Oracle Marketing Consulting: Issue 64

With MPP eroding marketers’ engagement data everyday…

It’s time to make sure that you’re protecting your deliverability. If you haven’t already, start exploring new ways to define active email marketing audiences and reexamine whether to add double opt‑in protection to some of your subscriber acquisition sources. Whatever you do, don’t treat auto opens as a form of engagement. That’s a surefire way to get your emails blocked.

In this issue:

  • Why & how to implement BIMI
  • Open-triggered email alternatives
  • Should emails expire? Yes & no
  • Poll results: Have a loyalty program?
 
 
 
Oracle Marketing Consulting’s Daniel Deneweth also talks about the 3 key benefits of BIMI.

 What’s the best fix? 
 
 
Oracle’s Chad S. White explores the issue of whether marketers should be given the ability to set a date for their emails to delete themselves to avoid the societal cost of storing irrelevant messages.

Should Emails Expire? Yes and No

Many of the barriers that stopped the idea of auto‑deleting emails from gaining traction a decade ago are still problems today.

Say What?

 

“It’s more accurate to interpret an auto open as ‘delivered’ rather than ‘opened.’ If you do that, you’re much more likely to use auto opens responsibly.”
