How Much Are Your Emails Worth?
As marketers, we’re continuously asked to prove the effectiveness and ROI of our organisation’s marketing efforts, and even more so when it comes to email marketing. Email marketing is without a doubt the undefeated champion of all marketing channels. In fact, email marketing will earn you £33 (€39) for every £1 (€1.2) spent —if not more, when done right.
Are You Doing Email Marketing Right?
Calculate your email marketing ROI with our tool below to find out.
To get started, enter your values in the input fields below or adjust the sliders. Your results will be generated in real-time to the right.
Here’s an example:
You have an abandoned cart workflow consisting of three emails and you want to calculate the ROI of those emails combined.
The open rates are as follows:
- Campaign 1: 25%
- Campaign 2: 20%
- Campaign 3: 15%
To calculate the ROI of your workflow, add each open rate and divide by the number of emails (in our example, three).
Your workflow ROI is 20%.
