- LAURENCE Determines Your Placement Inbox/Bulk/Blocked Otherwise Known as Deliverability Determines Your Success in reaching the inbox Is a Reflection of How Well You Are Doing
- LAURENCE 1 in 5 emails never sees the inbox; Refer to most recent RP study. Non-delivery (which are messages not delivered at all or delivered to the junk/bulk folder) – has started to level off around 20%. Therefore you need to know your inbox placement rate – the percentage of emails that actually make it into your subscribers’ inboxes. Many marketers think they know how well they are doing because of reports that report a “delivered rate.” Often the “delivered rate” is actually their bounce rate. Sent minus bounce does not equal delivered. You need the additional IPR rate to truly know how your email program is doing. Not knowing the IPR rate is one of the main reasons why email has problems reaching its rightful place in the marketing mix. You send the mail out, its just not certain that the mail is going to get there. Uncertainty of inbox placement is a very real economic problem for both B2B and B2C marketers.

- LAURENCE A Recipient Response You Must Track and Remove From Your List Mostly Come From ‘Mark As Spam’ Clicks Reliable Indicator of Subscriber Relationship Watch For Trends Complaints are critical to measure and reduce, and probably even more so. The ISPs will be calculating complaint rates based off active subscribers instead of total volume sent. This means that you may see an increase in your complaint rates, even though the number of complaints has stayed the same. Continue reducing complaints, but now you may need to dig deeper into WHY your subscribers are complaining. Common factors for complaints are lack of permission or disclosure at the point of email collection, mailing too frequently, or the content isn’t relevant or what was expected. Analyze the data points you currently have to find those trends.

- LAURENCE and/or MATT Battle between large list with tons of potential and smaller list that meets its potential – tough choice and tough argument. If you don’t have confidence that you are optimizing what you have, then the battle against the list with potential is a difficult one. Understanding how to get the most from the best will always gain better results. One of the most critical and foundational components for email success are your list acquisition and maintenance rules. Where do you get your email addresses. What do your subscribers know about your program when they sign up? What rules do you use to process your data? Can anyone sign up? Do you confirm that the subscriber is legitimate? Are you protected from malicious subscription? Do you track your actives and inactives? Do you trend positive metrics vs. negative to determine when you need to drop older, inactive data? Do you test re-permissions to gauge interest?
- MATT Sending to Someone Who Does Not Exist Repeated Occurrences Affect Reputation Rates Over 10% Can Get You Blocked Requires List Maintenance
- MATT Hard bounces - AKA 5XX Bounces, Generally Mean the Message Will Not Be Delivered If Retried May Be Due to Nonexistent Recipients (Unknown Users) Blacklists Lack of Authentication Resending Will Damage Reputation Soft bounces - AKA 4XX Bounces, Generally Mean That Message May Be Delivered if Retried May Be Due To Sending Too Many Messages at One Time Poor Reputation Issue with the Recipient Resending Will Not Damage Reputation Look at Results for Clues
- MATT An Extension of List Maintenance Addresses Set Up or Repurposed to Capture Senders that Do Not Maintain Their Lists or Are Not Using Best Practices to Grow Their Lists A Closely Guarded Secret
- LAURENCE While you don’t have to re-permission your file every quarter, it’s important to remind subscribers that they have a choice about your program. Land’s End sends periodic emails with the only purpose being to remind subscribers that they are on the file.
