Helping E-Commerce Companies Build and Operate the Marketing Systems They Need to Speed Up Growth

Why do subscribers stop opening your emails?

It comes down to not emailing enough (when customers forget you exist) or sending too many promos (you get tuned out.)

This is how you can build that presence more effectively:

• Aim for 1-3 emails a week
• Mix value content with offers so it’s not a constant sales pitch
• Stay consistent long enough for subscribers to recognize you in their inbox

That balance is what keeps open rates steady and revenue predictable.

Inconsistent revenue from email isn't random. It means something in your setup is missing.

These three flows keep sales steady in the background:

1. Welcome email → makes a strong first impression right away
2. Abandoned cart → brings back people who were already close to buying
3. Post-purchase → turns one-time buyers into repeat customers

If even one of these isn't running, you'll keep seeing spikes and drops instead of consistent results.

Get the structure right first. Then focus on optimizing your campaigns.

Don't ask, "How do I get more email sales?"

A better question is, "How do I get more out of each order?”

Shift your approach to improve your AOV like this:

• Show product bundles or complete routines
• Upsell after purchase, when trust is already there
• Try "spend more, get more" instead of defaulting to discounts

Have you tried any of these methods?

If your email campaigns aren't improving, you might be tracking the wrong things.

Here's what actually tells you what's going on:

• Opens → are people paying attention?
• Clicks → are they interested in what you're saying?
• Sales → is your offer doing its job?

Low clicks? Your content or messaging needs work. Low sales? Look at your offer or your landing page.

Let the numbers show you where your emails are working and where they’re not.

“Thank you for subscribing” isn’t the most compelling message to get after signing up for an email list.

Your welcome email is your highest attention moment.

Subscribers just signed up. They’re paying the most attention right now.

Use this high-attention moment to

- show them what makes your brand worth it
- point them to your best sellers or an offer
- make the next step obvious

Don’t make them guess about the next step; guide them to it.

If your email list is just saying “hello” or “thank you," it's not saying enough.

Barely getting any email opens?

We bet your subject line isn’t pulling its weight.

Put yourself in a subscriber’s shoes:

• Is it relevant to you?
• Would you open it?
• Does it give you a reason to click?

If you said “no” to any of these, try writing subject lines that
- call out a real problem
- hint at what’s inside
- clearly show the benefit

Fix your subject line first, then see how your emails perform.

If your email campaign results aren’t improving, you could be looking at the wrong signals.

Open rates, list size, and quantity sent might look good, but sales say otherwise.

This is what shows true performance:

Clicks → Are people interested?
Conversions: Are they buying?
Revenue per email → Is it working?

Opens without clicks means your content needs improvement.

Clicks without sales mean your offer needs work.

Before you double down on what is working, start looking at what’s NOT working.

What’s the right balance of email frequency?

Emailing too much means people tune out. Open rates drop, clicks go down, unsubscribes go up.

Not emailing enough, and they forget you. Low engagement and even lower sales.

Here’s what works:

1. Start with 1–2 emails a week for a few weeks.
2. Send a mix of value and promo emails.
3. Stay consistent (same days/times if possible.)
4. Compare open rates, CTRs, and sales vs. the previous frequency.
5. Adjust your campaigns to what’s working.

Never guess about email frequency again!

Do you open an email that immediately wants to sell you something?

Of course not. Neither do your subscribers.

Too many promotions cause fatigue. Too few promotions and you’ll miss out on sales.

Create a mix of value emails (ones that solve problems, give helpful information, and build trust) and promotional emails (ones that drive sales).

Tips to use this mix:

-Use 2-3 value emails per 1 promotional email
-Track open rate, CTR, and conversions to see what people respond to
-Adjust the mix as you go (keep your subscribers on their toes!)

A value-first, promo-second email strategy keeps subscribers engaged while keeping that trust.

Generic emails are out.

Dynamic content blocks are in.

What dynamic content blocks can do is allow you to change parts of your email based on who’s reading it.

Use dynamic content blocks to show your subscribers:

→ Products related to something they already bought
→ Products they left in their cart
→ Pages they browsed on
→ Links they click in previous emails

This way, every subscriber sees something relevant to them. It’s the right message to the right person at the right time.
