Technology changes quickly and every day there seems to be a new social media tool that appears. Regardless of the ever changing technology, email marketing still remains an effective way to communicate with customers and potential customers.
The biggest problems is that every day people receive an endless stream of emails offering news updates, coupons, sales, information and more. So how can you make your email campaign stand out from all the ‘noise’ that’s in the modern day email box? Let’s look at what you need to do.
- Make sure your subject line is catchy – When you design your email campaign the very first thing you should be focused on is making sure that the recipient is actually going to open and read it, and not just hit the delete button. This means you need to create a subject line that is catchy and engaging.
- Know your market – For your email campaign to be a success you need to know who your audience is. This will set the tone and help you to connect and relate to your recipient.
- Keep your message simple – Your recipients are busy people, so they are only willing to devote a small amount of time to reading email. That means you need to keep your message clear and concise.
- Get creative – The attention span of your reader is very short. That means you need to capture their attention span by using photos, graphs, videos, or whatever it takes.
- Include your call to action – Your goal is to connect with your recipients and to ensure that they feel loyalty and a strong connection to your company, brand, etc. Make sure to include your call to action for what it is you want the recipient to do.
- Never ignore replies to your message – Some people are going to reply to your email and you should not ignore these messages. In fact, the faster you can reply the better the impression you’ll quickly establish a relationship with the recipient.
