My Email to Cornbread

Hello, 

I am very excited for my order and I am happy to support what seems to clearly be a respectful and ethical company. I want to offer an observation that I believe can help the company. 

I received five emails from Cornbread within 20 minutes of placing my first order. 

I understand this is a business and you need to retain customers. I am not upset or annoyed.

However, personally, I believe five emails in a span of 18 minutes is too many emails. 

I was curious to try the product and I ordered it. I think you would have a hard time finding someone who doesn't think that is too many emails. 

I understand the goal is to make money, and I truly hope Cornbread continues to grow. I am hoping to become a happy customer myself. 

I believe the amount of emails a brand sends to customers is an indicator of its confidence in its product. I don't believe that is the reality here. But it is a strong implication. And I'm confident that is not the implication you want. Cornbread appears proud of its products.  I'm happy to see that. 

When I gave Cornbread $39.99 in exchange for a product, I believed that was the end of our interaction until I decide to order again or allow the subscribe and save to continue. 

I understand email advertising is essential for a business. But moderation is a wonderful thing. At some point the amount of emails a company sends in a short period of time can become borderline ridiculous. 

I just purchased your product. Can that be enough for now?

When the product arrives, and I like it, I will buy it again. If I don't like it, I'm not going to buy it again, no matter how many emails you send. I strongly believe Cornbread would benefit if it just considers the idea that a large percentage of your consumers feel the way I do.
