Every few months or so, there\u2019s another \u201cin-the-know\u201d blogger announcing to the world that email is dead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Except, they\u2019re wrong. Email marketing is far from dead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, building a list of actively engaged email subscribers can be one of the most effective lead generation methods and revenue builders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But there\u2019s a catch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building an engaged <\/em>list isn\u2019t a walk in the park \u2014 many marketers lament that it is much trickier than they expected. To help you avoid the pitfalls, we\u2019re breaking down some of the most effective email marketing best practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it\u2019s all said and done, you\u2019ll see a list of loyal, engaged customers; and it will just keep growing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Generating leads and building your list<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Adding value with an email list is pretty much impossible to do if said list doesn\u2019t exist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To get started, you\u2019ll need to understand what your customer relationships are like, and tailor the following solutions to your audience in pursuit of something simple: Their email address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Passively capture emails on your existing platforms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Chances are, you already have some kind of content built for your business. This can include a website, online store, social media pages, or anything else that a potential customer might see associated with your brand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can use your existing presence as a means to start gathering email addresses in a few different ways. One powerful method is to use \u201ctriggered\u201d responses, where a customer\u2019s email address is required to do something, like place an order. Another is to offer a \u201clead magnet,\u201d something valuable like a PDF doc of info, in exchange for a user\u2019s email address. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t knock the old-fashioned newsletter sign-up<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, getting straight to the point is worthwhile. People who explicitly sign up for your email content are probably more inclined to read it, meaning that your subscriber list will show more engagement once emails go out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Including a very simple mailing list signup call-to-action on a landing page \u2014 a feature that increase leads by up to 55% \u2014 can be a great way of getting your email content front and center, while generating the intrigued audience for it at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use social media as a funnel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If somebody follows your brand on social media, there\u2019s a strong chance they\u2019ll be interested in your emails, too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Facebook knows this; you can set your business page\u2019s call to action button to a \u201cSign up for email\u201d option by default. Your social media presence can act as a springboard onto your email content for the people who are interested; in other words, exactly the kind of people you want to send emails to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using your social media tools as a funnel for emails doesn\u2019t need to be difficult. Email signup can be accomplished through landing page links on your posts, to even asking your followers to sign up directly. They\u2019re more inclined to do so than you might think!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making your list valuable to you and your subscribers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019ve cultivated a growing list of subscribers, it\u2019s time to start sending them something. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This begs the question: Send them what?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Answer: Something that\u2019s important to both you, and your subscribers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Central to customer relationship management is knowing that your customers, and potential customers, have all the power. If you\u2019re sending them something they don\u2019t care about, engagement will go down, or worse: They\u2019ll unsubscribe from you completely. That\u2019s why your email content needs to be the right thing, at the right time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, if you\u2019re selling a copywriting course for business owners, don\u2019t send them random emails about cool news articles. Send them content they WANT to receive, that you\u2019re also passionate about: stuff like, the worst subject lines you\u2019ve ever seen, or how not to write a headline. Stuff that teaches your list something new while teasing them with your product, intriguing them to buy.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Send email at the right times<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There is a lot of attention paid to timing emails in marketing circles, and understandably so. You\u2019ll typically hear advice suggesting mornings and evenings during the week, when workers wake up and check their email to start the day. However, the truth is, the best time to send your emails is when your<\/em> subscribers will open them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They might be similar to many other people, and open their email in the morning. But if you\u2019re marketing towards night shift workers, vampires, or freelancers, you might find through experimentation that your open and click through rates increase when emails are sent at a different time of day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you use Kartra<\/a> to send your emails, Kartra will actually use your real-life data and tell<\/em> you the best day of the week and time of day to send for your list to see higher conversions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Always make it worthwhile<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Email that doesn\u2019t contain anything important will either not get opened or will produce no clicks. Even worse, subscribers that continually get email with nothing they like or want inside of it will start to ignore what they get in the future, or worst of all: They\u2019ll opt out of emails entirely and report you for spam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some emails to consider are welcome emails that congratulate your new lead for joining your list, welcoming them to the family, and pointing them in the right direction for important links like customer support, your blog, your sales page, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another good email method is to take any pre-written blog posts you have and break them out into a series of soap-opera style emails, each one teaching your email list something new, and getting them excited for the next email. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Segment your subscribers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

An important step to take both during and after the list building process is segmentation. While you can do this manually, Kartra<\/a> can actually do this for you, based on automated tags for things like whether they visited a page, watched a video, purchased a product, etc. You can also segment your list in Kartra based on levels of engagement and lead scores. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you\u2019ve segmented your list into smaller, more precise groups, you can send different campaigns based on things like where they signed up and other characteristics. Send your more loyal subscribers bonus coupons, and people who watched a particular video, more content that\u2019s related that they might be interested in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Email marketing isn\u2019t dead. It\u2019s just changing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
