Round 4

Round 4 was completed for the full 500 shoppers. Total registrations at Sunday Feb 24 is 67 registrations. Upto 85 registrations at Monday night – yielding 18 from 500 = 3.2% so far. Total registrations on Wednesday morning are 90 = 4.5%  Now 92 by Friday
At this rate I’ll get 1,170 subscribers

Round 3a

Round 3a (below) is slightly different because it pushes a mystery shopping issue – hopefully will appeal to the database it came from. Total before sending 3b is 32 signups in total.  It’s now 5 days in and 10 registrations for 10b.  10 for 250 people being = 2.5% again.

As always, thank you [...]

Round 2b

I mailed out to 273 people with the following below. As you can see – this one is aimed more at the people on the database, the shoppers.
Three days after the mailout there are 18 email subscribers. This execution was more successful. So 8 subscribers for 273 mailed = 3% Still Crap. [...]

Second Test mailout

Second test mailout has just gone out to 250 people.
Results after 2 days show total subscribers = 10
About the same takeup as the first, very slight improvement. Not good enough.
Interesting because I think I have a good database but there were 31 bounced emails from a list of 250.
