Hi John,

I'm having a terrible time with open rates. I recently turned off the confirmation email (which I realise would make my stats look lower), and my first emails delivering the free tracks have open rates as low as from about 30%-50% (I have 3 funnel variations going).

I recently set up Custom DKIM and SPF, and have done various spam tests. But am wondering if you have any other advice, tips? Or is this typical? I feel like it would double or triple subscriber acquisition costs from my conversion rates on facebook, if less than half are actually seeing that first email.

Cheers!
Rachel

Hi Rachel,

It will take too long before you will get an accurate read of the new stats. Please clone your campaign and create a new tag, and run all the new traffic to the new campaign so you can get a fresh view of what exactly the new open rates are. Let me know what they look like after you have 50 - 100 new subs come through and we can go from there.

Having trouble with your marketing? Wish you could have an experienced direct-to-fan marketing expert look over your actual campaigns, music, or content and offer feedback? Or perhaps you’re just looking for a little one-on-one assistance so you can ask questions that pertain to your specific goals and get a second, more experienced, perspective?
