āGood communication is the bridge between confusion and clarity.” This is a well-known and rightly said quote by Nat Turner. Good communication and good customer relationships can make or break your business. However, you might be putting all that at risk by using a no-reply email.
Many businesses use no-reply emails for their email marketing campaigns. It does seem like a useful way to avoid cluttering your inboxes. But it might break the foundation on which your business stands.
No-reply emails are the email addresses that are not set up to receive incoming messages. These emails’ format looks like, ānoreply@yourwebsite.com or donotreply@domain.com.ā These emails do not allow the recipients to reply. The recipients receive a āMessage cannot be deliveredā notification in case they try to reply. Such emails are adopted by companies to avoid cluttering their mailboxes.
These emails do seem convenient to the senders. However, it acts like a brick wall between the sender and receiver as it disconnects the two-way communication.
Think of it from your customerās perspective. Which company would you rather work with the one that values your opinion or the one that does not? Obviously, the former one. Customers value businesses that value them in turn.
So, using a no-reply email might be one of the major reasons why youāre losing customers. No-reply emails can be highly misleading and lead to mistrust among your audience. In this article, we will know how a no-reply email can harm your eCommerce store.
Why No-Reply Emails Are Bad for Your Ecommerce Store?
No-reply emails can be harmful to your business in many ways. Here are the reasons how no-reply emails can adversely affect your eCommerce store:
Average Time People Spend Reading Brand Emails from 2011 to 2021
No-Reply Emails Damages the Customer Experience
No-reply emails are used to avoid receiving responses from the users. It helps businesses save time. However, it is not worth it as in this way, you are blocking two-way communication. You might be saving time or effort but youād be putting your customers and your reputation at risk.
Let me tell you something. A month ago, I received an email from a company. I found some gaps in there and tried to communicate the feedback by replying. However, the email kept on bouncing. I couldnāt understand why and at last, I got frustrated and unsubscribed from the newsletter. So, the company not only lost valuable feedback but also a subscriber. This is what happens when you use a no-reply email. You are probably missing out on hundreds and thousands of valuable feedback and subscribers.
You might direct your audience to other pages by adding your contact information. But still, at the end of the day, everyone prefers convenience. People would prefer to reply to your email rather than being redirected to other pages for submitting their feedback. So, you should always lead your customers to a responsive environment and not a dead end.

No-Reply Emails Damages Your ECommerce Store’s Email Marketing
The main point of your email marketing campaign is to build trust among your audience and strengthen your brandās reputation. No-reply emails donāt serve this purpose. Rather, they cause more harm than good.
An effective campaign aims at increasing customer engagement and receiving feedback from them. You might be ruling out the entire point if youāre using a no-reply email for your eCommerce store.
These emails can adversely affect your brandās reputation. People might start to believe that you do not value your customers and their opinions. A brandās reputation is its most prized asset and youād be endangering it if you use a no-reply email. Ā
Using no-reply emails for your email marketing is harmful to your eCommerce store in two ways. Firstly, you are disabling your customers to respond or send any feedback to you, leading to mistrust. Secondly, you are losing your brand’s reputation as people are less likely to engage with you on other channels like blogs or social media as well.
No-Reply Emails Harms Your ECommerce Store’s Email Deliverability
Your email might not even get delivered if you are using a no-reply email. Yes! You heard that right. All your efforts in writing the email, worrying about the subject lines, and crafting the perfect copy might all go to waste.
You must be thinking how does that even happen? Well, many internet service providers like Comcast or AT&T do not allow such emails to reach the clientās inboxes. At times, a personās email security settings can also send the emails to the spam folder.
No-reply emails lead to low deliverability and open rates. Since, emails are an important aspect for an eCommerce store, using no-reply emails is sure to be harmful to your business.
No-Reply Emails Can Lead Your Ecommerce Store to the Spam Folder
Daily Number of Spam Emails Sent Worldwide as of 2021 by country
If your audience doesn’t feel valued, they might send the email to the spam folder. They would not want to hear from you if you discourage two-way communication.
At times, your audience might not even have the chance to read your email before marking them as spam. Some email providers directly send no-reply emails to the spam folder. Whatās terrifying about it is that you might not even realize it, as the emails will still show as delivered. Ā
Besides, no-reply emails are harder to add to the safelist as well. Email service providers add your emails to the safelist, once your audience replies to them. Thus, no-reply emails have a far lesser chance of ending up on the safelist.
Also, getting marked as spam by many users can make you blacklisted which in turn is extremely harmful to your eCommerce store’s reputation.
No-Reply Emails Might Be Illegal
If the above-mentioned reasons are not enough for you, you should know that using a no-reply email is kind of illegal. Using a no-reply email prevents your audience from communicating with you. This indirectly violates GDPR. Global Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a set of European Union laws that sets the rules for how the companies gather and use their customers’ data.
You might be violating GDPR as one of its rules state that the customers have the right to request information regarding the data collected about them. So, if you do not give your audience the chance to communicate with you, it can get you and your eCommerce store in trouble.
