Email marketing is a great way to promote products, generate interest, engage conversation, and build loyalty in your business and brand.
So what do you do? You setup a subscriber list and then hit them up with engaging emails. Easy right!
Marketing emails can fulfill several purposes for your business depending on their content. The main benefits include:
- Promoting your products or services
- Build engagement with your brand
- Driving traffic to your website
- Turning prospects into customers
- Turning one-time buyers into loyal fans
Email is a direct line of conversation with your customers, it has advantages over other forms of marketing communication.
People are more likely to see an email in their inbox than an algorithm manipulated social media post, which may not appear in the feeds of prospective customers and followers.
You can also separate your subscribers and make different lists depending on their needs or desires.
TYPES OF EMAIL MARKETING
1. Newsletters - sent on a regular basis providing updates about your business, services, a blog you’ve written or news that’s coming.
2. Automation - this can be very helpful as you can set triggers like, welcome email, birthday emails or ‘your cart is still full’ emails.
3. Transactional emails - E.g Every time a client buys a product or service from you a thank you email is sent.
