Case Study: Data Science Central achieves up to 40% open rates and 99.6% deliverability with GetResponse

How Data Science Central Achieves a Unique Open Rate of Up to 40% with GetResponse

Data Science Central is a digital media company running a fast‑growing online community for data science that targets large enterprises and a niche audience. They struggled with email performance — open rates below 12%, a high bounce rate (previous provider marked nearly 10,000 contacts as bounced), and slow subscriber growth.

They switched to GetResponse, using a dedicated IP, warm‑up process, A/B testing and simple signup forms to protect deliverability and improve targeting. Results: deliverability of 99.6% (0.4% bounce), open rates as high as 40% on Gmail, about 2,500 new subscribers per month and a contact list of roughly 140,000, with no deliverability incidents since the switch.
