The school year might be done for the kids, but learning and testing is never done for us marketers.

We may not get grades on our marketing campaigns, but we know it’s important to consistently look for ways to improve our next iteration of them or refine currently running campaigns to drive better results for our businesses.

But, even the kiddos don’t always get the summer completely off! Some commit to summer reading lists to keep their skills sharp and be more prepared for fall classes.

Let’s take a page out of their books and create a reading list for running direct mail A/B tests so you can strengthen your skillset in this area, and be even better prepared for your next experiment.
