Effective email marketing campaigns

Posted on in Business News , Cycles News

design Newsletters are an incredibly popular means to engaging with consumers but on any given day our inboxes are flooded with a plethora of automated email newsletters, so how do you stand out?

An effective marketing campaign should be written to attract attention within a busy inbox. Any marketing campaign should have a unique personalised touch, imagery, a responsive design and an appropriate call-to-action.

Unique personalised touch and imagery

Any marketing newsletter needs to be personalised to the reader and engaging to look at. No one wants to read an email that is a wall of text, visuals and colours are a great way to break up text and engage with your readers.

Responsive design

Any good email marketing campaign should be designed for all devices. More and more consumers are engaging with online content and emails through their mobile devices.

Call-to-action

Without having an effective and appropriate call-to-action an email marketing campaign with engaging imagery, a personalised touch and that is designed for desktops, tablets and mobiles will not work.

With every email marketing campaign, you need to ask yourself what do you want your reader to do next?

Hubspot has created a free template for planning and tracking email marketing campaigns, click here to download it now.
