Do e-mail marketing, is not that gets the mailbox address, to send them a message, it finished the fix? Of course not. Let us say for the implementation of e-mail marketing, you should continue to focus a few data, which only allow you to detect e-mail marketing effectiveness, but also allows you to better improve your email marketing program.


1, E-mail List


E-mail address to get a lot of ways, you can grab their own software, you can buy, you can also subscribe to get a natural, no matter by what means to get, you should list your number of continuing concern.


A few examples, say you are the original 1000 mailbox list, subscribe by natural means over the three months and found that mail list is 1020, three months increased by only 20 subscribers, then you have to Note, the natural growth alone is no effect, and can spend money to buy some of the e-mail address for testing, screening out of your target audience.

For those who strictly observe the rules of permission-based email marketing person, how to prevent their high-quality filter will filter out e-mail it? In this regard, we have four small suggestions:


First, the recipient of your e-mail address included in the initiative, which is a bit difficult, and can explain the situation in the mail, I believe you will be loyal customers included;


Second, and mail service providers to contact them to you as a white list;


Third, the message header to avoid use of the word advertising;
