marketing tips, following the right rules and procedures. Email marketing is a
form of commercial communication with business prospects by use of email. Email
Marketing Campaigns will be effective if such tips below are followed and
considered when sending out emails to your subscribers.
1)
Test
the Email Subject Line
When crafting the subject line,
try to create as many subject lines as possible and test them with some
subscribers on your list. Analyze, monitor and evaluate to pick out the most
promising subject line according to most responses and reactions.
2)
Personalize
the Subject Line of the Email
For emails you are about to
send, it’s a good email marketing tip to personalize the subject line by
including the recipient ’s name or even his or her location in it. (Subject line) This portrays
a feeling that you are talking to that one person at that time.
3)
Always
Say the Truth and Deliver
Always say the truth and it
shall set you free. Always deliver according to what is in your subject line
and email body content. If it is a link to a post or product or site, let it be
portrayed in the subject line and email body.
4)
Avoid
Use of Spammy Words and Phrases.
Use of spammy words in the
subject line can be of harm to your email marketing campaign. It is because
mail servers and clients scan subject lines and email content to detect spam. I
am tipping you off with words such as free, win, money, etc that may halt your
email marketing process. So it should be avoided. More about spamming in email
marketing read the CAN SPAM ACT OF 2003.
5)
Build a
Relationship with your Email List
When I talk of Killer tips
unearthed for email marketing, I mean; creating a connection with your email
list through conversations, strategies, tips, offer and freebies. Try as much
as you can to communicate with recipient to know their behavior and history
that will help you send out that targeted campaign to them.
6)
Indicate
Sender’s Name and Location
The CAN-SPAM ACTOF 2003 indicates that the email marketer must provide full details of his
or her name, company name, telephone, postal and physical address. In case of
anything, the recipient will have to refer to any of the email marketer’s
contact information. It is good email marketing practice to indicate your
details because it creates trust and credibility for the sender.
7)
Keep
the Subject Line of the Emails Short
This is a tip in everything
that we publish, submit or send via the web and so it applies to email
marketing. Craft the subject line in a way that your message you are airing out
is in the first 50 characters or else it will be cut off and loss of meaning.
Remember also to keep the subject line clear, brief, precise and articulate.
8)
Keep
Track of your Email Results
For any campaign or survey or
exercise that is carried out, monitoring its progress and outcomes becomes part
and parcel of it. Tracking your email results is a necessary tip that will open
successful email marketing by monitoring, analyzing, evaluating delivery rates,
click through rates, open rates and conversion rates. This also helps the email
marketer to plan effectively.
Email marketing will bear fruit
if that commercial communication to business prospects is respected with such Killer
tips. Not even a huge email list will do well for you if the concept in the
tips above is not adhered to for a successful email marketing campaign. That’s
it for now, feel free to Add-on, comment and criticize where possible. Thank
