Webinar main points
What is email marketing about? Why is it
beneficial?
How do you start doing email-marketing?
Types of messages, how and when to apply
them correctly
So what is so good about
email marketing?
Before you start, ask yourself:
What kind of issues do you want to solve with
email marketing?
Who is your target audience? How well do you
know for what purpose they come to your site?
How can you help them?
Do you plan to generate / increase your contacts
database and how?
Email marketing allows you to:
Communicate with each customer directly and
personally
Remind your leads base of your brand, keep
them informed on all the news and updates
Wake your “dormant” clients up, sell and upsell
SPAM?
Generic message to the huge list of addresses that were
not voluntarily given by their holders.
Recipient’s email address is not in the To: or Cc: fields
The letter that contains spam triggers in the body:
pharmaceutical terms, overuse of the word “free”,
overuse of caps lock, bold font text colouring etc.
We are smarter than that!
