Return Path said the Send Time optimization tool increased read-rates by as much as 25 percent during beta tests but noted it is only available to Salesforce Marketing Cloud users, as it is part of its new partnership with AudiencePoint.

The subject line optimizer compares subject line copy against marketing emails from thousands of brands and industries to determine which subject lines drive more engagement.

Also included in Return Path’s updated Email Optimization Suite is an Executive Scorecard that compares email success rates against competitors, customizable dashboards, and email certification for the following email service providers: AOL, Cisco, Orange and Vade Retro.
