Email newsletters – the most successful marketing tool
According to their recent report (a survey conducted of 300 professionals in June 2015) by Ascend2, a research team specialising in digital marketing, 48 % of survey respondents, said that email marketing was the most effective form of marketing to generate leads. The 48% of respondents who found email marketing to be most effective were the largest group, making email marketing the most popular answer to this part of the survey.
It isn’t easy to write a great newsletter
18% of respondents to the above found that even though email newsletters were the most effective marketing tool, they were also the most difficult to execute well.
Why is it so difficult to write a good email newsletter? Well to begin with, a good email newsletter needs to stand out from the crowd. There are, according to Mashable.com, 144.8 billion emails sent each day worldwide. That is a very big pond for your newsletter fish to become a big fish in. Your newsletter email really needs to ‘pop’ – look professional, complement your website and branding, be engaging and draw the client toward your products and/or services.
This is something that we can do to save you some time and get results – create a newsletter that will stand out and stand up to critical perusal by your clients.
Emails are the best way to re-engage your clients
Email marketing firm Listrak has identified that 63% of people on a marketing list or database of clients are inactive. They can be on the client list but not engaged with the list or the company or firm.
Given the positive response that professionals have given to the above survey in relation to the success of marketing with email newsletters, the conclusion can be drawn that marketing newsletters have the strongest draw to encourage clients to re-engage and get back to an involved and business generating relationship.
