This reduces friction and makes it more likely that people will take the time to respond.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Improved Completion Rates:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Similarly, the ease of answering questions right in the email can lead to higher completion rates.
