Why email still works, why most campaigns fail, and what actually drives replies today. Every few years, someone declares email marketing “dead.” And yet, email continues to outperform nearly every outbound channel when it’s done correctly. The problem isn’t email itself — it’s how most businesses use it. Email didn’t stop working. Spray-and-pray outreach did. Why Email Gets a Bad Reputation Most inboxes are flooded with messages that feel automated, irrelevant, and poorly t
