You’ve Come A Long Way, Baby (e-mails)

We studied results reviewing our marketing via e-mail and found some interesting facts.  Our Bankruptcy data and list compilation division, known as BEBdata, has generated 11 e-mail blasts over the past 9 months.  Over that period of time, we’ve reduced bounced a staggering 63.1% and earned an average open rate of 36.7%.  Silverpops, Mail Chimp and Constant Contact report the average opening rate is around 19%.

We also studied a graph comparing the time of day we sent an e-mail blast to the number of opens received.  The results are inconclusive but fascinating none-the-less, and begs the question, “Does the time of day that you send an e-mail matter?”  What do you think?

Multi-channel Marketing that includes e-mail works!

2013-04-03 email last call STATSWe’re compiling date from our marketing efforts to drive attendance to an industry association annual conference held in April.  The campaign included direct mail, e-mail, social media and networking.  The first group of data we are gathering is the e-mail returns.  This e-mail was sent 60-days prior to the event and focused on the golf tournament and offered links to the other aspects of the conference.  We achieved a 27.3% Open Rate, 16.3% click rate, 0.4% opt out and registered 6 people within 24-hours of it being sent.

That’s success!

7% of attendees respond to an e-mail request

2013-04-03 email last callAs we continue to research results from our e-mail portion of the multi-channel marketing campaign for an industry association annual conference, we see that this e-mail is driving people to book their hotel room to ensure they receive the conference discounted rate.  We launched a full attack using Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn AND e-mail as the hotel’s cut-off date neared.  This email (left) received a 30% open rate and netted 7 additional room reservations within a 72-hour period.
