A/B Testing
A/B testing is the process of testing two or more variations of email content to determine which has the most positive result.
An example of some tests:
Test Category | Test |
---|---|
Subject | Long vs short |
Subject | Subject A vs subject B (text changes) |
Subject | Personalised vs non-personalised |
Body content | Long vs short |
Body content | Content A vs content B |
Body content | Personalised vs non-personalised |
Body content | Images vs no images |
Body content | With links vs no links |
Call to action | Call to action A vs call to action B |
Call to action | Request for sales/discovery call vs no request |
You should always be testing variations of emails to find what works best (e.g. drives the most traffic to your website or meeting request).
