Marketing with email has been around as long as the Internet. Although some spam filters have been able to remove unwanted messages from going into an individual's inbox, when e-mail marketing is done right, it is helpful for the recipient and the sender. Use this article to find strategies that will help with your email marketing campaign.
Never send out emails that are unsolicited. If marketing materials are sent out to individuals who didn't request them, they could mark these massages as spam. This hurts your reputation, and if there are too many complaints about your messages, you may get your IP address blocked.
You can use A/B testing to improve the results of your emails' subject lines. Pick one email message, divide up your mailing list in two and send them out with the different subject lines. This lets you know which subject lines are successful and which need some work.
Always obtain permission before you contact your customers via email. Most people just delete email that they have not requested. Sending mass emails may also break the rules set forth by your ISP, if you do not have customer permission first.
Don't send out emails without getting the permission of the person you're sending it to. If your emails are considered spam, you won't be taken seriously. You could lose customers and get reported for sending unwanted emails.
In order to ensure that every single customer on your list has given their permission for you to email them, you should have customers opt-in to your list twice before you send the first email. This may appear like an unnecessary extra feature, but this can, in fact, ensure that only those who sign up who are genuinely interested and this eliminates trouble for your company.
Limit your email communications to once a week. Your customers often will get several messages a day and are very busy in their lives. If you send too many emails, people will skip over them, and you won't reap the benefit of your hard work.
Make sure your emails contain your company logo and features your brand name prominently. For that reason, you should take the time to design a template that allows you to incorporate your company logo, colors and any special fonts also featured on your site or other marketing materials. This will make your emails unique and instantly recognizable. While e-mail marketing is effective, there may be problems you come across. Some business may have trouble collecting a bunch of email addresses. Others aren't sure how to create emails to send to their email list. If you use the tips here, your business can overcome many of the typical issues. Apply yourself and the knowledge you've learned from these tips and learn from your mistakes.
