Email Blast
An email blast is an excellent way to
continue communicating with clients, customers, potential
customers and constituents. With an email blast, you can
show off your products,
tell them about sales, tell them some of the projects you've
been working on, or just communicate helpful information
about
your field of expertise.

Database
A good
place to start your email blast is your current
database. As you meet people you can add them to your list.
It's a good idea to ask permission to send them your newsletter.
One of my old clients had a store where she
sold T-shirts and other goods. When people came into the
shop she offered to sign them up for an email newsletter.
She
has hundreds of people on her list from doing this. On a
regular basis she sent out an email telling her recipients
about
new products she had and how they could order them.
The next place to gather names for an email blast is on
your web site. If you don't have a sign up already, we can
help
you set up a sign-up on your site. When they sign up, they
will automatically be put into a database for the next time
you want to send out a blast. With this system, they
can also unsubscribe from your newsletter. This way you won't
have to add and subtract people from your list by hand.
If you have a third-party list, most legitimate email services
will not allow you to send them out without expressed permission
from the recipient. One way to use third-party lists legitimately
is to send out an invitation to join your list with a great
offer. You many get up to 25 percent of the recipients to
join your list. We have found that the people who actually
sign up for your list end up buying more than the greater
majority of people who did not sign up. And you won't get
banned by Internet Service Providers, which could affect
your daily email service if you are tagged as a spammer.
Email Blast Content
We can help you develop content for your
email blast campaign. We have talented copywriters who can
help you put together great content. These are some things
you
can put in your email:
- What's going on in your industry
- Specials and sales your company might
be offering
- Contests
- Events
- Perspective on news events
- Essays on topics that would interest
your visitors
Format
You can send your emails as HTML (looks
like a Web page) or text (doesn't have graphics). We can
design your HTML email blast with various graphics and formats.
We can even make it look like your web site with hot links
to different pages on your site. This
type of email often receives higher results and is more trackable.
Testing
We can test your email
with small groups several times with various headlines and
offers to see which one is most effective. Then we would
send out the most effective one to your larger list. It
will help
you determine the best way to communicate with your list
and then reap the results with a highly effective email
marketing
campaign. You can do this with each email you send out.
Tracking
We
will give you reports about how well your marketing went.
Our report will tell you:
- How many people received the email
- How many people opened the email
- How many of the emails were bad
- How many times your various links were
clicked on
- We can tell you who clicked on what link.
By knowing this, you can follow up with a coupon or an invitation
targeted toward the page they clicked on.
