Transcript

With access to so many digital marketing tools, email marketing may seem like an outdated method for reaching your audience. But it remains one of the most reliable ways to connect with your audience on a personal level while driving real results. 

So, how do you create a mailer that converts? 

It’s easy, all you need to do is…

1. Set goals before you start: Before you launch your campaign, set clear and specific goals using the SMART framework. This will help guide your email content, design, and strategy.
2. Make it personal: Personalisation is key to cutting through inbox clutter. Use your recipient’s first name to make the message feel more tailored and segment your email list to send your audience content based on their preferences.
3. Optimise your copy: Your subject line and preview text create the first impression for your audience. Keep them short, punchy, and clear to achieve the best results.
4. Optimise for mobile: Most people access their emails on their phones, so it’s important to ensure your messaging looks great on all screen sizes. Use larger fonts, concise copy, and buttons that are easy to tap.
5. Incorporate GIFs: Unlike videos, which can be heavy on data and may not load properly on all devices, GIFs are quick to load and easy to integrate into your email campaigns.
6. A/B test different elements: A/B testing is a valuable method for experimenting with different elements to see what resonates best with your audience. Try testing subject lines, CTAs, images, or even the email layout.
7. Use effective CTAs: Your CTAs should direct readers to take the next step. Use strong action verbs like “Shop Now” or “Download Today” to spark urgency.

Email marketing is a powerful tool, but it’s essential to use it right.
