Best Time to Send an Email Blast

Hi HubSpot Community,

When is the best time to send out an email outreach?

Is it ideal to send one on a weekend?

Hi @MariaDP ,

Great question!

Based on several industry reports, blog post,s and best practices, the ideal time to send an email blast depends on your audience and campaign goals, but here are some general insights:

Weekdays (especially Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday) tend to see higher open and engagement rates compared to Mondays or Fridays.
Mid-morning (around 10 AM) and early afternoon (1–3 PM) are commonly recommended times when recipients are more likely to check their inbox.
Weekends may work for B2C audiences, but generally result in lower open rates, especially for B2B outreach.

Hi @MariaDP,

Before I share tips and resources: The answer to this question depends on your products/services and target group. Just as an example, if you're in B2B, then workday times will make sense. If you're addressing a B2C audience, weekends might work better.

HubSpot has compiled best practices about email send times here: https://blog.hubspot.com/marketing/best-time-to-send-email

Similar posts can be found by other email tools:

If you want one, single answer, then it would be Tuesday, 10 am. It consistently performs well in studies as the most engaged weekday for email opens and clicks. It also aligns with when most people are settled into their workday and are checking emails before deep work begins.

Best regards
