Tips for Building Your Brand with Email Marketing
 

There are many marketing mediums you can use to build and support your brand. Your goal is to be consistent across all of them. The following tips focus specifically on building your brand with email, but you can apply them to other mediums as well.

Here's a checklist to help you build and create brand consistency with your marketing emails:

  • Include your logo on every communication, located in the same place each time
  • Use the same colors on your website home page, printed collateral, and email templates
    Embed patterns, designs, or images that appear in your website or printed collateral as backgrounds or highlights in your emails
  • Use the same fonts as you use on your website and printed collateral
Let eXtra Contact help you build your brand through professional email marketing.
Marketing Tip: Which channel is right for your business?
by Gail Watson, Regional Director, eWomen Network
 
Visit eWomen Network websiteReaching out to customers with a compelling lead generation message is crucial, but choosing the appropriate lead generation channel to carry that message is equally important.
 
Many small businesses struggle with their lead generation activities because the choices are simply overwhelming, and they don't know how to strategize.
 
Check List:
  • The right channel is as important as the right message.
  • Successful channel selection begins with a thorough understanding of your customers' interests and preferences.
  • Take time to think strategically, fine tune your message, and evaluate the pros and cons of all channels.
  • An effective channel selection strategy involves understanding objective and subjective criteria.
The long list of lead generation channels includes print media, broadcast/electronic media, display ads, direct-response advertising, PR vehicles, and word of mouth referrals.
