Email Use 2017 – US report
Ryan Dietzen | Marketing Insights & Operations (MIO)
Research conducted by:
© 2017 Adobe Systems Incorporated. All Rights Reserved. Adobe Confidential.
What: An online survey with panel participants
Who: White-collar participants own a smart phone
When: Data collected from July 10 to July 17, 2017
Where: Results are shown for US only (n=1,007)
Trending: Slides that have the note below in the bottom right were tested against last waves data for significant
changes, the arrows denote a significant change. Slides that have this note but no arrows mean there were no
differences.
Statistical testing: Statistical differences are shown at the 95% confidence level.
Note: Data was weighted to match the proportion of technology industry workers from last wave.
As Internet panel sample was used for this study, the sample was not drawn from the population using probability sampling; thus, a margin of error is not reported (margin of error
accounts for sampling error). If the data had been collected using a probability sampling method, the margin of error would be +/- 3.1%, 19 times out of 20. Given this sampling
approach, the outcomes of the statistical tests reported reflect results as if performed on data collected using probability sampling.
Methodology

 Significantly higher than 2016
 Significantly lower than 2016

• Most respondents check their work and personal email at least every few hours, which they feel is as often as they
should. That said, fewer respondents are checking their work and personal email than last year.
▬ Fewer respondents are checking their email while still in bed (with younger respondents most likely to do so), while
more are waiting until they get to the office (particularly older individuals).
▬ Fewer respondents are checking emails while on vacation, while on the phone, while walking, while working out, and
while at formal ceremonies.
• Smartphones continue to be the most commonly used device for checking emails, although computers are the
preferred device for checking work email. In addition, the rate of checking emails on tablets has gone down since
2016.
• 82% of work emails and 60% of personal emails are opened. Of those, 83% of work emails and 64% of personal
emails are read.
• Most respondents expect their email use (both personal and work) to remain the same over the next two years.
• Respondents most likely feel indifference when checking their work or personal email. Additionally, half get to
“inbox-zero” which is most likely to make them feel relieved.
Summary of Results
Adobe Marketing Insights & Operations (MIO)
Email Usage
© 2017 Adobe Systems Incorporated. All Rights Reserved. Adobe Confidential.
• Email, face-to-face conversations, and phone calls are the most used communication methods (to communicate with
colleagues).
▬ Respondents mentioned that both email and face-to-face conversations are preferred, however over half mentioned that
email is their company’s primary communication tool.
• Although still second to email, preference for face-to-face conversations with colleagues has increased over the past
year.
• For quick questions for a colleague, respondents are split as to their preferred communication method: nearly equal
amounts are likely to use email, phone, or a face-to-face conversation.
• For many different types of work discussions, email and face-to-face conversations are considered the most
appropriate communication methods.
▬ In general, face-to-face communication becomes more appropriate as the nature of the topic becomes more serious.
Summary of Results
Adobe Marketing Insights & Operations (MIO)
Work Communication in General
© 2017 Adobe Systems Incorporated. All Rights Reserved. Adobe Confidential.
• Spam filters and mobile viewing have improved respondent’s email experiences the most over the last few years.
• Instant messaging, followed by email and video conferencing, are seen as the communication methods that have
innovated the most over the past five years.
• 61% of respondents would like to be contacted by brands through email. However, their stated preference is for
marketing emails that are less about promotions, and more about providing information.
▬ That said, when it comes to the purchase process, marketing emails provide two-fifths of respondents (females in
particular) with an added incentive to purchase.
• Just over a quarter of work and personal email offers are interesting enough to open.
• When reading emails from brands on a smartphone, respondents would like emails to be better optimized for mobile,
not have to wait for images to load, minimize the need to scroll, and use appropriate fonts.
• The most annoying thing about receiving email offers is getting emailed too often. Indeed, few respondents mentioned
that they would like to receive daily emails from their bank, favorite retail brand, restaurant, or telecom provider.
• Regardless of age group or gender, customization of emails from brands is of medium to high importance.
▬ The most common frustration related to personalization is recommendations that do not match respondent interests.

and those 35 or older being the most likely to spend one hour or less. This may be driven by a

Frequency of checking work email before work
Adobe Marketing Insights & Operations (MIO)
 Part of the reason that respondents are checking their email less is that fewer are checking their email while still in bed (with
younger respondents be most likely to check while in bed), and more (particularly older individuals) waiting until they get to
the office to check email.

