2. Segment Your Audience: Split your audience into random, equal groups to ensure that the test results are statistically significant.
3. Create Variations: Develop two versions of the email with the variable you want to test.
4. Send the Emails: Distribute the emails to your segmented audience.
5. Measure Results: After a predefined period, measure the performance of each version using metrics like open rate, click-through rate, and conversion rate.
6. Analyze and Implement: Analyze the results to determine the winning version and implement the changes in your future campaigns.
