Despite the many means of communication available today to contact a customer and be able to sell a product, email marketing is still the best way to be able to approach a potential customer and start a negotiation to sell a product.
Why Email Marketing?
There are many reasons, sending an email is an economical way to start a negotiation, allows you to explain in detail the characteristics of each product and the customer is not obliged to listen, in fact, the client can decide to read the email at a later time or even ignore it.
After contacting the email marketing, it is possible to organize a meeting to finalize the sale of the product or to continue the negotiation by email, but it is essential that the email is convincing and that it pushes the customer to buy that product.
To be able to write a valid marketing email there are some handy tips, here are the main ones.
# 1: Understand the needs of the client
Knowing the needs of each customer is very important to get a valid email that can lead to a sale or a second contact.
Each customer, regardless of the sector in which he works, is unique, has his way of working and specific needs. For example, a company that sells electrical panels to industries needs industrial electrical panels, while a company that installs electrical panels for concerts requires another type of electrical panel.
In the same way, each customer can potentially be interested in the same product, but it is necessary to know the client’s situation and his needs to be able to sell the product correctly.
#2: Focus on quality
A common mistake about email marketing is to believe that the quantity of words is more effective than quality. This error is grave because a long but tedious text will be much less useful than a short and engaging version.
A text must give birth to a desire: to possess the product, and it is not possible to give birth to this need if the client is bored reading the description.
To involve the customer, it is necessary to create a short text, directed to the point, with a formatting and a professional template. In this type of marketing, the first impression is fundamental.
#3: Less is more
The email must be short and direct to the point; the customer has no time to waste and read an email that is too long and does not immediately show what the product on sale is will bore him and will be challenging to sell the product.
So a short email, following the principle “less is more.”
#4: Don’t copy
Creating original content is not easy but copying the content from other emails is terrible for any email marketing campaign. Never copy other people’s work or texts used for previous campaigns.
If you are not able to create a text or do not have time to do so, hire a good copywriter to develop original content.
#5: Interactive
Try to engage the client in doing some action at the end of the email. You can interact with forms or buttons to click to register with the product or to purchase it. Try to make the email interactive to engage the customer.
These are the five best tips to start a successful email marketing automation campaign, adapt them to any situation, and you will notice all their benefits.
