But rolling out emails for every new thing you’re experimenting with is not good. A person who gets 130 emails a day doesn’t have the stamina to bear with your incessant emailing. So don’t annoy your potential customers, rather limit your email sending frequency. And make sure that those few emails have something intriguing to offer which makes people take action. Stats have shown that receiving way too many emails annoy the customer and make them mark the sender’s emails as spam.

Understand the definition of spam from Consumers perspective:
Spammy messages were easy to identify before than now. Getting messages with the subject line stating “you have won a contest” with stars and other characters were easily detected as a spammy message. Spam can be some malicious, NSFW content. But with the improvement in email software, such messages now directly go to the spam folder.However, even legitimate subscribers now are marking the promotional emails as spam because they are sick of their inbox being bombarded with unnecessary and worthless messages. 57% of people say that getting irrelevant or way too many messages from sender makes them mark the content as spam.

Do not buy your business subscribers:
As I discussed earlier, the recipients who have subscribed to a particular brand are still marking the messages as spam. Imagine what would happen when people who haven’t subscribed to your platform start getting messages from you. There are greater chances of ending up in the spam folder instead. Furthermore, you’re also putting your brand’s credibility and your marketing campaigns at risk by violating the CAN-SPAM Act which is enforced by the Federal Trade Commission.Stay Relevant and Check spam risk before rolling out emails:
Provide relevant information in the emails and spam test risk before rolling them out. It can be of great help. Most of the email marketing softwares already have this feature embedded which checks for spam. It basically scans your email content and determines how much likely it is for your email to end up in the spam folder. In order to have a low spam risk, make sure that you don't use promotional words like free, buy, promo as less as possible.You certainly can use these words if necessary but don’t overdo it.

Master crafting the Subject Lines:
A key factor in a successful email marketing campaign is the catchy subject lines. You can draft the best promotional message but nobody will pay attention to it if it doesn’t have an intriguing subject to it. It is best practice to show the crux of the message into the subject line. In order to attain the high email opening rate, keep the subject line between 20 to 30 characters. Stats indicate that 70% of the emails get marked as spam based on their subject line. So be wise with the words in that area.Limit the Sending frequency:
As a marketer, you think about promoting your brand all the time. You come up with several creative ideas to promote your brand and increase sales. Marketing is basically a hit and trial type of a thing, you have to experiment with new ideas. Sometimes they work, sometimes don’t.But rolling out emails for every new thing you’re experimenting with is not good. A person who gets 130 emails a day doesn’t have the stamina to bear with your incessant emailing. So don’t annoy your potential customers, rather limit your email sending frequency. And make sure that those few emails have something intriguing to offer which makes people take action.
