In email marketing, marketers try every strategy to ensure they are able to make an opt-in list. May it be putting forth free downloadable content to making your presence felt in social networking sites.

What is a List Churn Rate?

List churn rate measures the percentage of subscribers those quit from your list in a given timeframe. There are two types of churn rate: the transparent one and the opaque churn rates. To make it clear here’s how both are different:

Transparent churn, or called as “voluntary churn”, incorporates withdraws, hard bounces and spam messages. These are individuals you can’t email to any longer, because of their activity (or inaction, on account of hard bounces).

Individuals can quit seeing your emails for two reasons:

1. Either your emails are going into their bulk or spam folders.
2. Or your emails are landing on an email account that isn’t checked by the user often.

Here are few tips which can be used as an alternative:

1. Give Customers a choice to “Opt down” as opposed to simply Unsubscribe
2. Segment your rundown so you can send more pertinent messages to your endorsers
3. Put more exertion into making drawing in messages
4. Test personalization
5. Try a couple of re-engagement crusades
6. Find out what content your supporters truly need by conveying an overview
7. Consider utilizing twofold select in, on the off chance that you aren’t utilizing it as of now

Give Customers a choice to “Opt down” as opposed to simply Unsubscribe

I wouldn't have thought of that! I didn't realize that people view opt-out differently than unsubscribe.