- LAURENCE Build Relationship with Audience (per previous session) Establish Brand Identity Compelling? Relevant! Critical for Success
- LAURENCE How Does It Look? One Size Does Not Fit All Check Rendering at Multiple Domains and in Mobile Applications Check Content Filters Like SpamAssassin
- MATT Sets Strong Foundation Simplest Issues to Fix Typically Buttoned Up if Using Larger ESP Standard Checks Should be Run Any time something changes (new brand, domain, IPs, Mail server, ESP) Sending Permanence slide: First you establish your infrastructure and then you establish a reputation on your IP’s that use that infrastructure through sending permanence Associates You to Your Sending Reputation Allows Latitude Based on Reputation Authentication slide: Validates Email Sent is Really Coming From You Developed to specifically help with phishing and spoofing. This is when malicious entities try to steal your identity and compromise your subscribers trust with your brand for their own gain Analogous to Driver’s License Confirms Identity Doesn’t Represent the Quality of a Sender
- MATT Return Path Certified Goodmail Certified Certifies You as a Quality Sender Standards Defined and Upheld to stay on list Analogous to HOV Lane Pass
- LAURENCE Delivery Sent Delivered vs Bounces Opens, Clicks Non-responders Opt-outs, Complaints Deliverability Inbox, Junk, Missing Reputation
- LAURENCE If Your Email is Relevant You match appropriate offer & audience That’s the easy part Relevance ALSO Means Knowing when addresses become less responsive Knowing when addresses become undeliverable Managing that data Re-confirmation mailings ECOA ISPs only care about their users which happen to be your subscribers. Their primary goal is to make email enjoyable and useful. The #1 concern with email users is subscriber fatigue. 2009 Forrester: 9000 marketing message a year per consumer: almost 25 a day. We get too much email that we can’t keep up with it all. We also get a lot of spam, which is the largest obstacle for ISPs. ISPs do block a lot of spam. Change the Denominator Mail to audiences that have a higher propensity to respond Eliminate people who are not responding Increase ROI From Relevance & Deliverability Slide: Increased Reputation with ISPs Lower complaint rates Lower bounce rates Eliminate trap addresses Higher Delivery Rates Higher Inbox Presence Higher Opens/Clicks Build and Maintain Good IP Reputation Most Impactful Variable in Deliverability Reputation is Based on Many Factors Including: Longevity of IP Volume/frequency Complaints (< .5%) Bounces (< 10%) Authentication Spam Traps “ Role” accounts (sales@, info@. . . )
- LAURENCE Branding is one of the single most important steps you can take as a marketer. First, it establishes your brand and helps to build brand recognition, but additionally it helps keep you compliant and helps minimize false positives around abuse complaints and phishing attempts. Your brand is used to build relationships Goal is to make Subscribers open and engage with your emails. I want to explain the difference between Brand and Reputation here.
- LAURENCE Important for Subscribers to recognize your Brand and what you are sending: Branded From Email Address Branded From Name Branded Subject Line Branded Links Fact: email originating from well-known brands have higher opens, clicks, conversions
- LAURENCE Prominently display your company name in the Friendly From and logo in the preview pane
- MATT Comment on spear phishing Spam is still 85-90% of email. Spam filters have a tough job and catching new strains of malicious email is hard, especially phishing. Spam dropped from 300 billion emails in June 2010 to 40 billion in June 2011 Targeted Phishing Attacks Up 400% (Source: Cisco Security Whitepaper Email Attacks: This Time It’s Personal , June 2011) 260 million phishing emails sent every day 20 million new malware strains created in 2010 $2 – cost of creating and hosting a phishing scam
- MATT Lifetime benefit of a customer who a brand has an email address from is twice that of one where they do not have an email address Being able to market to customers over email is extremely important and so it is also important that they can trust the email coming from your brand Phishing Attacks are a Race Against Time: With 90% of credentials stolen within 10 hours, there is no need for them to stay up longer
- MATT ISPs and big mailbox providers are starting to block unauthenticated emails Maintain Customer Trust Protect Brand Reputation Minimize Financial Impact Secure Your Email Communication Domain Assurance Takedown services: Mark Monitor, Internet Identity, Brand Protect, Fraud Watch, RSA, and Cyveillance
- MATT Consider compliance more as data governance US does not have a universal Privacy law covering email and all other digital means – Patchwork of industry, local, state and federal laws Prominently display Privacy statement during sign-up – make it easy to find and easy to read
