Stop Email List Decay: Turn “Goodbye” Emails into “Hello” to Your Next Subscriber

The Problem: Email list decay is a costly reality for B2B companies. With over 20% of employees changing jobs annually, your pool of potential buyers dries up—costing you sales every single month.
Our Solution: Role Relay ensures you retain the role even when the contact is gone. We intelligently scan out-of-office replies to identify the successor.
The Benefit: Stop subscriber churn and turn attrition into growth. Automatically replace lost contacts with successors to maintain—and often increase—your list size.

Key Benefits of RoleRelay.email

 

Business Impact

What You Gain

Always‑fresh contact data
Captures successor names, titles, and emails the moment a job‑change autoreply fires, so your list stays current without manual research.
Lower bounce rates
Retires invalid addresses before the next send, cutting hard bounces that drag down deliverability and inflate ESP costs.
Protects sender reputation Fewer bounces and higher engagement signal ISPs to keep you in the inbox, safeguarding your sender score and domain health.
Expanded reach
Harvests extra personal and role‑based addresses (e.g., info@, team@) from autoreplies, giving you new, opt‑in‑eligible prospects.
Timely re‑routing of offers
When a contact is on vacation, surfaces alternate recipients so critical promotions or industry updates still land with a human who can act.
Segmentation fuel
Tags contacts by status (new hire, on leave, departed) so you can trigger targeted nurture flows instead of one‑size‑fits‑all blasts.
Revenue preservation
Auto-updates your list with new contacts on job changes, ensuring churn never eats into your revenue.
Lower ESP cost
In B2B lists, 8-12 % of contacts are out of office at any given time. Most providers bill on total sends. Paying to deliver 10 % extra emails that can’t convert wastes budget and may bump you into a higher pricing tier.
Compliance & data hygiene
Automates removals on “left company” notices, lowering the risk of mailing dormant or reassigned corporate addresses that turn into spam traps.
Operational efficiency
Replaces hours of list maintenance with real‑time parsing, freeing marketers to focus on content and campaigns.
Actionable analytics
Logs job‑change trends across your audience, letting sales teams time outreach when decision‑makers are newly in seat and budgets are flexible.

Bottom line: the Role Relay email parser turns hidden out‑of‑office auto-replies into a live data feed that boosts deliverability, widens your audience, and directly safeguards revenue—all while reducing manual workload.
