And worse yet, some of them will unsubscribe or even hit the \u201cspam\u201d button if they don\u2019t really recognize your name.<\/p>\n

So what you need to do is upload a set of anywhere from five to twelve (or more) evergreen messages that your subscribers will start receiving just as soon as they join your list.<\/p>\n
