Too much choice in email marketing?

I intended to buy a rather expensive item. I researched what was available, read the brochures, and, with girded loins to protect me, I invited my chosen company to send a representative.

Preheader is important to your subscribers

It is best to assume that the default position is that everyone reads their email on a mobile.

Is ‘Buy British’ effective in email marketing?
