Thread: How about E-mail Marketing?

what do you feel about E-Mail Marketing is it good way for web marketing?

E-mail marketing is a form of direct marketing which uses electronic mail as a means of communicating commercial or fundraising messages to an audience. In its broadest sense, every e-mail sent to a potential or current customer could be considered e-mail marketing.

Advantages

E-mail marketing (on the Internet) is popular with companies for several reasons:

* An exact return on investment can be tracked ("track to basket") and has proven to be high when done properly. E-mail marketing is often reported as second only to search marketing as the most effective online marketing tactic.
* Advertisers can reach substantial numbers of e-mail subscribers who have opted in (i.e., consented) to receive e-mail communications on subjects of interest to them.
* Over half of Internet users check or send e-mail on a typical day.

E-mail marketing is not bad and even helpful when you know well your target audience and sent mailing mainly to them. But if somebody recieves an e-mail he was not waiting for - it'll be just obtrusive spam. So it is necessary to be careful with e-mail marketing, I think.

I don't think you can go wrong with OPT IN email marketing, especially if you develop your email list off your own sites. With opt in, your clients have basically asked you to send them info on something. If you overuse it, though, you'll see them opt out in droves.

Keep it relevant to your site or topic and try to make your message as personal as possible, as if you were talking to a friend you hadn't seen for a while. If you hammer a sale, your response goes way down. By all means ask for them to click your link, but make sure you've given them a good, friendly pitch and a reason to click through.

E-mail marketing is now an effective way to get good results but if you have tried everything else and have a lot of time then doing a bit more wont hurt anyone...

E-mail marketing is all beautiful and all.

But don't forget the spam issue and bounced emails and all those headaches.

It's not all flowers your know.

To me, email marketing is an useful tool, but not a powerful one.

It helps promote products to customers, and remind them about the presence of providers. But in many cases, promotion is considered as spam.

Personally, I don't like providers send many emails. I feel that they try to force me to purchase goods.

Recently, "Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream" uses Social Media to announce news instead of Email marketing. Here is the article "Ben & Jerry's Drops Email Marketing In Favor of Social Media": http://blog.hubspot.com/blog/tabid/6...ial-Media.aspx. I think this is a considerable suggestion.

Email marketing is best for increasing business. you can communicate with customers easily.

Hi)
E-mail marketing is a strong tool but it need to be used with brain and not become just spam (it happens very often today), i never use this instrument in my work.

Email marketing is still a great way to get more sales and keep in touch with your customers, but it has to be non-aggressive thing. Once your customers feel like there're being spammed, your email marketing is dead.

I have been using email marketing for the last couple year and it has proved to be one of my main affiliate channels. The rules is not to be aggressive and pushy. Give your audience something that they will thank you for - special offers and give aways.

daily...

about 20% of ROI are coming from email marketing.

I'm afraid it's no longer as good as it was before (several years ago).

Email marketing has its upside and its downside. It is an inexpensive way to reach out to a great number of potential customers. As already mentioned people view unwanted mail as spam that never gets read defeating your purpose.

To increase your chance of success you can target to existing customers; present a concise, clear, and inviting message; and time your mail-out to coincide with a holiday or time of year when your product or service is most relevant.

If you have the analytics to track how much of your mail-out is being opened and read it will help you decide if this marketing strategy works for you.

In my views E-marketing is better than traditional marketing in many ways as E-mail Campaigns cost significantly less to produce and distribute than traditional marketing and Email allows an ongoing, interactive dialogue to find out what your customers really think.

Sending mails to the appropriate companies or business people will get you revenue..It is a direct conversion of goal,if the people come back with some replies that's fine, some people don't even read it.They just ignore..It all depends on how you present them...

E-mail marketing is great if the people have opted in, but even if they have, you can still get in trouble if they ever complain

There are many things you must consider when choosing an email marketing software. First is how you built your list. Many ESPs (Email Service Providers) won't allow you to send from a purchased list. If you built your list organically, you will be fine. Second is the pricing.email sender software has been the easiest strategy to do since the emergence of the internet.

E mail is one of the internet marketing strategies used worldwide.

Email marketing has a tool called autoresponder which is like autopilot for promotions. You can send a message of the campaign on certain days after a person signs up for your newsletter. Simply create messages and delivery schedule for your answering machine and all your messages will be delivered automatically to your subscribers.

Increases your sales to new levels. Advertisers can generate repeat business automatically and it is cost effective.

I personally think that email marketing is on the way out.. Most gets filtered into your Spam box and the rest rarely gets read..
