If your email marketing is generating flat results, the problem might not be your timing, design, or subject lines, it could be what’s inside: generic product content that fails to connect.
Generic product emails, where the same content goes to everyone, are still common. But here’s what many ecommerce marketers don’t see: they silently undercut customer relationships, and often sabotage long-term retention.
If your emails still rely on manually selected, one-size-fits-all product content, you’re likely facing these challenges:
Poor click-through rates lead to fewer conversions.
When emails fail to capture interest, revenue slips through the cracks.
Manual product selection is time-consuming and inefficient.
Your team spends hours curating product blocks, only to guess what might work.
Performance is inconsistent and unpredictable.
Some campaigns get clicks, most don’t — because static content can’t adapt to shopper behavior.
Every subscriber sees the same content, and engagement suffers.
Generic emails lack relevance, so they get ignored, skipped, or worse, deleted.
It doesn’t scale.
As your customer base grows, managing product content manually becomes unsustainable and increasingly complex.
Irrelevant content drives unsubscribes.
Repeatedly showing products people don’t care about pushes them away from your brand.
The biggest mistake?
You’re pushing the products you want customers to see, instead of showing the products they actually want to buy.
It’s not just a content problem. It’s a relevance problem. And fixing it starts with personalization.
