    • Maybe it's a bunch of fake emails?
    • Maybe your emails bounce?
    • Maybe your emails are spammy?
    • etc...

    Tell us something useful, or we can keep guessing.

    • i have a 3K+ email lists, i notice a few email address are a bunch of crap...but there are also real persons... i understand people don't take action and go about fence sitting for sometime before they take action, and this is frustrating coz it seems like talking to a blank wall. How to engage them another way? please advise.

  • What are you writing about in your emails?

    Do they provide value? Are they entertaining?

    If not, then that is most likely why your list is unresponsive.

    I always say: Value + Entertainment = A responsive list.

    • Those are the follow up emails sent from the autoresponders. a lot of them are the copy and paste done-for-you emails. I guess they don't work, but i got so frustrated that I stopped trying to engaged. However, I still see people has not unsubscribed, is there a way to re-engage them after over a month of silence?

      Thank you for advice.

  • Are you getting opens?
    Do you know the makeup of the domains in the list?
    How are you sending and do you know how well you are inboxing?

    • Getting opens but low. Kindly clarify what is meant by "makeup of the domains in the list" and "inboxing"? I am sending mails through Autoresponder.

      I do see fake email addresses...not names of people.

  • Offer Them a Free Giveaway and if they still don't respond, Chances are they are probably fake emails, they are real people but have marked as you spams, or they are just not interested in your content. Hopefully You got any help from me. Good Luck with your list building.

    • Thank you. Everytime I send out the email from the autoresponder, I check the spam score, and mostly is 1.1. Will try to give free something ....and hope it works.
  • You should see who are the real ones, the ones who opened your email and forget the others.
  • There are good points already made by others. Entertaining e-mails is hot. People want to be made to feel something emotionally, and you can engage using your own life experiences, that will be real to others. Example: How mad you got when your car broke down, wasted 4 hours at the side of the road, but thankfully you've got your commissions coming in on autopilot using your (offer) so it's not so bad... Get the idea?
  • Thank you all for your advice. Appreciate it...
  • I would delete all the emails that aren't good or get a new list. Clean it out save the emails that are opening your emails.
  • Normally I just delete them from my list
