Nowadays, there are various methods to position your brand. One that stands out for its effectiveness is email marketing campaigns, as it allows you to take actions in design and implementation that generate better returns on investment. That's why we invite you to stay until the end to resolve all your doubts about how to do it effectively.

1. List Segmentation

To connect with your audience, it is essential to know the people you are targeting, to understand how to address them and what needs your brand can solve.

This is achieved through audience segmentation. You can classify your customers based on their age, gender, geographic location, job position, origin, salary range, purchase history, or any other information you can gather about them.

This process requires careful attention and follow-up, so it's preferable to use automated tools for segmentation.

2. A/B Testing

The use of A/B testing is a must in email marketing campaigns. There's no better tool to help you understand which elements are working and which need improvement.

A/B testing involves conducting an experiment where the audience is divided into groups, and each group receives the same information but with slight variations, such as different images, information layout, text colors, among others. The objective is to measure the reactions and determine which version has a better effect.

3. Personalization

Having a well-segmented audience allows you to know the profiles you are targeting in detail, enabling you to offer highly personalized products and/or services.

The target audience will feel that what you offer is designed for them, addressing specific aspects of their lives. Personalization allows you to design content that will ultimately achieve that desired engagement.

4. Integration with Website

Your website should be the cornerstone of your digital marketing strategy, containing all the information about your company and elements that persuade potential customers to choose your offer over the competition.

Therefore, it's essential to integrate all website forms with your email marketing contact lists. This way, you can create automated campaigns that keep your brand in the minds of those who have used the website forms.

5. Use of Metrics and Reports

To achieve your goals, you need to know if the actions you are taking are effective or if they require any adjustments. Metrics and reports are the best way to do this.

They provide detailed analysis of each transaction, offering specific data on click rates, conversions, profits, unsubscribes, and much more.

6. Send only to contacts with permission

It's tempting to use services that send mass emails, but this practice can be counterproductive for your brand in the long run. These companies obtain emails without the owners' authorization, a practice known as "spam marketing" or intrusive email, and should not be confused with a legitimate "email marketing campaign."

Spam marketing is penalized by both email service providers (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo Mail, etc.) and the receiving companies' mail servers, and it may even be subject to legal penalties by the authorities.

Unsolicited emails or spam messages are intrusive and do not respect people's privacy. Instead of attracting potential and existing customers, spam marketing can drive them away.

Building a database of customers interested in receiving informative emails takes more time, but each registered customer represents real potential for future purchases and is worth much more than 300,000 possibilities of being penalized.

7.  Call to Action

Every email sent to your audience should include a compelling call to action that encourages them to take specific actions, such as completing a form, reading a blog article, or downloading a document. However, the call to action should be well-crafted, so it doesn't feel like an imposition. It should be relevant and make people feel like they are part of your growth.
