Newsletter email polls that force readers to dial up the Internet and visit a website to cast their vote do not get a high percentage of e-newsletter subscribers participation. For better results, try putting the poll within your e-newsletter. Here are some examples.
Which format do you prefer your newsletter to be in?
To answer, just click the appropriate answer, and send your email to… HTML:
poll@demo.com?subject=html TEXT:
poll@demo.com?subject=text
(Notice the use of the subject field)
If you have different surveys/polls every month, you can code this into you subject field:
Examples:
Which format do you prefer your newsletter to be in?
HTML: poll@demo.com?subject=Nov2000_html
TEXT: poll@demo.com?subject=Nov2000_text
Do you believe free ads are effective?
Yes: poll@demo.com?subject=Dec2000_Yes
No : poll@demo.com?subject=Dec2000_No
The only work required to set this up, is to create an email address you use exclusively for polls like this.
Another very professional way to do this would be to have separate email addresses for all the different answers, for example:
