Email Open Rate Optimisation for India
Indian email open rates for financial content: 20-35% is good, 35%+ is excellent. Improve open rates: Use personal subject lines (‘I found something you need to know’), send Tuesday-Thursday mornings IST for B2B audience, send Sunday evenings for retail trader audience, avoid subject lines with ‘FREE’ in caps (triggers spam filters).
