Best Practices to generate leads through your email marketing campaigns
1- Try not to Purchase Contact Lists
This is of no surprise, as we are already aware of the guidelines rollout by General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) with data consent. Email campaigns rely upon a sound open rate, and in case you’re reaching readers whose data you have purchased – instead of genuinely earned it – you’ll rapidly observe your messages’ execution drop. The GDPR additionally requires every European recipient’s assent before you connect with the users or visitors, and purchased email lists usually do not come with that consent.2- Use Incentives/Benefits to Increase Open Rates
When you incorporate a motivator/benefit in the subject line of your email campaign, you can increase open rates by as much as half. For example, “Free transporting when you shop for more than Rs 500” and “Get a free iPod with demo“.

A portion of your email contacts probably won’t quit your email newsletters, yet at the same time never open your messages.

Individuals who never open messages aggravate your battle look since you’re not investigating the campaign’s quality against your most loyal recipients. Break down who hasn’t locked in with your messages over a specific timeframe, and keep on removing them on a regular basis. There is no point to keep junk in your subscribers’ list. This gives you a more precise email open rate and keeps your email campaign clean of the people who are no longer interested in hearing from you.6- Keep the Main Message and Call-to-Action Above the Fold
If your main call-to-action (CTA) falls below the fold, as many as 70% of recipients won’t see it. Also, any CTA should be repeated at least three times throughout the email in various places and formats.

How regularly do you read messages that start, “Dear Member”?

You don’t need to personalize the email by writing each name manually. Email marketing tools allow configuring the greeting of your email campaign so that it automatically sends with the name of the people on your contact list – so everyone is getting a personal version of the same message.8- Keep Your Email 500-650 Pixels Wide
If your email format is wider than 650 pixels, you’re requesting that readers scroll horizontally to read your entire message.

Every automated assistant/responder email ought to likewise incorporate content or bonus material to reward the reader for opting into the newsletter — or your readers might not feel they have enough incentive to actually opt-in.12- Direct Emails to Landing Pages
