EMAIL MARKETING
Email marketing is basically the use of email to promote products or services (Ward, 2018) . In marketing, company’s use email marketing to try and develop relationships with their customers both potential and existing. A positive for email marketing is to keep a company’s customers well informed about their newest products and services and even releases of the latest discounted sales promotions. It also allows a business to tailor their marketing messages to their customers (Ward, 2018) . To be honest I don’t like how some companies, especially the ones I am not interested in miraculously find their messages in my inbox. However, company’s like Amazon, eBay, Nike, Finishline always send me relevant emails that is beneficial to me. As a loyal customer to the said companies, they keep me notified of what discounts, deals, and promotions that I would be interested in.
IT IS STILL RELEVANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Today, we live in an age where there is an increasing amount of usage of social media platforms (Ward, 2018) . We know that businesses jump on the social media train for advertising purposes. Email marketing though has much more power than social media WHY???? :
- · 94% of Internet users use email, while only 61% use social media
- · 75% of adult online users say that email marketing is their preferred marketing method
- · The "opt-in" feature of email allows marketing by consent
- · Email marketing allows targeting by demographics (age, income, etc.)
- · Email messages have a much wider range of formatting possibilities than social media messages
- · Email offers more reporting and analytics capability, such as click-through rates, open rates, bounce rates, and conversions.
