HOw TO USE<br />

<strong>Email</strong> list growth rate is important<br />

because a healthy email marketing<br />

program needs <strong>to</strong> be continually<br />

refreshed with new names. many<br />

of the addresses on your email list<br />

will naturally “go bad” over time, as<br />

people change jobs, switch Isps or<br />

email programs, or just forget their<br />

passwords and create new accounts.<br />

According <strong>to</strong> the popular marketing<br />

resource marketingsherpa, the<br />

natural churn rate of an email list can<br />

be 25% annually or higher, which is<br />

why you must continually work <strong>to</strong> add<br />

new contacts <strong>to</strong> your email database.
