3. Design e-mails that catch attention

Don't be the kind of brand or company that has a clustered newsletter, even worse a boring-ly designed one! 

Your content may be top-class but if it isn't eye catching, no one's going to read it! Layout your content to be engaging, informative, and easy-to-read.

It also important to remember that you shouldn't overcrowd your newsletter. Try to use graphics or animation that support your content (but not too much).

6. Be conscious of timing

The last thing that you should be wary of is at what point of the day are you going to send the newsletter. With over 250 billion emails being sent daily, it's a likely possibility that your email will get lost in their inbox. 

Study up on which certain times and days of the week are users more active.
