Email marketing is one of the oldest forms of digital marketing, and it’s also still among the most effective. Email is a great way to build brand awareness, encourage brand loyalty, generate and nurture leads, and of course, sell products. It’s an extremely powerful tool in every marketer’s arsenal.
As a business owner, you have to consider every opportunity to promote your brand. While social media is a fantastic platform for reaching new audiences, there’s no doubt that email remains the most reliable way to connect with potential customers. Email gives you the power to reach people who already have a connection with your company, which can be much easier than trying to break through a crowded news feed or searching for a specific product.
The most important thing to remember when developing an email campaign is that it should be highly relevant and targeted. Knowing your buyer persona/s and what pain points they are dealing with will help you craft messages that resonate.
A well-written subject line will also help grab attention and motivate readers to click through to learn more about what you have to offer.
Many businesses that have an established relationship with their audience will create a regular newsletter to provide valuable content on a consistent basis. This helps them establish credibility as experts in their field and builds trust with the audience. The more trust that is established, the more likely someone will be to buy from you in the future.
Another benefit of building an engaged email list is that it allows you to target your marketing efforts to specific segments of your audience. Personalization strategies such as addressing someone by their name, delivering content that matches their interests and needs, and segmenting emails based on demographics and past interactions can dramatically increase email open rates, click-through rates, and conversions.
When you use email to promote your products and services, it’s crucial that you have a clear call-to-action and a landing page that speaks directly to the message of your email. A compelling call-to-action can encourage your audience to take the next step in their buyer’s journey, bringing them closer to making a purchase.
When it comes to email marketing, there is no such thing as one-size-fits-all. By leveraging the latest tools and strategies, you can customize your email marketing program to meet the needs of each unique audience. This can include using automated and drip campaigns, personalization, segmentation, and analytics to optimize your email marketing program.

Check out my recent post on sales funnels and what I think about them. Are they still worth it?
My entrepreneurial journey started in my mid 20s. I was in graduate school at the time, but I was determined to find a way to start my own online business.
Since that time, I have invested around $50,000 on courses and high-level coaching programs to develop my skills, learn how to sell and market online, and fill in all the gaps that were preventing me from being successful in running an online business.
I created Do The List as a way to take what all I’ve learned and help entrepreneurs build a larger following, market and sell their products and services, and more effectively use the online space for their business or brand.
