Evaluating my email relationships

Now that things are quiet on Thanksgiving Eve, I did something that I rarely had the chance to do, go through my email accounts.

They say that its good practice to keep a separate account for purchases. Therefore I went through said account and did some soul searching.

Last week was National Unfriend Day, so I figured that I take the approach with my “retail” email account.

I looked at all the places I subscribed to and I asked myself a few questions:

1. Am I interested in the store/retailer?
2. How often am I getting emails
3. Are the emails “of value” to me?
4. If I had an “in store” experience with them, how did it go?

How often do you go through your inbox and evaluate who’s emailing you?
