It offers a huge amount of versatility from marketing your business and your offering, to building trust with your audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But with an insane amount of emails being sent everyday, how do you ensure your brand is being seen amongst the noise? Well in this blog, we share our top seven <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tips for email marketing<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to help improve your open rate and click-through rate and ultimately bring your business success.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Our top 7 <\/b><b>tips for email marketing<\/b><\/h2>\n<h3><b>1. Make your emails personalised<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">effective email marketing tips<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> we can give you is personalisation. Consumers want to feel valued and they don\u2019t want to receive robotic responses from the organisations with whom they do business with.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result, the traditional email automation process &#8211; which can appear overly robotic &#8211; must adapt. Not only should you demonstrate your knowledge in your emails, but also your personality and your passions. If you create a sense of connection for customers who read your emails, it will assist them in developing trust in both you and your brand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, you can employ automation and artificial intelligence (AI) to develop tailored emails that resonate with your consumers. For example, collect data from your customers and analyse their interests and preferences to send them more targeted emails that speak directly to their wants and needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>2. Increase the interactivity of emails<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By making your emails more interactive, you can increase customer engagement. Your email\u2019s interactive parts don\u2019t necessarily have to be sophisticated. They can take the form of clear, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fifteendesign.co.uk\/blog\/5-cta-best-practices-to-increase-your-click-through-rate\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">clickable call-to-action (CTA) buttons<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, polls and surveys, brief quizzes, and carousels that highlight products or services for example.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With that in mind, you might want to consider the current state of your welcome emails or your order confirmation emails that you send to users. Ask yourself, \u2018are there any changes that I can add to make them less robotic and more interactive?\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3. Consider using AI to optimise your campaigns<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As previously mentioned in our first tip, using AI in your email strategy can help you analyse consumer behaviours and streamline your email marketing efforts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bear in mind that if your consumers take the time to open your email, the content must be worthwhile; otherwise, they may delete it and not open the next one you send, and potentially even unsubscribe from your list. Therefore it is critical to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fifteendesign.co.uk\/blog\/why-you-should-be-conducting-audience-research\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">understand your customers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> needs before sending them another email. To simplify this process, you might want to consider outsourcing it to a CRM system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, by evaluating your consumer buying behaviours and interests, platforms such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ongage.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ongage<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can optimise email sending times, identify a more appropriate angle for your emails\u2019 subject line and content, and ultimately increase open rates and sales conversions. You can learn more about how to increase your email marketing conversions in our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fifteendesign.co.uk\/blog\/how-to-increase-conversions-for-email-marketing-campaigns\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">blog<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>4. Include user-generated content in your emails<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">User-generated content (UGC) refers to any type of content created by your users with your goods and services. When consumers shop online, they rarely get to view or experience things in person before purchasing. Therefore the feedback of other consumers has such an impact on their purchasing decision. According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/explodingtopics.com\/blog\/online-review-stats\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exploding Topics<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, around 93% of consumers are swayed by other users\u2019 reviews.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You may just enhance consumer trust in your product and brand by incorporating UGC into your emails. And the best part about this type of content is that it\u2019s completely free. Therefore, try to integrate customer reviews, poll results, and images of people using your product or service in your emails.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also collect additional customer content by promoting your offering across your social media channels. Many people would be happy to see their reviews and content shared publicly by a brand (once you\u2019ve been granted permission by the creator of course).<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>5. Be considerate to others privacy<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nowadays, customers are more concerned with their privacy and the way their data is handled. And with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ico.org.uk\/for-organisations\/uk-gdpr-guidance-and-resources\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GDPR regulations<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> firmly in place, it\u2019s extremely important that you\u2019re complying with these in your email marketing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should regularly monitor GDPR legislation and ensure that you are adhereing to it. Additionally, you must advise customers of any changes to data privacy policies and how you intend to protect their information. This will almost certainly boost your audience&#8217;s faith in your business.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>6. Prioritise engagement<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The majority of marketers approach email marketing with a specific short-term objective in mind \u2013 to increase sales. And that makes sense; after all, the fundamental objective of your email is more than likely to boost sales. However, this is the opposite of what you should be doing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should maintain a strong emphasis on building a relationship with your audience. More often than not, people join your email list to learn more about your business, not to purchase things from you. Remember, that engagement is critical to achieving long-term success with your email marketing.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>7. Remember to always adapt<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Email marketing has evolved substantially over the years and continues to do so. What may have worked in the past may no longer work now or in the future. And it\u2019s important to always keep this in mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That is why most email marketers believe that the only way to succeed is through continued education. However, they overlook the importance of unlearning what doesn\u2019t work. If you want to convert your subscribers into consumers, be sure to keep an eye out for what isn\u2019t working and avoid making common mistakes &#8211; like sending an email that is no longer engaging to your audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Let us help with your email marketing<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We hope our above top <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tips for email marketing<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> will help you when you\u2019re preparing your next email campaign.
