3Avoid purchasing email lists

Not only is sending without permission illegal, most purchased email lists are poor quality, contain spam traps, and can damage your sender reputation.

4Reactivate or eliminate inactive contacts

Unengaged emails are valid email addresses that no longer open or click on your email sends. Develop reactivation campaigns to re-engage them or purge from your list.

5Avoid spam filters & optimize deliverability

Ensure the content you are sending is valuable and high quality. Low quality, spam-triggering content drives down your deliverability rates and sender reputation.
