Maximizing List Value

Engagement compounds: Higher open rates lead to better deliverability, which leads to even higher open rates. Clean your list regularly—remove inactive subscribers to improve metrics.

Quality over quantity: A 1,000-subscriber list with 50% open rates is worth more than 10,000 subscribers at 5% opens. Focus on attracting the right subscribers.

The money is in the relationship: Promotional emails convert best when you've built trust through valuable content. The 80/20 rule: 80% value, 20% promotion.
