Spam Mail #3 World Vision

Emails That Land My Spam #1 World Vision  Messages

Email Marketing Rules Broken 


1. I am not subscribed to their mailing list.
2. I marked all messages from site2sms spam. So World Vision India should do some investigation before using a third party medium to send messages.

Update: I received their mail again and this time it landed in my "Updates" tab and it had unsubscribe link too. I unsubscribed.

Thanks,

How I Feel When I Receive Personalized Welcome Emails?

Now a days, everybody is talking about personalized newsletters and how they can help you get high open rates. Though i agree that these newsletters make me open their emails but they also force me to close it as soon as I open. Why?

because..

1. although they personalize the email with my name, content is definitely not me.
2. Content is too lengthy and I don't have time to go through it.
3. Too many fonts, CTAs and scattered content.
4. Single font type but font choice is terrible. Looks totally spam!!
5. Blue hyperlinks in bold and underlined. Looks spammy!

And there are more! Will keep adding.

Thanks,

What Are The Cases When An Email Can Be Marked As Open?

How do you determine that the mails were actually opened? 

1. When a recipient actually opens an email in inbox. (HTML Mail)

In this scenario, the javascript pixel should load, only then an email will be marked as open considering that you have tracking pixels within the email.

2.  If a recipient clicks on an a link in an email. (TEXT Email)

Next question: Is the open rate we get in reporting tool correct?

Thanks.
