    You ask, we answer.
    .
    How do I measure my email marketing campaign?

    The effectiveness of your campaign can be measured by basic email metrics. There are five key components that you should measure:

  • Number Sent- Total number of emails sent.
  • Number Received- Total number of emails delivered.
  • Bounce Back- Number of emails rejected.
  • Open Rate- Total number of emails divided by total number delivered.
  • Response Rate- % of unique readers who clicked on unique links embedded in the email.
  •  

    Open for business.
