A Smooth Process

posted on: April 13th, 2010

An email marketing campaign doesn’t only consist of great emails being delivered periodically to your subscribers. There is far more to a search marketing campaign than that and should be considered carefully to ensure that your campaign is a success from beginning to end. If you have worked hard at creating concise, clear emails that give a precise call to action you will probably have seen an increase in orders for your products or merchandise. Before creating an email marketing campaign it is advisable to ensure that your sales follow an automated process. If a subscriber to your list orders and pays for a digital product for example, they will expect to receive a thank you email and also an email with the download link to their product. They also expect the download link to work so that they can receive their product. If this process is faulty in any way and the customer doesn’t receive their goods you will receive a barrage of complaint emails from discontented customers. If a customer makes a purchase and receives a thank you email and maybe even a free bonus for being a loyal customer, followed by the successful download of the product they have purchased you will be presented in glowing terms and your reputation is guaranteed. Employing the services of a professional company such as here at Click Consult will enable you to automate much of the process of email marketing, with complete confidence that all aspects have been thoroughly tested ensuring your success.

Steps to help you start an email marketing campaign

posted on: November 4th, 2009

Email marketing has the ability to see instant results yet, apart from increasing your sales figures, email marketing is an invaluable tool for building and maintaining relationships with loyal customers well into the future.  Yet email marketing is not being used to its fullest potential and there are easy and effective ways to start a campaign: 1.    Gather your names and email addresses and place them into an easily accessible location such as a database.  Use a database that does not require any degree of programming, yet one that you can customise and expand with your needs 2.    Create a mailing list of names of people that want you to contact them via email.  How you do this is up to you.  You can start by telephoning and asking permission to email.  Once you have compiled your list you should provide columns that are long enough to accommodate names, telephone numbers and email addresses 3.    You should be able to provide your customer list with a high degree of privacy and security 4.    Decide on whom you want to send to and what category they belong in.  To help you decide this you may need to consider what type of content they will appreciate getting from you and what content they are most likely to read.  Ask yourself how your content will help build your relationship such as newsletters, editorials or humorous writings. 5.    It is also important to consider your greeting, should it be casual, informal or highly formal. 6.    Compose your email and select your group of recipients 7.    Timing is crucial when sending your emails as most people accept and read business emails at work.  The day of the week and month is also important.
