In case you haven’t been paying attention, there are two things we love here at Litmus: email and data. (Well, three things if you include Xbox FIFA.) We’ve tracked billions of opens across hundreds of thousands of campaigns in Email Analytics. If you love email and data as much as we do, you probably dig into your Email Analytics data shortly after you hit send.
