occur if you are sending an HTML campaign. If that is the case, ensure that the campaign content follows the standard HTML structure. Otherwise, no statistics will be displayed in the report.

    That’s it!

    Setting up the Unsubscribe confirmation is a very easy process. Simply go to Settings, General settings and then enable the “Ask for unsubscribe confirmation” option that is under “Other settings”. Do not forget to save the changes!

    After your subscriber clicks the Unsubscribe button, they will be redirected to another page to confirm their unsubscription.

    A scheduled campaign can be edited at any time before it gets sent. If you want to edit the time when the campaign gets sent, simply go to Email campaigns and click Edit schedule.

    If you want to edit any other part of the campaign, e.g., its title, the preview text, the sender’s email, recipients, or content, you will have to cancel the schedule and edit the campaign as any other draft.

  • Include/exclude groups and segments

    Overview

    To maximize your campaign performance, you should only contact those recipients that are engaged and are looking forward to your campaign.  You might want to avoid contacting some of your recipients:

    • Exclude recipients that are unengaged and that might damage your sender reputation. You should clean up your list regularly to maintain a truly engaged audience. Here is more on how to achieve that.

    • Avoid sending your campaign to people that might not be interested in specific content. Having a well-organized subscriber list with detailed custom fields and appropriate groups can help target specific subscribers that will be excited to receive.

    Including/excluding groups and segments

    After creating the campaign, in the Subscribers section, deselect “All active subscribers,” and you will be presented with two columns “Send to these groups/segments” and “Exclude groups/segments”. 

    The first column is for the subscribers that you want to send the campaign to and the second one is for the groups and segments that you want to exclude from the recipients’ list. 

    If a subscriber belongs to a group/segment that you choose to send the campaign to and the segment/group that you exclude from the recipients – the subscriber will NOT receive the campaign.

    The total number of selected recipients is presented at the very bottom. 

    That’s it!

  • Identify engaged subscribers

    Here you will learn how to clean your subscriber list and maintain excellent deliverability by identifying and removing unengaged recipients. 

    30-day engaged

    This is a list of your most engaged clients. If you have 100k+ subscribers, we would highly recommend contacting only your most engaged subscribers to maintain a high open rate and make sure that your email campaigns land directly in your recipients’ inboxes.

    To sort out the most engaged subscribers for the past 30 days, go to Subscribers -> Advanced filter. 

    Set the advanced filter to show those subscribers that have Opened a campaign in the past 30 days (one month). 

    Save it as a new segment and name it accordingly.

    Before you send another campaign, make sure to update your most engaged subscribers’ segment. Do that by going to Subscribers -> Saved segments. Click on the segment.

    Change the date to 1 month ago from today.

    After that, simply Update the segment and choose it as your recipient for your campaign.

    120-day most engaged

    Reaching out to a bigger and less engaged audience is great when announcing something exciting or trying to get back your clients by offering them a discount. If someone has not engaged with any of your campaigns in the past 4 months, they are very unlikely to open any of them at this point.

    To sort out the most subscribers that engaged with your mailed content for the past 120 days, go to Subscribers -> Advanced filter. 

    Set the advanced filter to show those subscribers that have Opened a campaign in the past 120 days (go back 4 months from today in the calendar provided).

    Before you send another campaign, make sure to update your most engaged subscribers’ segment. Do that by going to Subscribers -> Saved segments. Click on the segment.

    Change the date to 4 months ago from today.

    After that, simply Update segment and choose it as your recipient for your campaign.

    That’s it!
