Make sure to find the best time to send emails

Marketers usually send their email marketing campaign at a specific time they think is best for their whole list. Instead, senders should take into account individual behaviors to define the best day and time to send their campaign to each contact. To do so, and get high open rates, you can use a Send Time Optimization (STO) tool.

Based on data gathered from billions of promotional emails, STO automatically finds the ideal send time for each and every individual on your email list at the time that they are most likely to engage with your email. With STO, your email messages are delivered at the exact time your recipients are viewing their inbox, leaving your messages top of mind. By adapting to individual usage patterns and open times, your email is more likely to show up at the top of someone’s inbox and is more likely to be engaged with.

Use a Send Time Optimization feature and significantly increase your open rates, drive more engagement by interacting with your customers on a personalized one-to-one level, and increase the ROI for your email marketing by boosting conversions effortlessly.
