>So we're both right!?

Indeed we are - it is however difficult to explain that to some people who may think that allowing customers to choose frequency of contact would result in drop in number of people "contactable" in period of time most desireable to that person (ie most frequent). I found that using stats that show increase in drop offs and response helps present a much more persuasive argument.

      Based on results from 1,200 email campaigns that we run for Jungle.com (and some for Argos) in 2000-2003 I have come to conclusion that ideal frequency for us (B2C IT e-tailer) was ...

        Agree largely with the post above A proviso might be the nature of your content and the liklihood that your customers/subscribers are going to want to interact with it. Just ...

      Less than once a month sounds too infrequent to me, this is likely to lower open rates as people forget about you. The 'ideal' frequency depends on how often content refreshes/i ...

      Lucy. You mention the aim of the emails is to build brand awareness and promote core products and services, These are quite seperate objectives that may not be best met simply by ...

      Interesting discussion. It critically depends on the product. For an e-tailer, more than once a month seems to work from the examples in other postings, but for B2B or B2C infre ...

          Perhaps second guess is overstating it Alex, but I say this since it bugs me that relatively few companies ask customers what they think about their e-newsletters - it is all too e ...

              Not sure if asking customers about frequency is the right thing to do for an ecommerce site - if customers are still responding to emails, it's probably OK to contact them at that ...

                I agree for an e-commerce site it is best not to ask frequency - but didn't the original poster ask about branding site? I think for branding sites there should be a choice of freq ...
