 | Your Oldest Red You've Managed To Turn Into A Green?Im quite proud of myself - Iv just managed to turn an old red who signed up in July into a pending! I sent out an email to all reds the other day telling them about the new Credit Expert offer. In the past all my email campaigns have been a waste of time but I guess it goes to show that persistence pays off! (**Hopefully he turns green and I haven't just jinxed myself**) What are your experiences with this? Do you normally give up on reds past a certain point? |

 | I've give up on emailing them as it seems pointless and never works for me, which is obviously different in your case. I tend to find if they don't complete an offer within the first 1-2 weeks then they rarely ever do. Saying that I have had reds over a year old going green so it does happen, but only once or twice. Oh and well done on converting it! Hope it goes green for you

 | I also give up on them! If they don't complete within a week chances are they never will. Saying that I have also had 1 or 2 go green 6+ months later! At the moment though I've had 70 reds and 3 pendings/greens since the 24th Jan and counting  So my plan is to send the an email (probably use Mailchimp) at the end of this week-ish and see if it helps convert any more!

| I've just sent out an email to 134 Kudos reds. They're the reds I've had in Janurary this year. Hopefully it'll convert a few so long as the emails get through. Hopefully the Merge tags and non-spam type writing will help with that. I'll keep you updated... Campaign started at 16:00pm today.

| I've had a few go green after emailing them a month or so later, I'm not sure if my emails go straight to junk though, is there any way of ensuring that they don't? |

| No, I'm using Mailchimp! Gotta be careful with them though, they start going on about subscribers to mailing lists and you shouldn't email the reds in the way that we do etc... I got my last account banned by them! This one is still going strong after the last campaign though! A whole 10% of the sent emails were opened that time   Hopefully this one will be better after 24 hours!
