Subject: Looking for a Deck Building Company to Send Phone Calls

Hi there,

Would you be the right person to talk to about referring some customers your way?

I recently built a website for one of my deck building clients but he’s kind of out of town, and it’s generating steady leads for services.

I just don’t wanna lose these leads. I know how valuable they are and I’ve got about 3 right now in and around Milwaukee. I just need to give them off to somebody for a while until I figure out what to do with the site.

So if you’re taking in more work, please let me know and I would be happy to provide you with more information and answer any questions you may have.

Analysis

Open Rate:

Sequence 1 had a slightly higher open rate (48.7%) compared to Sequence 2 (41.62%). This indicates the subject line and sender information were engaging enough for recipients to open the emails.

Click Rate:

Both sequences had a 0% click rate, which is expected since no links were included in the emails. Future campaigns might benefit from including relevant links or CTAs.

Reply Rate:

Sequence 1 had a higher reply rate (9.57%) compared to Sequence 2 (3.47%). This indicates that the email content in Sequence 1 was more engaging or relevant to the recipients.

Appointments Booked:

Sequence 1 resulted in 9 appointments booked, while Sequence 2 led to 11 bookings. This shows that the campaign successfully converted email engagements into tangible business opportunities.

Conclusion

The outreach email campaign showed potential with reasonable open and reply rates and successfully converted engagements into appointments. By refining the email content, enhancing the CTA, and implementing a follow-up strategy, we can expect even better results in future campaigns.
