“Sales” and discount promotions have always been a key tactic for retailers to try to boost sales, but with more and more retailers using email to market their wares, the typical consumer’s inbox is now regularly flooded (some would even say saturated) with “Sale Emails”. This means that email marketers need to work harder to stand out in order to get their emails opened and actually generate sales. Here are some examples of standout Sale Emails.
