Non opening of auto responder messages by subscribers

by Vikram Anand
11 replies
I am facing an issue with my auto responder messages (I am using Aweber).

As I am checking the statistics of the opening of the messages by my subscribers, I find that the immediate message is opened by 46% subscribers. Thereafter the subsequent messages opening statistics drops to 25-30% and by the time 10th message is reached less than 20% of my subscribers are opening my messages.
I am mostly using the email messages from the affiliate resources of the products that I am promoting through my website.

Warriors, please suggest how can I resolve this issue so that the % opening statistics of my autoresponder messages improves?

    Can you give us an example of some of the subject lines of your messages?

    Often emails will go unopened if your subject line isn't interesting.

    Also, in your autoresponder, is the email you're sending from a free address like Gmail, Yahoo, etc? If so, often your subscribers will never even see your messages as they can be flagged as spam by some email providers.

      4. Are you on the road to success [name]?
      5. Is your success being blocked by your limiting beliefs?
      6. Your secret code to break apart from your limiting beliefs

          Don't you think there would be too much of a delay if I send these follow up messages after an interval of 5-10 days??

    You need to test you subject lines and the people that dont click (Send the same email with another subject lines) also are you only promote product? You also need to provide value to your list, sometime give free value things.

    Also me personally (I hate that some marketer send me 4 email a day, that is abbusing my inbox) so i stop clicking that email and sometime i unbsubscribe.

    And for last, invite in your first email to people whitelist your email, so they always get you email (because you are using aweber, you email also can get in spam, i see a lot of internet marketer using aweber and they email always send to spam)

    Are you engaging the subscribers? Are you giving them good quality information they want? Or are you just marketing to them?

    Would you open emails with those headlines? They seem too spammy for me, you have to make people more curious, build more trust in you and ultimately strive for your next email..

    This happens with every autoresponder. Your first email usually gets the highest engagement, and slowly each email your engagement will drop. So if your autoresponder is 90 days, the opens on the 90th day are gonna be way less than on day 2 for example.

    A thing you can do to combat this is to add a cliff hanger at the end of every email. Something like "Tomorrow I'm going to be showing you how to do XYZ without having to blah blah".

      Thanks for your suggestions. I think cliffhangers like this would add a personal touch to my email subjects. I hope that should increase the chances of opening up of my emails. Worth trying
