A sample calculation shows the economic effect of cancellations.

Militarily, the To reduce the notification rate, 0.8% per shipment, the cumulative number of cancellations would be only 34%! But what to do? At first glance, the relationships seem simple: stronger response on opening and click-through rates is a sure sign of higher relevance of the newsletter and must inevitably lead to lower the reporting rates.

And so is any action that leads to an increase of the relevance of the newsletter also suitable to reduce the registration rate. \”The truth is not quite so simple, Santibanez explains in his article: an evaluation of the last 10,000 E-Mail campaigns sent by us showed that the registration rate increases with the opening rate.\” 10 percentage points more open rate cost about 0.2 percentage points more drop-registration rate. In other words, At the moment, where you can increase your open rate from 30% to 40%, their drop-registration rate which previously perhaps has 0.5%, will grow to as expected 0.7%. A thinking or miscalculation? No, a simple consideration shows this amazing Effect.
