All bounces are not equal

Jargon can be a problem for those engaged in email marketing. All you want to do is to increase the size of your email lists but it sometimes seems that you need a dictionary beside you all the time. Terminology can be confusing especially if it uses familiar words to describe events where they have … READ MORE »

Do as you are told

Any top ten list of what should be in a direct marketing email will include a call to action, that is a click through to the offer. It will be on any top two list as well. It is the whole reason for the email. But don’t just call: demand. No matter how cool people … READ MORE »

It’s free!

It has been accepted wisdom for some years that one of the words to avoid, if you want to get your emails delivered, is ‘FREE!!!!’ This has been largely accepted to include ‘free’ but this may well be a step too far. Spam filters are fluid. They are tested every minute of every day by … READ MORE »

Mean, median and best

Much of the information that your email marketing software needs to be effective is logical and rather obvious. For instance, the database will naturally contain the full purchasing history of all your clients on your various lists. If you are selling printers then you will be able to work out the average time between purchase … READ MORE »

Oddly World Cup

The football World Cup is a bandwagon that you might feel is nearly full.

You might be able to understand why the shop’s sales staff … READ MORE »

All in-house

An in-house email list has a major advantage over a bought in one: it gives a much higher return. This is due in the main to two factors, the first being that, with the use of email marketing software, any campaign can be targeted and secondly, you start with a relationship right from the beginning. … READ MORE »

Customer lifecycling

My grandmother would say of anyone who called themselves a customer relationship manager (CRM): ‘You want to watch that one.’ A suitably vague condemnation for a suitable vague title you might think. The post is all about retaining customers and realising their potential, a vital role in any company. For those engaged in direct email … READ MORE »

Get the measure of newsletters

A newsletter seems to go against the basic tenets of good business. You must make the content worthwhile so it will have intrinsic value and here you are, giving it away free of charge. The only justification for the investment of time, effort and money is a reasonable return. So how can you prove it … READ MORE »
