There are more channels than ever before for communicating with both customers and prospective customers. Knowing where to invest your resources (time, energy, and budget) is an important element for success. Having current and relevant data is the key to making intelligent decisions. In this second report on the impact mobile is having on email viewership, Return Path takes a look at the rapidly shifting trends and where people are viewing their email now.

Case Study Research Study Executive Summary
Definition of Terms • Mobile platforms are gaining ground when it comes Mobile: Generally speaking, this term is to email viewership with a 34% increase since our last pretty broad and is taken to mean SMS study which looked at data from October 2010 through messaging, apps, the mobile web and March 2011. Webmail is still the most popular platform more. For this report, we mean mobile for reading email, but mobile is showing huge growth email, not SMS, but those opens are recorded wherever the user is within the rates whereas webmail and desktop decreased by 11% mobile environment. So, that includes and nearly 9.5%, respectively. the native email client, email opens on a mobile web browser or within an email • Where email is viewed is heavily influenced by when it app. This also means we include opens on is viewed, with desktop ruling the weekdays and mobile both smartphones and tablets. spiking on the weekends. Desktop: This term refers to installed software that is viewed on a computer, • The use of the iPad for viewing email has exploded with be it a desktop or laptop computer. Does a 73% increase in email opens. this mean these are only B2B addresses, not consumer addresses? Mostly, but not • If you are viewing email with installed software on a necessarily. First, there are consumers that desktop, you are viewing it in Outlook or Apple Mail. All own domains and have email addresses other platforms combined make up a tiny share of the at those domains delivered to an installed software client. Second, some people total desktop views. POP their webmail (Yahoo!, Hotmail, etc.) Where is Email Most Often Read? into installed software like Outlook. In that instance, our Campaign Insight tool It might be a little hard to believe given all the ink that would count that as a desktop view, not a gets spilled covering the mobile revolution, but webmail webmail view. continues to be the dominant platform for email use, Webmail: These are emails viewed within a followed by desktop and mobile devices. webmail environment like Yahoo!, Hotmail and Gmail on a computer. Our Campaign Insight tool doesn’t count email viewed on While mobile still represents the smallest piece of the the webmail viewer of a mobile device such email open pie, it is showing a pattern of increasing usage as a smartphone or with a web browser that is impossible to ignore. In fact, Return Path data or a tablet like the iPad as webmail, but shows that email opens on mobile devices is up by 34% rather as we noted above, these opens are captured as mobile. from April 2011 through September 2011, as compared For more information, email us at rpinfo@returnpath.net or call 1-866-362-4577. © 2011 Return Path, Inc. www.returnpath.net v111811 2

Case Study Research Study with
the previous six month period. The relative number of opens on webmail and desktop decreased by 11% and nearly 9.5%, respectively. Where Email is Read: Webmail, Desktop and Mobile Views Mobile 23% 85.2% Webmail 44% Desktop 33% Mobile, Webmail, Desktops: Where are we viewing email now? Return Path Inc., 2011. Prediction: Email is an important business tool, so some combination of desktop and webmail use is likely to remain dominant well into 2012. But the number of people who opt for smartphones increases each quarter, meaning email viewership on these devices will continue to grow. Add in the iPad and we predict that mobile viewership number will tick up by a measurable amount by the end of 2012. Recommendation: Benchmarks are great for understanding the shifts in the market, but your company’s marketing strategy should be dictated by specific data on your subscribers. Figure out where they are viewing email so you can send them relevant messages. Relevance is about more than just content.

Case Study Research Study How Day of Week Affects Email Usage As
with our previous version of this report, we again find that where people read their email is affected by when they are reading it. Our research finds a big dip in desktop usage over the weekend, with a corresponding rise in mobile and webmail use. However, we did see a difference in this study in weekend use – whereas we previously saw a pop in webmail use on Sunday and a dip in mobile, this time we found mobile and webmail use to be pretty consistent on both Saturday and Sunday. How Day of Week Affects Where Email is Viewed 20% 15% 5% 0% - - - - - - - Mon Tues Wed Thurs Fri Sat Sun -5% -10% -15% -20% Webmail Desktop -25% Mobile Mobile, Webmail, Desktops: Where are we viewing email now? Return Path Inc., 2011. Prediction: This pattern makes a lot of sense based on how people consume email so we don’t see this changing too much this year. But the overall growth of mobile could make for a bigger pop on weekends, with slightly less webmail use. Recommendation: As many automobile industry pundits like to say, “your mileage may vary.” A company with a heavy teen audience, for example, might see a pattern very different from this chart. Gather the campaign data specific to your audience, then design your sending strategy accordingly.

