Innovative Email Strategies You Need to Try
Email is one of the most valuable tools to connect with your highest-value audiences
— whether you’re a freelance writer, digital marketer, or startup founder. It’s the
best way to reach and engage your most-responsive clients, customers, and fans in
a personalized, consistent, and value-driven way. Despite the rise of instant
messaging and social media, email newsletters continue to be a popular and
effective communication tool for all types of brands.
When you combine email marketing best practices with newer trends in the space,
like AI and interactive designs, you can create engaging emails that boost
engagement and conversion rates. By doing so, you’ll help your newsletters stand
out from the competition and drive results that help you achieve your business
goals.
A compelling call-to-action (CTA) is a key element of any successful email campaign.
It helps guide users towards the desired actions that support your business
objectives, and improves overall email performance by reducing friction. Ensure your
CTAs are visible, easily clicked, and aligned with the message of the newsletter.
Segmentation and personalization are critical email marketing best practices that
enable you to deliver targeted, relevant content that resonates with your audience.
They also help you build stronger relationships and increase conversions, helping
you grow your subscriber list and achieve your business goals.
Incorporating behavioural triggers in your email automation workflows can transform
newsletters from generic announcements to highly engaging communications. For
example, if someone new signs up for your newsletter, you can automatically send
them a welcome email to thank them. Or, if a long-time customer hasn’t made any
purchases in a while, you can trigger an automated ‘we miss you’ email to
encourage them to return to your website.
A plain-text version of your newsletter increases accessibility, serves as a fallback
for clients that don’t support HTML, and can help prevent spam filters from blocking
your newsletters. If you’re using a newsletter platform that automatically generates
a plain-text version, make sure to review it for readability to make sure the lines are
broken evenly and the text flows naturally.
Email providers such as Litmus offer free responsive email testing to help you
ensure your newsletters are mobile-optimized and look great on any device. This is
essential for future-proofing your campaigns, ensuring your emails remain
compatible with the latest devices and screen sizes. If your subscribers are
frustrated by having to pinch and zoom on tiny images or text, they’ll likely delete
your email — hurting your engagement and conversion rates.
