E Mail Marketing

E Mail marketing can be used to support a wide range of marketing activities including prospecting for new customers, promoting special offers and events, newsletters, customer service and market research.

Planning an email marketing campaign

Successful email marketing now often uses personalisation techniques to provide information that is more relevant to an audience and relies on the concept that a company has permission to contact an audience. Both of these concepts are crucial in differentiating your email as a worthwhile offering from the mass of spam coming into an inbox.

When planning an email marketing campaign you should also consider the following:

• Which marketing activities do you want to use email to support?
• How should you build your own list or rent an effective list?
• How can you integrate email with your other marketing campaigns and activities?
• How should you obtain permission to contact an audience by email and have you considered the impact of data protection and privacy laws?
• What is the best way to design and create the actual email?
• How can you measure the effectiveness of your campaigns?
