SIX EMAIL FIXES THAT PRINT MONEY
I’m sharing this now because these weeks before Christmas can be a great time to run the easy fixes that set you up nicely in the year ahead. And you WILL see the revenue lift…
1. Fix your footer
Outdated links, missing policies, and “no-reply” emails quietly kill trust right before the click. When was the last time somebody checked yours?
2. Rewrite abandoned cart emails like a human
Stop reminding people they forgot and start answering why they hesitated. See what’s working and “borrow” it or your flows will look outdated and dull.
3. Kill “no-reply@”
Two-way emails convert better, build trust faster, and surface objections you can sell against. No brainer.
4. Delay the welcome discount
Lead with proof and positioning first, or you’ll train customers to wait for coupons. Or look at the perks you can offer instead of discounting, such as bundled extras, free shipping etc.
5. Send one plain-text email a week
No design, one idea, one CTA. These consistently outperform “pretty” campaigns.
6. Clean your list aggressively
Cold subscribers hurt deliverability, which hurts revenue more than unsubscribes ever will. Get rid of those who didn’t bring anything to the party in 2025.
