SUBJECT: Lesson #2 - 3 Email Marketing Mistakes... {!firstname_fix} While email marketing is a great way to stay in touch with your customers and clients, there are many common mistakes that companies make that can cause a loss in customers. Learning what not to do is as important as knowing how to optimize your email marketing plan. 1. Sending out too many emails This is the most common mistake that a company can make when it comes to email marketing. Your customers do not want to get two or three emails a week. Some companies send that many out in a day. This can lead to the customer adding your email address to their spam list. When this happens, they will have no chance to receive the emails that they may want to see. You will not get any click through activity that will increase sales if your customers are sending your emails to their spam folders automatically. 2. Sending out 'generic' emails Who wants to read a general email saying 'hi how are you doing?'.. When starting out there is a tendency to do this which is a big no-no. Every email you send out must have a purpose to it. If you're informing them, inform, if you're promoting, promote, if you're handing out a freebie, do so. Don't send an email for the sake of it because after all, these are real people at the other end who signed up for things related to what you're offering. 3. Greed I've been on lists that constantly promote day-after-day. It's tiresome and doesn't give the reader any chance to read and fully digest what you have offered the previous day. 1-2 emails a week is more than enough! These are just 3 things that come to mind what sending out emails. To get the most out of your mailing list, check out the Email Marketing Demon video series.
