The recent ZeroBounce Email Statistics Report for 2025 reveals fascinating insights about email habits that could help working moms optimize their time and catch the deals they care about most.

The Email Habits That Matter to Busy Moms

Let’s face it – as a working mom with kids, your time is precious. Here’s what the latest research shows about email usage:

• 93% of people use email daily (only 6% take a break when on vacation)
• 42% check their inboxes 3-5 times a day
• 64% of people primarily check email on mobile devices
• 67% prefer shorter emails (who has time for long-winded messages?)

For the 38-year-old mom with two kids and a full-time job, these stats probably sound about right. You’re likely checking email on your phone between soccer practice and dinner prep, looking for school updates, work messages, and yes – those sweet discount codes for your favorite stores.

What Makes You Open an Email?

The report found something surprising: while catchy subject lines matter, they’re only the second reason people open emails. The number one reason? Consistent content quality. In fact, 46% of survey participants said they open emails from brands that consistently send relevant content.

Translation: You’re more likely to open an email from a company that consistently delivers value specific to you as a busy mom.

Why You Unsubscribe (And How Brands Can Do Better)

The top reason people hit unsubscribe? Too many emails (43%). As a time-strapped mom, your inbox real estate is valuable. Brands bombarding you with daily messages probably won’t last long on your list.

Another key finding: 41% of respondents check email specifically looking for discounts. For working moms on a budget, this makes perfect sense – you want deals on everything from kids’ clothes to household essentials.

Mobile Is Queen for Busy Moms

With 64% of people checking email primarily on mobile devices, it’s clear that the days of sitting down at a desktop to sort through messages are long gone. You’re likely scanning your inbox while waiting in the school pickup line or during your lunch break.
