How To Fix Overlapping Subscribers Mailerlite

by

MailerLite is a popular email marketing platform that allows businesses to create and send newsletters, campaigns, and other types of emails to their subscribers. However, sometimes it can be difficult to manage your subscriber list and prevent overlapping subscribers from receiving the same email multiple times.

What are Overlapping Subscribers?

Overlapping subscribers occur when a single email address is added to multiple lists within MailerLite. This can happen accidentally or intentionally, but either way it can lead to confusion and frustration for both the sender and the recipient.

How to Prevent Overlapping Subscribers

  • Create separate lists for different types of subscribers. For example, you could have a list for newsletter subscribers, another for blog updates, and another for product announcements.
  • Use double opt-in to confirm that the email address is correct and that the user wants to receive emails from your business.
  • Regularly review your subscriber list to identify any overlapping addresses and remove them as needed.

How to Remove Overlapping Subscribers

If you already have overlapping subscribers in your MailerLite account, don’t worry! You can easily remove them by following these steps:

  1. Log in to your MailerLite account and go to the “Subscribers” tab.
  2. Click on the list that contains the overlapping subscribers.
  3. Scroll through the list until you find the email address(es) that are causing the overlap. You can use the search bar to make this easier.
  4. Once you have identified the overlapping subscribers, click on the “Remove” button next to their name(s).
  5. Confirm that you want to remove the subscriber(s) and they will be removed from your list.

Conclusion

Overlapping subscribers can be a frustrating issue for email marketers, but with a little bit of planning and attention to detail, it’s easy to prevent and remove them from your MailerLite account. By following the tips outlined in this article, you can ensure that your emails are reaching the right people at the right time, without any unnecessary overlap.
