When to Send Drip Emails That Will Be Opened

by | Oct 13, 2025

Every hiring manager should develop a small group of permission-based prospects (< 200 prospects for most hiring managers) to whom they consistently send relevant, value-filled drip emails.

But these emails are only helpful if they’re opened and read by your prospects.

According to best-selling author Sabri Suby, WHEN you send emails has a measurable effect on your engagement rates.

Here are the best days/times based on Sabri’s research in priority order:

Day of the Week

Top 10 Day/Time Combinations

Tuesday @ 10am | Thursday @ 8pm | Wednesday @ 2pm | Tuesday @ 6 am | Thursday @ 10am | Wednesday @ 8pm |Tuesday @ 2pm | Thursday @ 6am | Wednesday @ 10am| Tuesday @ 8pm

Of course, the most important factor that drives engagement is your relationship with the prospect and the value you’re providing in your emails.

But if you’re excelling in this regard, why not send your emails when your prospects are most likely to engage?

Attention to detail helps win the day.
