It varies depending on your message, what you're selling and who you're selling to. Did the people you're marketing to opt-in to your list from your website? If so, is your product/service relevant to your site? Etc. etc.
Yes I know there are some variables . But I want to compare and see if my conversion rate is good and that way I asked what the conversion ratio of people in this forum By the way i am promoting new playtech poker site to opt-in gamblers list ( As you can see my signature )
I tried it in the past and the conversion rate was high. 20%-40% I would say. I was advertising a job search engine. Now, if you want to do a bulk email method, make sure you check with your website hosting provider if it's ok for you to do that. Bulk emailing as well as some other advertising methods are now labeled "spamvertising" and your web hosting provider may not like it. Read their ToS carefully before doing spamvertising of any kind.
Thanks for the responses but I'm doing bulk emails for a long time I'm aware everything, was just asking a conversion ratio you said 20% -40% wow !! that very good I get only 5% .
Conversion ratio for Bulk mailing is less. It might start from even 0.1% and in some cases it may goes upto 4-5% max.
I would consider this spam. No one wants blasted feeds, of some random "viagra pill" or whatever. Although you`ll get the small few, clicking on what your offering, but majority will mark it as "spam".
Yes, I am using Email marketing software for sending out Emails in bulk. And the average conversion rate is 30% (one year average).
I would avoid bulk email marketing because it would be looked at as spamming. Spamming will get you fined, blacklisted and have your ISP shutdown. Its so easy to learn how to generate your own leads
Have tried that long time back, nowadays email readers have become more wise and they dont even open if there is a sales pitch in the subject, even if they opens if they find you are trying to sell something they just hit the 'delete' button
