21 reasons why people don't read your newsletter anymore. Cyriel Kortleven created this slideshare as a last attempt to inactive subscribers in his mailinglist.

1. 21 reasons why
people don’t read your
newsletter anymore

2. You can have a very extensive mailinglist but the
question is if somebody is reading your stuff.
You can use this slideshare and send it to all inactive
subscribers to see if you can re-activate them (and
maybe you want to delete them if you get no response
back & save some money because normally you pay for
the number of subscribers that you have).
Enjoy and have fun!

different mailbox (mail-address)
