10: The Key to Ensuring Email Deliverability

Описание: In this episode I spoke with Lauren Meyer from Kickbox about deliverability, inbox placement, and how to ensure you maintain a healthy customer database.

While verifying your email data is very important, it only scratches the surface of deliverability and making sure customers actually read your emails.

How you collect your data is important as well, if you’re buying lists or engaging in some other dodgy tactics its highly likely you’ll end up with spam traps on your list, which will destroy your sending reputation.

Equally important is simply engagement. Do your customers actually read and click on your emails? If they don’t, email providers like Outlook and Gmail have no reason to place you in front of their users.
