These are the seven BIGGEST email marketing mistakes:
1) POOR SEGMENTATION
Your audiences are tired of generic marketing.
They don’t want the same offers that everyone else who buys from you receives.
Give your customers targeted content based on their past behavior, demographics, and needs.

2) GENERIC SUBJECT LINES
Sending generic, off-the-shelf subject lines will relegate your emails to the junk bin or spam folder...

3) WRITING FOR ENGLISH CLASS
Forget everything you learned in school and write personal, direct, and easy-to-read copy.

6) UNCLEAR CTA
Confused people don’t buy.
And half of the world is kind of retarded

7) POOR LIST HYGIENE
