Email Marketing – I want more money!

•March 9, 2009 • Leave a Comment

Email marketing has the ability to become the proximate cause of a sale, such as when someone clicks a link in your email to make a direct purchase from your website. Email marketing can also help generate activity and inquiries that can lead to increase sales, such as when someone replies to an email in order to request an appointment or additional information.

If your objective is to increase sales, you can state your broad-based objective in the following ways and craft your email content with one of the stated objectives in mind (depending on your business)

- Drive foot trafic to your store

- Bring visitors to your website

- Increase event attendance

- Ask for referrals

- Generate phone or email orders

Potentially, sales not only increase when you reach more prospective customers with your message but also when you motivate and prompt current customers to make repeat purchases.

Email marketing is a great way to make repeat purchases more convenient and efficient because you can link your audience directly to an online purchase process. Time and convenience are powerful motivators to increase the number of customers who make frequent and regular repeat purchases.

Figuring out how often to call for action in bulk email:

•February 17, 2009 • Leave a Comment

When your bulk email broadcasting campaign are always asking your audience for some type of action, chances are that the majority of your audience is not ready for action with every frequency you choose. Calling for action is a balance: some calls to action wear off if you send them too often and others won’t work unless you repeat them often enough.

You can call your audience to action with frequency:

- Design your bulk email templates for action: Create a bulk email template exclusively for urgent message while maintaining a look that is consistent with your brand. Then, reserve that template for only the most urgent messages you need to send.

- Match your calls to action with your audience: Because different people take action for different reasons, you can change your calls to action to match the reasons why different people in your audience take action.

- Match the timing of your calls to action with your audience’s behavior: Calling for action precisely when your audience is ready to take action is likely to result in the best response to your call. Because you can not tell exactly when your audience is ready to take action on every call to action, keep track of the types of behavior your audience exhibits to help you determine when you need to call for action and when you should send other types of messages.

Collecting email marketing addresses legally

•February 2, 2009 • Leave a Comment

The CAN-SPAM Act makes certain types of of email address collection illegal and requires permission from your email list subscribers before you send certain types of content. Potentially illegal email addresses collection methods are not always easy to spot, so the best practice is to make sure that you have explicit permission from everyone on your list to send them email. Here are some best practices for steering clear of potentially permission less email addresses:

Never purchase an email list from a company that allows you to keep the email addresses as a data file. Email addresses kept in a data file are easily bought and sold, and email addresses with explicit permission are too valuable to sell.

Never collect email addresses from Websites and other online directories.

Do not use an email address collection service. Unless such a service collects confirmed permission from every subscriber that it obtains.

Always includes required content in your bulk email marketing campaign:

The CAN-SPAM Act requires you to includes certain content in your emails. Include the following in your emails to stay CAN-SPAM compliant:

Provide a way for your subscribers to opt out of receiving future emails. You are required to removed anyone who unsubscribes from your email list permanently within ten days of the unsubscribe request and you can not add that person back without his explicit permission.

Make sure that your email includes your physical address.

Make sure that your email header information clearly identifies your business and does not mislead your audience in any way.

Make sure that your email “Subject” line is not misleading.

Make sure that your email clearly states that the email is solicitation.

Make sure that your email complies with any applicable guidelines for sexually oriented material.

Bulk Email Marketing Content in accordance with consumer interaction

•January 16, 2009 • Leave a Comment

Your bulk email marketing message should match how consumers tend to interact with the medium so that your audience can easily internalize and take action on your message. Consider the following comparison between using email messages to deliver a message and using a billboard to deliver a message.

Image planning to put up a billboard next to the highway where people drive by at 65 miles per hour. You are not likely to get good results if your billboard message includes two paragraphs of text along with an office phone number, cell phone number, fax number, email address, and detail directions to your office because no one driving by on the highway can internalize such a detailed message so quickly.

What email marketing message should say

•January 14, 2009 • Leave a Comment

Email is a great marketing tool, but you can not simply communicate any email message multiple times and expect the message to results in sales. Make your email marketing messages as concise as possible; people usually scan emails rather then take the time to read every word. Clear and concise messages are by far the best choice for email content, but your email messages should include the following content at a minimum:

- Your value proposition: a value proposition is a statement that tells consumers why your products or services are worth paying for.

- Information to support your value proposition.

- One or more calls to action. A call to action is a statement that asks someone to take a specific type of action in a specific way. Calling for action is important because people tend to delete emails after they read them if they are not told what to do next.
