Prospects who are ready to buy will just hit “Reply” and ask for pricing / demo. When you monitor the “reply to” mailbox, you can quickly pass them along to a Salesperson.

People will unsubscribe by replying “unsubscribe” to you. Monitoring your replies lets you remove unhappy subscribers, and reduce the chance of getting classified as a spammer. I’ve also had people alert me of problems in my campaigns’ unsubscribe mechanism by replying.
You will get improvement tips in your “reply” mailbox. Recently, someone who got our nurture emails replied with suggestions for improving the copy. Their suggestions were fantastic - they’re now incorporated into our emails.
