What to avoid in e-mail marketing campaigns
Check out some of the main mistakes to avoid in order to ensure the success of your strategy:


Buy e-mail lists
As tempting or convenient as it may seem to buy e-mail lists, remember that in addition to GDPR issues, you are sending e-mails to people who probably have no interest whatsoever in what your brand has to offer. For this reason, it is preferable to build an e-mail list, even if smaller, but with commercial value.


Not using mobile-friendly design
As with the website, e-mail marketing must use a design that is not only appealing, but also mobile-friendly. So, to provide a good user experience and avoid high bounce rates, make sure your e-mail template is also mobile-friendly.


Frequency of e-mails
Defining the frequency of sending e-mails can be decisive for the success of your e-mail marketing strategy.
Avoid sending too many e-mails, thus avoiding overloading your subscribers and reducing the likelihood that they will cancel the subscription.
