seeing a lot of people turn off their pop up or never consider using one in the first place.
I have seen data scientists on large brands conduct an insane amount testing on the short and long term effects of pop up vs none, and the answer unfortunately is
it depends.
Increasingly seeing more brands, whom don't want to discount, reflect their current subscription or bundle offer on to the pop up.
A bit of a bait and switch, but essenitally lifts the discounts you achieve from subscribing or bundling and throwing that on your pop up.
The numbers look big, and it is a bit of white lie/gently deceiving, but accomplishes
high opt-in rate doesn't hurt CVR.
Still accomplishes a reduction in CAC for those getting entered into the welcome flow who opted in but never bought, and preserves margins by not adding on additional discounting.
We have dedicated internally a great deal of time and energy in to pop-up and offer testing, as it is one of the biggest determinants in email performance.
More subs -> more people seeing emails -> more money
if your agency isn't actively testing your pop-up offer, you need a new one.
