+ Don’t email too often
= Monitor your unsubcribe rate closely and put yourself in your customers shoes, what’s the right frequency for them?

+ Keep your list healthy
= If subscribers aren’t opening your emails, reach out to them with a more attention grabbing email. If that doesn’t work it might be time to stop emailing them. A healthy list is an engaged list.
