TO DRIVE SALES? Brand exposure may also be acceptable but really isn’t it all about sales?
Now we’re in an era where true 1:1 marketing is possible. Sure, marketers are still using mass media to drive massive brand exposure but the promise of true 1:1 marketing is taking over. But here’s the rub, even though consumers now have a seemingly infinite number of channels to engage and consume media from, very few of us have 5x or 10x the budget to try and engage with individuals in today’s multi-channel world. However, the challenge we’re faced with is the following..how many of 10x the budget or resources

Can someone describe to me a very personalised communication you’ve received from a brand lately? One that you’ve connected with. One that got to you. What was in it?
Now I know you haven’t entered the corporate world yet, so you may not be familiar with this term. I’m curious to hear what your thoughts are on what it means?
Integrations can be made with many different systems and in many different ways.A typical organization technology stack will typically consist of the following buckets of data systemsCRM, Front Office, operational (point of sale, ecommerce, CRM system, customer service)Business intelligence (Web analytics, customer intelligence system possibly utilizing SPSS, SAS, or can even just be a database experts own personal computer or hard drive)Data Warehouse (All or some of this information could come together in a data warehouse, which would house and archive this information over time)Where do the integrations exist between these systems? How do they talk to one another? Where from and how does the data get into the IMH? We can integrate into any of these systems. However, it is important to note that each incremental step in data flow creates friction by adding a point of failure and spreading out the time from when data is captured to when it gets into the IMH for messaging purposes, potentially limiting timeliness of the messages themselves.
Email is a retention channel to communicate in a “spooky” yet “creepy” way. Have you ever been creeped out by an email?
Map out and demostrate the flexibility of a relational data model in scaling data on customers, and increasing the usability of that data within messaging
THE END RESULT! Amazingly simple for so much bloody work.
SO WHY DO IT?
Replace with your company’s scores. Use circles to pinpoint their weak points that play into your phased recommendations
Write out a customers business goals (this should be overall business objectives like increasing revenue, increasing leads, etc, not email specific goals like increase open rate). Then write out the current KPI’s they are using to measure success of their program. Are current KPI’s adequately measuring business objectives? If not, write out what is missing the mark.
It’s not “just a Subject Line” – it’s everythingHow many find subject line to be the last thing you think of when sending an email?I see subject line as an exciting and rewarding challenge that is always teaching you to become a better marketer and communicator. It is the easiest thing in an email to test.Curiosity:“Want to spoil yourself like an Oscar winner?” You aren't curious about things you already know.Urgency: “Read this paragraph before it’s too late!” NO – “Save $100 on every $300 you spend, 5 days only!” You can tell people to hurry all the time but when it is mixed with relevancy or value it becomes BIGGER!Relevancy: Make sure you data is current, people change so relevancy is hard, so connect with core values of your company. What do you stand for? Why do subscribers sign up in the first place? Why do your subscribers care about this?Value: The worth of the email and importance. Don’t mistake value for savings. It is more what knowledge you can provide your customers and how you can help them. Talk to your customers to find out what value they like getting from you?Emotion: ”SHOP NOW!” – ok stop screaming at me. Use excitement, happiness in your subject lines, when you feel you have exciting news use an exclamation point. Make sure your not screaming at your audience.
