by Jessica TrambleyEmail Marketing Tips

Let’s cut right to the chase. What’s in is out and what’s out is in! 

Recent studies reveal that businesses are ramping up their investments in email campaigns. In fact, 73% of marketers consider email a critical part of their overall strategy (source: DMA National Client Email Report).

But here’s the kicker: the benefits go far beyond just being “in” with the trends.  

Research suggests that the average return on investment (ROI) for email marketing is a WHOPPING $42 for every dollar spent (source: Campaign Monitor).

Sound like music to your ears? Here are some tips that will help your business thrive in this ever-changing digital landscape. 

  1. Segment Your Email Lists: Divide your email lists into relevant segments based on factors such as industry, job title, company size, or previous interactions. This enables you to tailor your messages and offers to specific groups, increasing the chances of engagement and conversion.
  2. Personalize Your Emails: Use personalization techniques to make your emails feel more personalized and relevant to each recipient. Include their name in the email, customize the content based on their preferences or past interactions, and consider using dynamic content blocks to further personalize the message.
  3. Craft Compelling Subject Lines: The subject line is crucial in grabbing the attention of your recipients and encouraging them to open your email. Make it concise, compelling, and relevant. Consider using personalized subject lines or incorporating numbers, questions, or emojis. 
  4. Provide Valuable Content: Deliver high-quality and VALUABLE content that educates, informs, or solves a problem for your B2B audience. Share industry insights, whitepapers, case studies, or exclusive resources that can help them in their business endeavors. Position yourself as a trusted advisor or expert in your field.
  5. Call-to-Action (CTA): Clearly define the action you want your recipients to take and include a strong CTA in your emails. Make it prominent, concise, and compelling. Whether it’s downloading a resource, scheduling a demo, or requesting more information, ensure that the CTA is easy to understand and takes recipients directly to the desired landing page.
  6. Mobile Optimization: With the increasing use of smartphones and tablets, it’s essential to optimize your emails for mobile devices. Ensure that your emails are mobile-friendly, responsive, and display correctly across different screen sizes. Consider shorter paragraphs, larger fonts, and clear, tappable CTAs for better mobile user experience.
  7. A/B Testing: Experiment with different elements of your email campaigns to understand what works best for your audience. Test different subject lines, email designs, CTAs, or even sending times to determine what generates higher open rates, click-through rates, and conversions. Continuously refine your email marketing strategy based on the insights gained from A/B testing.
  8. Monitor and Analyze Results: Regularly track and analyze the performance of your B2B email campaigns. Monitor metrics such as open rates, click-through rates, conversion rates, and unsubscribe rates to evaluate the effectiveness of your campaigns. Use this data to refine your email marketing strategy, improve engagement, and optimize your future campaigns.
