Your Guide to Successful Email Delivery
Retarus Deliverability Guide
Recent studies show that approximately 20 percent of emails sent never reach their destination, even when sent to recipients who actually want them to make matters worse, undelivered emails harm companies in two respects. A reduced deliverability rate of marketing campaigns is closely tied to a loss of turnover. In fact, the turnover potential that ends up in the spam folder each year has been estimated to be around three billion Euros in Germany alone. However, having messages erroneously classified as spam causes more harm than just these direct financial losses. When the sending address ends up on a blacklist, the reputation of the company and brand suffer along with turnover, including the company in question getting a negative rating as an email sender.

“Whether it’s a newsletter, order confirmation, password change message, or status notification, the quick delivery of transactional emails plays a crucial role in the customer journey,” says Roland Augustin, Vice President Global Marketing at Retarus. “Transactional emails sent in large volumes only reach their recipients if your sender reputation remains consistently high.”
