Why
use e-mail marketing?
E-mail is a versatile, flexible
channel for direct marketing promotions at a fraction of the cost of traditional mailing.
It lets you create and distribute visual messaging which will
present your company in a professional manner.
View responses as they happen!
E-mail marketing allows you
to see the actions your prospects take as soon as they
view your message. This intelligence is invaluable to your
business and can help you change parts of your website or communication
process to increase response and encourage order placement or enquiry form
completion.
-
See who
opens your email - automatically alert your sales team
-
Determine
the most responsive subject line
-
See which
links in your email are clicked more than others
-
Identify
specific web pages visited, in what order and when
-
See who
opens your enquiry or order form after visiting a specific web page
-
And
importantly, if they take action or stop in their tracks!

Trackable e-mail marketing should be seen as an essential part of a multi-channel marketing
strategy. Using techniques such behavioural targeting to drive both
message content and personalisation mean that you can easily test to see
what works best, plus build accurate profiles in terms of
demonstrated interest.
Despite prospects filling in
forms to tell you where their interests lie - which often isn't necessarily the
complete truth - by analysing the web pages they actually visit you can derive
the insight you need!

The whole e-mail process should be seen
as one of continued refinement where each new e-shot is viewed as a
'contender' and designed to out-perform the previous 'champion' in terms of response.
You can generate
sales leads, improve prospect interaction and support your sales team in making
the best use of their valuable selling time.
