After successfully onboarding with Folderly, it's vital to understand how to continue the journey efficiently. This guide offers a roadmap to optimize your email campaigns post-onboarding:
Step 1: Regularly Review Your Folderly Score
Frequency: Aim for daily checks, but at a minimum, every three days, especially before launching a new campaign.
Score Interpretation:
Blue Zone: Your campaigns are running smoothly with minimal spam risk.
Orange/Red Zone: Attention is required; potential spam indicators have been flagged.
Step 2: Understand and Act on the Score Insights
If you're in the orange or red zones:
Identify Problem Areas: Thoroughly review the highlighted spam triggers.
Take corrective action: Carefully analyze the highlighted spam triggers. Read the article on spam triggers to eliminate the problem.
Step 3: Refresh and Revitalize Your Email Templates
Why? Fresh content not only maintains audience engagement but also reduces the risk of being flagged by repetitive spam algorithms.
How Often? Rotate and renew templates quarterly.
Step 4: Keep a Close Watch on Key Outreach Metrics
Metrics offer invaluable insights:
Open Rate: Helps gauge the effectiveness of your subject lines and content relevancy.
Bounce Rate: Consistently ensure it's below 5%. High bounce rates can hurt your credibility.
Sending Limits: Abide by the 200 emails/day/address rule to maintain a positive sender reputation.
Email Interval: A 180-200 second gap between emails prevents overloading servers and minimizes spam flags.
Tip: Using analytics tools can give you deeper insights into metrics and help in making data-driven decisions.
Step 5: Be Proactive with Anomalies
A sudden decline in open rates despite a perfect Folderly Score can be alarming:
React Promptly: Engage with your Client Success Manager (CSM) for insights, or reach out to support@folderly.com for guidance.
Tip: Always maintain a clear line of communication with your service providers. They often possess insights that you might not immediately see.
