Effective emails

Keep Them Interested

posted on: April 26th, 2010

An effective email marketing campaign should be anticipated by your subscribers and every email should be opened and read by the recipient. Of course, in real terms this will never happen in all the cases but you can perform certain actions that will give you the best results possible. Make sure that your recipient recognises the sender immediately and will then proceed to open it and read the contents. As the majority of emails are considered spam your identity being easily recognised is crucial to getting through the first stage. The next item that a recipient will look at is the subject heading, and if it is too sensational or very obviously making false claims the email is likely to be deleted. The layout of your web marketing email can either entice the recipient to read more or can have the opposite effect and stop them from reading more of your email. Some contributing factors to this are the size of the text in your email. When you use overly large email or type in capitals, it is very off-putting and can be classed as shouting. Tests have shown that there is no preference by email recipients between the use of plain text emails or HTML. Many marketers use fancy graphics in emails but these must be tested thoroughly to ensure that they can be viewed by all users. The professional services of a company such as here at Click Consult will ensure that you have an effective email marketing campaign which is carefully crafted in all aspects to achieve high opening rates.

How To Email Effectively

posted on: February 9th, 2010

One of the quickest and cheapest forms of communication is email so it shouldn't be surprising that email marketing is a popular method of Internet marketing. Email marketing is much cheaper and faster than most traditional methods of communication, such as the postal service. It is also instant, as soon as you click the send button your message is despatched. There are still problems to overcome, though. The first obstacle is building up your list of subscribers. You must have a person’s permission to email them and therefore you have to capture their name and email. To do this you could offer a newsletter or eZine which offers useful, free information in return for their name and email address. You should always ask a person to confirm that they want to receive your emails to comply with regulations and common law. Another concern is the number of emails that may not be delivered due to spam filters being in use. Spam is a nuisance to everyone but the filters will sometimes block genuine emails from being delivered. You may also have emails that bounce due to incorrect email addresses. Using a professional company such as us at Click Consult will give you access to technology which ensures the maximum percentage of emails is delivered and opened by your target audience. Making sure you have the necessary technology and the knowledge to ensure your emails are opened and actually read will maximise your return on investment immensely, whilst also gaining a loyal customer base.
