| Email Marketing for the Holiday Season |
|
Based on your business or organization type here are some creative ways you can incorporate Email Marketing into your holiday communications plan.
Business to Business: In the B2B world it's more about making a personal connection and showing gratitude than closing the sale.
Send a customized/personalized holiday e-card - An easy, effective & affordable way to connect with your database. You can include a photo of your staff, a note or a short story that helps to build a connection at the same time as you express the sentiments of the season.
Send an email invitation - Planning a holiday get-together for your customers? Invite them with an email invitation. You can also use email to send confirmations or updates in addition to paper invitations.
Make a charitable donation - You can tell them about it in a holiday-themed email card.

Networking Tip: Top 10 'Keep in Touch' marketing tips |
 Top 10 keep in touch marketing tips:
1) Follow Up - Follow up promptly after meetings. Let people know that it was nice to meet them & that you enjoyed learning about their business. Thank them for their time.
2) Stay in touch with notes and cards to prospects at regular intervals - frequently - at least 4-6 times a year.
3) Send unexpected cards. There's a lot of power in sending a card to someone just to let them know you were thinking about them.
4) The Attitude of Gratitude. Thank customers when they buy from you. Thank those who give you referrals. Thank people who give generously of their time and effort. Say thanks when people give you their time for an appointment. Thank the media when they do a story on you. And say thank you when someone gives you really exceptional service.
5) Re-ignite relationships. If you haven't heard from a customer in a while, let them know that you miss them and are interested in how they are doing and if you can help.

| Success Stories |
"Have you thought about sending a newsletter to your clients but don't know how to go about it?
I would like to recommend eXtra Contact. They make it so easy. I pay a small monthly fee to have this service plus the cost of Dave's time, leaving me with time to do my business and not have to learn yet another program. He's reliable, patient and very helpful with putting the newsletter together. I can even track how many people read the newsletter and if anyone opts out.
Don't waste valuable working time trying to do this yourself. Contact Dave and start a newsletter or email campaign today."
