If email is not part of your digital
marketing strategy, then you don’t have a digital marketing strategy.
Let’s consider why you should integrate email marketing into your campaigns
Email marketing is cost effective and has a great ROI
Email marketing allows business owners to
reach a large number of consumers at a rate of pennies per message. For
small-business owners on a budget, this makes it a better choice than
traditional marketing channels like TV, radio, or direct mail. It is
estimated that for every $1 spent, $44.25 is the average return on email
marketing investment (Exact Target).
Personalization
Email has the power to send one piece of
content to thousands of people and still have some level of
personalization. But that’s just the beginning, segmentation of your
contact list allows you to separate subscribers into groups based on
their title, company type, or even based on actions taken. All of these
can be send highly targeted messages.
Keep customers informed
Email marketing isn’t something companies
do just because they can and it’s easy. There are more than 3.2 billion
email accounts today, and with 90% of people checking their email
daily. Your customers are more likely to open a message from someone
they are familiar with than a random person. Use this medium to update
you customers about your latest services, products, software updates,
trends and other useful information that will keep your customers
educated, informed and happy. In the end, good communicated results in
higher customer retention.
Don’t’ forget, it is also one of the few
medium that people don’t walk away from. As opposed to social media
posts, which disappear on average 1-2 hours before they are archived,
email has to be “killed” before it is removed.
It’s easy to customize and integrate into other marketing tactics.
The versatility of email marketing is
another reason marketers should keep the tactic in their marketing
toolbox. Depending on the depth of the email database and the skill of
the crafter, email marketing messages can range from simple to very
complex. Email and social media are friends. If you’re failing to see
these potential connections, you’re probably wasting great opportunities
not only for growth but to establish cross platform initiatives.
Analytics
Email on the other hand has a set of
solid metrics that have been the standard for years: Growth, Open Rate,
Click Rate, Complaints, Unsubscribes, and you can take it from there and
even track sales and revenue.
