E-mail Marketing Tips

 

Question: how do I get someone to give me their email address? 

  

The answer is to have a value add, give something to get something. In order for someone to give you their email address, there has to be something in it for them and you need to build a little trust.   Whether you are running  a contest, have an e-book available for the client to download or coupons for attractions, the client needs something of value. 

 

Always ensure that you are using a trustworthy email software program such as Mail Chimp, Exact Target, Constant Contact, Campaign Monitor etc. 

 

We are all inundated with mass amounts of email every day so ensure each email sent has relevance. Use the subject line properly - if you can personalize the subject line.  Never include a large amount of images and only make one offer per email.

Best of luck in your next targeted email campaign!
