Ever notice that every email unsubscribe page looks similar? Many look like basic, generic pages that were built for the web of 1995!
This is because marketers don’t care about the unsubscribe page. Once a contact has clicked that link in the bottom of an email they are lost: never going to be a lead, a potential customer or revenue. And since marketers don’t care, email marketing software doesn’t care about unsubscribe page branding .
Communications professionals, on the other hand, understand that every touchpoint between their organization and its audience impacts perception and trust. A consistent style for communications, and a consistent experience for interactions, reinforces your credibility and ultimately strengthens your reputation. This is why it’s crucial to have complete control over all content your contacts encounter.

Generic Branding: A Hidden Risk
Many organizations find themselves constrained by the default text and styles offered by their email marketing platforms. This limitation forces their contacts to interact with generic, third-party pages that bear no resemblance to their brand. Such inconsistencies can dilute your organization’s identity and harm your image and reputation and make it seem like you don’t care.
Marketing-centric email platforms offer limited customization for elements like email signup forms, and the all-important email preferences page (often referred to as the “unsubscribe page” or “email preference center”). Using default templates with generic text and style create serious disconnects for your contacts.