Adobe Consumer Email Survey Report 2017

  • 1. © 2017 Adobe Systems Incorporated. All Rights Reserved. Adobe Confidential. Email Use 2017 – US report Ryan Dietzen | Marketing Insights & Operations (MIO) Research conducted by:
  • 2. © 2017 Adobe Systems Incorporated. All Rights Reserved. Adobe Confidential. What: An online survey with panel participants Who: White-collar participants own a smart phone When: Data collected from July 10 to July 17, 2017 Where: Results are shown for US only (n=1,007) Trending: Slides that have the note below in the bottom right were tested against last waves data for significant changes, the arrows denote a significant change. Slides that have this note but no arrows mean there were no differences. Statistical testing: Statistical differences are shown at the 95% confidence level. Note: Data was weighted to match the proportion of technology industry workers from last wave. As Internet panel sample was used for this study, the sample was not drawn from the population using probability sampling; thus, a margin of error is not reported (margin of error accounts for sampling error). If the data had been collected using a probability sampling method, the margin of error would be +/- 3.1%, 19 times out of 20. Given this sampling approach, the outcomes of the statistical tests reported reflect results as if performed on data collected using probability sampling. Methodology Adobe Marketing Insights & Operations (MIO)  Significantly higher than 2016  Significantly lower than 2016
  • 3. © 2017 Adobe Systems Incorporated. All Rights Reserved. Adobe Confidential. • Most respondents check their work and personal email at least every few hours, which they feel is as often as they should. That said, fewer respondents are checking their work and personal email than last year. ▬ Fewer respondents are checking their email while still in bed (with younger respondents most likely to do so), while more are waiting until they get to the office (particularly older individuals). ▬ Fewer respondents are checking emails while on vacation, while on the phone, while walking, while working out, and while at formal ceremonies. • Smartphones continue to be the most commonly used device for checking emails, although computers are the preferred device for checking work email. In addition, the rate of checking emails on tablets has gone down since 2016. • 82% of work emails and 60% of personal emails are opened. Of those, 83% of work emails and 64% of personal emails are read. • Most respondents expect their email use (both personal and work) to remain the same over the next two years. • Respondents most likely feel indifference when checking their work or personal email. Additionally, half get to “inbox-zero” which is most likely to make them feel relieved. Summary of Results Adobe Marketing Insights & Operations (MIO) Email Usage
  • 4. © 2017 Adobe Systems Incorporated. All Rights Reserved. Adobe Confidential. • Email, face-to-face conversations, and phone calls are the most used communication methods (to communicate with colleagues). ▬ Respondents mentioned that both email and face-to-face conversations are preferred, however over half mentioned that email is their company’s primary communication tool. • Although still second to email, preference for face-to-face conversations with colleagues has increased over the past year. • For quick questions for a colleague, respondents are split as to their preferred communication method: nearly equal amounts are likely to use email, phone, or a face-to-face conversation. • For many different types of work discussions, email and face-to-face conversations are considered the most appropriate communication methods. ▬ In general, face-to-face communication becomes more appropriate as the nature of the topic becomes more serious. Summary of Results Adobe Marketing Insights & Operations (MIO) Work Communication in General
  • 5. © 2017 Adobe Systems Incorporated. All Rights Reserved. Adobe Confidential. • Spam filters and mobile viewing have improved respondent’s email experiences the most over the last few years. • Instant messaging, followed by email and video conferencing, are seen as the communication methods that have innovated the most over the past five years. • 61% of respondents would like to be contacted by brands through email. However, their stated preference is for marketing emails that are less about promotions, and more about providing information. ▬ That said, when it comes to the purchase process, marketing emails provide two-fifths of respondents (females in particular) with an added incentive to purchase. • Just over a quarter of work and personal email offers are interesting enough to open. • When reading emails from brands on a smartphone, respondents would like emails to be better optimized for mobile, not have to wait for images to load, minimize the need to scroll, and use appropriate fonts. • The most annoying thing about receiving email offers is getting emailed too often. Indeed, few respondents mentioned that they would like to receive daily emails from their bank, favorite retail brand, restaurant, or telecom provider. • Regardless of age group or gender, customization of emails from brands is of medium to high importance. ▬ The most common frustration related to personalization is recommendations that do not match respondent interests.

  • 12. © 2017 Adobe Systems Incorporated. All Rights Reserved. Adobe Confidential. Frequency of checking work email before work Adobe Marketing Insights & Operations (MIO)  Part of the reason that respondents are checking their email less is that fewer are checking their email while still in bed (with younger respondents be most likely to check while in bed), and more (particularly older individuals) waiting until they get to the office to check email. 26% 37% 11% 26% I check my email while still in bed I check email as I'm getting ready, eating breakfast or having coffee I check my email as I'm about to leave the house or on my commute into the office I don't check email until I get into the office Length of time before checking email after you wake up on a work day Base: All respondents (1,007) q5 -- It's a workday, and you've just woken up.
