Wondering when to blast off that next e-mail promotion? Most e-mail marketers pick a Tuesday. Tuesday was the most popular day for sending e-mails in 2014 (17.4% of all weekly e-mails), with Thursday a close second (17.1%), according to a Who's Mailing What! review of e-mails received. Both days actually dipped slightly in popularity last year compared with 2013, when they also led e-mail blasts, but that might be attributed in part to the mid-term elections, which spiked weekend fundraising e-mails. A recent eMarketing & Commerce (eM+C) article detailed the findings of WMW! on e-mail delivery popularity by day and category. No matter the day of the week, the leading e-mail senders are Consumer Catalogs, Retail Traffic Builders and Special Interest Magazines per the WMW! categories. If you want to dodge the Tuesday and Thursday crowd, you can e-mail Wednesday, the third most popular day at 16.7% of 2014 weekly e-mails, or send your message on Monday, fourth place at 15.9% of e-mail.
