Many organizations have leveraged email marketing to achieve great success. Ponder this –how many emails do you receive daily from businesses trying to sell their products and services? Let’s do a deeper dive into email marketing:
Email marketing involves sending educative and informative messages, advertisements, business request and valuable information to existing and potential clients with the purpose of informing recipients about your business, stay top of mind and convince them to buy your products or pay for your services. Email marketing is a very effective digital marketing strategy if you do it right.
Organizations that understand the impact and importance of email marketing actively use it to not only inform and educate their prospects but also to convince them to pay for their products and services.
Imagine that you want to buy a new cell phone or tablet but need to do some research. Coincidentally you check your email that day and you find a mail from Amazon. The email has a list of electronic devices including the device you covet, with all the details you needed and the cost of the device. Amazon includes their contact details and an e-commerce website link to directly pay for the device. If the price is within budget and the product is exactly what you wanted, would you go ahead to buy? It’s more than likely that you would. This is exactly how email marketing works.
Let’s explore 5 ways email marketing helps businesses, startups and organizations:
