What is an E-Shot?
Email marketing is when you send messages to customers or potential customers through email. This can include things like newsletters, personal emails, and E-Shots. E-Shots are especially useful for bringing in new customers and keeping in touch with the ones you already have.
Why should you use E-Shots? Some people worry that E-Shots might make their brand look bad, like spam. But if you’re sending emails to people who are interested in your company, that won’t be a problem. Many customers prefer getting emails from brands they know.
How to send an E-Shot: Here are some simple steps to make a great E-Shot:
- #Build a List: Make a list of current customers, past customers, potential customers, and people who asked about your products. You can target different groups with different emails. For instance, send customer-related info only to customers. You can collect email addresses on your website, but remember to follow the rules about collecting data.
- Design Your E-Shot: Make your E-Shot look good and match your brand. People won’t read it if it doesn’t look nice. Make sure the info in your E-Shot is helpful to the reader. You can put links to your website, like to a blog or product page, to get more people interested.
- Subject Line: The subject line is the first thing people see. It should catch their attention and tell them what’s inside. Avoid words that sound like spam.
- Test It: Different email providers show emails differently. So, test your E-Shot to make sure it looks good for everyone.
- Make It Easy to Unsubscribe: Add an option for people to stop getting your emails. It’s required by law, and it’s good for customer trust.
- See How It’s Doing: After you send the E-Shot, you can see if people opened it, clicked on links, or unsubscribed. This helps you know what’s working.
Why use E-Shots? E-Shots bring more people to your website, so more people know about your brand and products. They’re also a low-cost way to talk to your customers. If you use them well, they can boost your sales from existing customers and bring new customers to your site.
