How many times have you written the PERFECT email that leads to the most compelling sales page your team has ever created… you’re so pumped to send it out to your list… you KNOW it’s pure gold and will convert to $$…

And then crickets.

You wonder why the sales aren’t rolling in, so you check your email stats and find out that only 5% of your list even opened the email in the first place. So frustrating!!

Whether you’re brand new to the game, or have a list of over 100,000 people… there is ONE thing that will always be on your mind:

“How can I increase my open rates?”

Today, I’m going to share 4 surprisingly easy tips to increase your open rates.

But first…

Here’s what a 2 of our clients have to say about my team’s ability to increase their open rates:

“If content is king, then Jennifer and her Conscious Copy & Co. are Queen! Jennifer brought our email list up to a whole other level of engagement that not only got our subscribers talking more, but doing more. Oh, and she also got us higher open rates, conversions, and responses. – Matt Gottesman, Founder of Makers & Moguls

“Although I’ve been in the online space for 10+ years and have 500,000 followers combined over my social media platforms, I didn’t know what I was doing when it came to email. We created a clear path for my tribe to understand who I am, what I’m about, and how I can help them. I cannot recommend Conscious Copy enough. I’ve had more sales, better open rates, and connection with my customer. I want everybody to know about this.” -Danny-J Johnson, Social Media Influencer and Founder of #FindTheMoneyProject & DannyJ.com
