Whether you send just one e-mail a month, one a week, or one a day to your list, email marketing is one of the easiest ways to let the folks on your list know what you are up to, and how they can benefit. Here are a few of the reasons you need to become an expert on leveraging this powerful marketing tool:
Low Cost: Email marketing is one of the lowest cost marketing vehicles around, especially compared to advertising, and its proven to be far more effective.
Unlimited Reach: You can reach thousands, even millions of people through the internet as you build your database. And you can reach out and touch people any where in the world – as long as they have a computer!
High Speed: You can contact your entire data base almost instantly once you decide what message you want them to hear.
Low Effort: You can stay ‘top of mind’ for thousands of clients by writing a very simple message in a short amount of time, for very little (if any) outgoing cost.
Rejection Free: Let’s face it – when you sell and market face to face, you risk the Ego blow of someone telling you they don’t want or like your stuff. Ugh. With email, if someone decides they don’t want to do business with your, they simply unsubscribe. And unless you take a look at every single person who drops off your list – you won’t have to face the awkward feeling of saying good-bye.
I’m sure you can see how powerful email can be. But do you know how to make sure you are using it properly?