If you are ever charged with this violation, you will not only suffer financially but will also lose customers’ trust in your store as well.
Conclusion
The above-mentioned reasons must be enough to conclude that no-reply emails are an absolute no-no for your business if you want to provide good customer service or maintain your brandās reputation. Customers are one of the greatest assets of a business and you must not risk it for anything. You might be saving some time and effort now but losing your brand reputation and your customers five years down the lane, wouldn’t be worth it.

If youāre considering hiring a freelancer for your business, then thereās information youāll want to know before you make your decision. Freelancers are often expensive and as a business, you always want to be cautious about how you spend money. Maybe it’s for a single project or a long-term association that you require a specific skill set. Certain situations demand people with expertise on what theyāre doing.
Regardless of the reasons to hire a freelancer, here are 10 important questions you should ask before hiring a freelancer for your business.
A question that’s often asked for interviews and for the right reasons. Itās a question that can reveal a lot about the person and his relationship with the work he does. Youāll want someone thatās interested in the work they do as this ensures their intentions and means more dedication on their part.
Asking why they do the work, also gives you a chance to know a little about the personās background if they chose to say it. Itās hard to find dedicated people in the hiring game and questions like these help you better identify the intentions of a person towards the job.
2. What Are Your Charges?
Knowing exactly what the freelancer expects will help you evaluate their potential better. Ignoring any negotiation possibilities, the freelancer will name his price and this is crucial to your budget and assessment of the personās need. Do you really need a freelancer? If so, you have to decide if it’s worth it or not.
As per a report on dazeinfo, male freelancers charge 11% extra than females. The average hourly rate are $19 and $17 for males and females respectively.
Most businesses will have a budget in mind and will have already evaluated the need for a freelancer before the hiring process. Knowing the rates per task, additional charges and any demands in terms of price are important as youāll have to avoid any chance of misunderstanding.
3. How Would You Rate Yourself?
Confident people make the difference and if youāre planning to have a freelancer work with your already established team, theyāll have to be confident. Asking someone for an evaluation of themselves is done to bring about honesty, along with a show of self-confidence.
This would also reveal information about how the freelancer thinks about his work. Does he believe heās the best at what he does or does he want to improve on his abilities? You can plan your next questions based on your assessment of the answer.
4. What Are the Timings That Youāre Available?
Asking the freelancer about his/her availability is crucial as they may have other clients waiting on them as well. Moreover, not everyone is a full-time freelancer and you might be just another client.
Knowing about the freelancerās honest availability means you can make future decisions about the project accordingly. This should also be a chance to ask the freelancer about his perspective on deadlines.
5. Would You Be Able to Work Within the Required Deadlines?
As far as the business is concerned, you need to know if the person you plan to hire can actually get the work done within the specified time. If not, ask them how long they need and see if you can work with that.
Some people donāt prefer being rushed as they like taking their own time and this may be why they got into freelancing in the first place. By confirming theyāre okay with the proposed deadlines, you make sure they are comfortable doing the assigned work.
6. What Projects Have You Worked On in the Past?
This is yet another question that gives you an insight into the freelancerās experience and interest in his field of work. Working on personal projects means being on the edge of learning and constant improvement.
As someone in charge of hiring freelancers, you should be aware of any projects the person has worked on in the past. If you find any particularly interesting ones, be sure to ask about that project in more detail.
7. How Do You Make Sure Your Clients Are Satisfied With Your Work?
A freelancer whoās been in the field for some time is bound to take care of customer satisfaction. After all, his clients are what keep him running. By asking this question youāre expecting the freelancer to explain anything he does to make sure his clients are satisfied.
Since youāll be a client yourself after you hire the freelancer, it’s good to make sure what steps are being taken to ensure a happy transaction.
8. How Do You Prefer to Communicate?
When working in a team or as part of a group, communication is important. The freelancer should be able to freely communicate between any members of a team (if one is present) or the company without any hassle.
Some prefer information to be handed to them in the form of text while others prefer hearing about it through a call. By respecting these preferences the process will be a lot smoother for both parties.
9. Any Clients I Can Contact as a Reference?
References can tell you much about the person youāre dealing with. Happy clients reflect the freelancerās work and this can only mean positive things for your business as well. You get to know more about how they handle clients and the overall experience.
Most experienced freelancers have clients whoāve hired them multiple times. Getting to know the person through his references means that you can get a better overview of the individual before you hire them.
A rather simple yet essential question, itās about giving freelancers a chance to be open and free with their questions. Anything they might want to ask about the company, the rates or deadlines will be put up before you and you can answer them accordingly.
Often people have questions regarding a project that they might not ask unless given a chance to. This way you can be sure there are no errors that might be caused due to poor communication between the client and the freelancer.
Conclusion
These questions are sure to help you develop a deep understanding of the freelancers you plan to hire but feel free to ask anything else you need to know. Once you have an idea of the kind of individual youāre dealing with, the choice is up to you. The process can seem enduring but itāll all be worth it when the results show up.
