Most email marketing agencies will tell you your open rates are great. That is because open rates are easy to inflate and impossible to deposit in a bank account. Revenue per subscriber is the only email metric that matters.

Open rates are a vanity metric. A 40% open rate on a campaign that produces zero sales is not a success — it is a failure dressed in nice clothes. A 20% open rate on a properly segmented send that generates $8K in revenue is a win. The distinction matters because most email agencies optimize for the metric that looks good in reports rather than the metric that grows your business.

Greenville NC brands sit on untapped email revenue. The pattern is familiar: a welcome email, an abandoned cart flow from two years ago, and sporadic campaigns sent to the full list. Revenue from email sits at 10-15% of total when it should be 30-40%. Same Klaviyo platform. Same tools. Different strategy and execution.
