Unlocking Email Deliverability: Beyond the Send Button

Introduction: The Journey from Sent to Delivered Emails

Since our inception, we’ve recognized a crucial truth: a sent email doesn’t necessarily equate to a delivered email. Ensuring emails reach their intended recipients has been a constant focus for us. After all, having an extensive email list is pointless if the emails don’t make it to their destinations.

The Email Delivery Conundrum: Unraveling the Mystery

Ever wondered why your emails might not be making it to the inbox? Essentially, Outlook and Gmail, like any products, prioritize user satisfaction. If a user’s inbox is inundated with spam, blame initially falls on the senders, but prolonged frustration might turn towards the email service itself.

At 3E, our commitment to content delivery, whether it’s an email or an ad, has been unwavering since day one.

Jami Hornbuckle sheds light on our approach:

“A modern-day email marketing strategy is a combination of science and art.”

Understanding the intricacies of email deliverability, we closely monitor factors such as spam scores. Hornbuckle emphasizes the role of AI in shaping what users see, a principle applicable not only to emails but also to social platforms delivering both paid and organic content.
