You think you’re doing everything right–ticking all the boxes for the perfect email. You just know you’ve got it right this time and you’re sure you’ve finally cracked the code. . . you know your audience will love this one.

However, instead of the cha-ching sound of sales coming in from that email, you hear . . .  nothing.

Crickets.   🦗

Karon Thackston of Marketing Words knows just how that feels and she wants to help you avoid it. She shared 5 email marketing fails that doom your conversion rates. These are brilliant!

According to Karon, these 5 fails (aka mistakes) that can doom your conversion are:

“Skipping the planning phase.
Not varying your email copywriting style.
Not sending enough promotional emails.
Pretending to be someone else.
Always inserting a PS on persuasive emails.”

Which of these fails might you recognize in your own email marketing strategy? The good news is once you spot it, you can work on improving it. You can get all the in-between details for each of these ‘fails’ in Karon’s full article here.
