I want to pause at this time to thank you for being my supportive tribe throughout my blogging journey!

  • To inspire, encourage and motivate others
  • To share ideas and my passion for writing
  • To cope with my life and its many challenges

  • To express myself and share creative writing experiences through written word

NEW BLOGGING & WRITING ENDEAVORS

In order to reach some of your blogging and writing endeavors, you have to learn various skills, such as how to market your blog content or how to publish your first book. Often times you spend hours researching, planning and writing your blog posts and/or your book. Then, you spend more time sharing your blog content or promoting your book on social media hoping that the right people see it.

What I’ve found during this year, is that it’s important for you to learn how to implement your marketing plan so the right people see your written content. In the blogging and writing industry this is a process called email marketing.

7 WAYS TO IMPROVE EMAIL MARKETING

Email marketing can be defined as the use of email to promote products or services while developing relationships with potential customers or clients. Email marketing allows you to target your audience as well as keep them informed and engaged. The two biggest advantages of email marketing are price and ease. Email marketing can also lead to increased sales and customer loyalty.

Here’s 7 ways to improve email marketing:

#1 – Select an email marketing platform. There’s a number of different email marketing platforms to choose from, such as Mailchimp or Constant Contact. However, I chose to use ConvertKit because the free version allows you to do basic email marketing functions up to 1,000 subscribers and you are given access to their free webinars.

#2 – Build your own contact list. Building your own contact list is a great way for you to find new customers, nurture leads, and increase your conversion rates. However, make it clear to your audience when they are opting in or signing up to receive these emails.

#3 – Follow the law. It’s important to adhere to the rules of the CAN-SPAM Act. These rules include having a non-deceptive subject line, providing a clear way to unsubscribe, and including your name and address at the end of the emails.

#4 – Mix up your messages. Be creative and use emails to build rapport with customers. Don’t just send out ads to buy your product or service, but provide helpful tips and insights that will provide value to your customers.

#5 – Respect your subscribers. Remember your customers have trusted you with their information. Your customers deserve respect and they love to feel special when receiving valuable products and services.

#6 – Follow a schedule. Stick to an email schedule week to week. Sending out an email on the same day every week will help your customers know what to expect from you and when. This helps to build trust and a stronger customer relationship.

#7 – Optimize for mobile use. Make sure that your emails are optimized and are able to be opened on mobile devices.

Compared to other types of marketing, email marketing is an inexpensive way to advertise your content, product or services. Also, email marketing is an effective sales driver when done correctly. When done wrong, email marketing can come across as spam that annoys customers.
