How many times have you come back from a holiday and set about the mundane task of clearing out your inbox? And have you ever stopped to pay attention to how few of those emails you actually feel compelled to read immediately or save for later?
The average human receives at least 15 marketing emails every single day. Most of those emails are either stuffy, boring or just plain spamtastic. It’s no wonder the average email open rate is way below 20%.
