Hi, i've been sending emails for a week or two with one of my customer lists, i'm using convertkit and writing emails with Bing Copilot to make my life easier taking inspiration from other businesses that sell the same things that i do and those emails look very similar to those but my emails get over 55% average open rate and only 1.2% CTR. i've been trying to figure out what i could be doing wrong but i cant find a reason why my CTR is this low, here's an example of one of my emails:

Hey {{ subscriber.first_name }}

And after this i usually put a countdown timer.
 
Check the below things.
1) Ensure that your email list is relevant to the content you’re promoting.
2) Verify that any JavaScript or countdown timers are not affecting your click rates. We've observed cases where customer scripts, particularly JavaScript, can conflict with the functionality of href tags, potentially impacting clicks.

Welcome to BHW.

Good luck :)
 
High open rate and low click rate means that you have a great email subject.

Email subject: Make sure that your email subject is related to your email body and target audience and NOT just a click bait.

Email body: Make sure that your list is targeted, maybe the email body is not converting readers to clickers, or the offer is not attractive.

I’m interested in investing in your SMS sender, can you tell me more about it. Also it isn’t a SMTP2SMS sender is it? had bad experiences with those in the past
 
In most cases, the text written by neural networks is very primitive. It resembles the text written by the cheapest copywriters and to achieve

If you observe a low click-through rate, it means that your welcome message is not interesting, sounds banal and does not hit the main psychological triggers.

Most of the time when we do mailing for our clients through mails, we try to use infoprompts.

When something important happens in the world that touches people's emotions, we try to adapt it for our clients. As a result, we have a very high open rate, even for a cold audience.

One example of such a headline could be “How to protect your savings during the next pandemic?” or “10 ways to get ahead of the financial crisis” or “What skill will help you get out of the crisis with profit?” or “How to instill love in a child?”.

These are just a few of the options and you must test different headlines and not miss the moment one of them comes in to exploit and recycle them further.

You must have a relevant base, understand the pains of your potential customers, try to get to them in the subject line and solve at least part of that problem in the body of the email, only then make an offer with a good call to action.
 
The curious thing is, when I ask AI about this email marketing, conversionrates, also how much subscribers form an email list will buy my prduct (example) then AI tells me that the days are gone of conversinrates of 8-10% and is low nowadays at 3-5% ? I don't know if the AI is correct or is doing hallucinaiton ?
 
The audience you are targeting, check if they are the ones that really needs your product
 
Your open rate is solid, so focus on the click. Use just one strong CTA instead of many, make it curiosity-driven and test different button text instead of links. Adding a short story or real example before the offer also gives people a reason to click it.
