After search engine optimisation (SEO) i.e. being found in Google, email marketing is the second-most effective way to generate enquiries or sales. A recent survey by McKinsey & Co. states email is nearly 40 times more effective than Facebook and Twitter combined.
So if you’re not doing it (or you only do it once or twice a year), you need to lift your game! If you need more convincing, here is a list of reasons why you should be sending emails regularly to your customers.
- Compared to old-fashioned print newsletters, an email newsletter offers tremendous ‘bang for your buck’ when communicating directly with your customers. You save on time, printing and mailing costs.
- An email newsletter enhances your company’s reputation and increases lead generation.
- Unlike offline advertising methods, an email newsletter system provides real-time trackable engagement metrics, like open rate, click %, and unsubscribe rates.
- When you insert links to your site in your email, your readers can easily and immediately be sent to important relevant information on your website.
- An email newsletter campaign increases the lifetime value of your clients. Regular contact via email newsletters is a great way to stay ‘top of mind’, and they are more likely to buy from you again.
- Our system quickly identifies undelivered emails so you can correct them and resend them immediately. It also handles duplicates and unsubscribe requests automatically.
