14. Why use Email Marketing?
• It’s less expensive than other types of traditional
marketing. (saves you $$)
• You can create a relationship with your target
market. (not just a business)
• You set yourself up as an “Authority” in your
type of business – you become their ____
person. (when they think of your product/service
they think of you)
• Use it to send traffic to your website & boost the
effectiveness of your traditional marketing.
15. Who Do I Send Them To?
• Put a sign up form on your website.
• Ask your customers for their email addresses
and sign them up (remember to ask for their
permission)
• Tell customers to forward your emails to their
friends and family so they can sign up for your
newsletters.
16. What do I put in the emails?
• Do not make it just business. People deal with
People, not a business.
• It shouldn’t be a novel
• What’s in it for THEM? (Don’t be me, me, me)
• Always give a call to action
• Give links to your social media and website
17. Companies You Can Use
Aweber.com
Great if you have a website and do not want
someone to add a sign up form for you.
They require that your contacts verify by replying to an email
They do not offer as many templates for emails
The web form templates are great but you still need a little technical know-how
to put them on your website.