Case Study Research Study iPad Use Skyrockets In
our last study we reported a 15% increase in iPad use relative to iPhone use. The theory was that iPad use might be substituting for smartphone usage (using iPhone as the proxy for smartphones overall). This time, we decided to take a slightly different view and just look at the total number of opens for the 6-month period of this study. What we find is that the use of iPads has exploded – with an increase of 73% in email views on iPad devices between April and September of 2011. Email views on the iPad jumped by 12% between March, when the iPad 2 launched, and April, then continued the steady climb upward. Prediction: More, more, more. We think this number will just keep going up as iPads continue to proliferate. The email interface is pretty slick and definitely increases the consumption of email on the go. Recommendation: When you consider your mobile design strategy, don’t forget about tablets. While they offer a lot more options than the small screen of a smartphone, they are still different enough from a For more information, email us at rpinfo@returnpath.net or call 1-866-362-4577. © 2011 Return Path, Inc. www.returnpath.net v111811 5

Case Study Research Study desktop
or webmail environment to require some thought. Testing your designs on all the platforms that matter to your audience is key to success. Outlook is King of the Desktop Outlook has remained King of installed software for use on the desktop at 63% of email opens, with no change in the desktop landscape since our last study. Apple Mail remains the only software platform even close to Outlook with about 31% of the viewership. The next closest is Thunderbird and AOL Desktop with about 3% of email views each. Email Desktop Access: Outlook is King Thunderbird Lotus Notes 3% .34% AOL Desktop All Other 3% Pla orms .04% Apple Mail 31% Outlook Family 63% Mobile, Webmail, Desktops: Where are we viewing email now? Return Path Inc., 2011. Prediction: This trend is not changing. Outlook will continue to dominate with Apple keeping a share as long as sales of their computers remain at current levels.

Case Study Research Study Recommendation:
Unless you have reason to believe that you have a heavy penetration in an alternate platform (for example, Lotus Notes does still have some penetration in financial services companies) you can pretty much ignore everything except Outlook and Apple Mail. But Outlook, with its many versions and variations, will offer you enough challenges anyway. Where Email is Read by Industry For this study, we took a look at the data broken out by a few key vertical segments. The surprise here is that we don’t see very much difference in viewership patterns by industry versus the overall average. A few exceptions were finance and shopping, which showed more webmail views; entertainment and social networking which showed slightly higher mobile views; and software and automotive which saw slightly higher desktop views. Webmail Views by Industry 60% 50% 40% 42% 49% 48% 45% 39% 39% 35% 37% 30% 33% 20% 10% 0% Business Entertainment Finance Publishing So ware Automo ve Shopping Social Travel Networking The do ed line indicates the average webmail views across all industries Mobile, Webmail, Desktops: Where are we viewing email now?

Case Study Research Study The Smart Marketer’s Checklist: 1.
Email is everywhere you want your message to be: The clear message of this study is that email use is not declining as consumers gain access to more devices that encourage email consumption. People are now relying on getting email in more places and on more devices than ever before. 2. The medium is the medium: You know how anyone born after 1981 looks at you funny when you talk about cable vs. broadcast (“It’s just TV!”)? Well pretty soon the same will be said for trying to differentiate between mobile and email. Yes, text messages are different, but the proliferation of smartphones means that SMS isn’t the only way to message on the go. Today’s users are “always on” when it comes to email – and they expect you to be too. 3. Data is more valuable than guesses: Trying to manage your marketing strategy based on hunches is rarely a recipe for success. You need data to make informed decisions – and not just the kind of market share data that you can find in benchmark reports like this one. You need to know where and how your audience accesses your email and other content. Depending on the demographics that you are targeting, your penetration of mobile usage could be dramatically different than what you see in industry reports. 4. Don’t discount the desk: As exciting as mobile devices are, plenty of people spend long stretches of their day at an office or in a cubicle, interacting with email through Outlook or on webmail platforms. Don’t get so enamored with your on-the-go strategies that you forget the people who are behind-the-desk. It’s important to know your audience and how, where and when they interact with your messages. 5. Change is the new status quo: Think about this – when the iPad launched it was ridiculed in the tech press as silly, unnecessary and unlikely to be interesting to consumers. A year later Apple has sold millions of them and they are changing how and where consumers interact with both email and the web. Two years from now we could be talking about yet another new platform or device that hasn’t even been imagined yet. Like the Boy Scout motto – Be Prepared – and plan for change.

Case Study Research Study
Methodology Return Path studied data from its Campaign Insight tool which tracks which platforms and email software programs subscribers use to read email. For this study we examined data from April 2011 through September 2011 from more than 200 different clients using the Campaign Insight tool. In total, the study examined more than 400 million data points. For charts 1-4, we compared data from the 90 clients included in our first version of this study to those same 90 clients now. For the fifth chart, email views by industry, which is new data for this study, we looked at a subset of the 200 clients who currently use Campaign Insight who fit into the categories reported.
