EMAIL Marketing Advantages

1. Email is private
2. Email is a workhorse
3. Email is cost effective

You may think email is yesterday’s news, but just because email has been around a while, it doesn’t make it any less effective. Sure, email marketing’s shiny new cousins, social media and pay per click, attract a lot of industry buzz – but email marketing is the unsung hero of today’s digital marketing world. Don't believe me? Here are three major email marketing advantages.

Finding Native Advertising Opportunities

If your advertising efforts have been providing a low click through rate or poor return on investment, you may want to consider reviewing where those ads are being shown.

The problem could potentially be influenced within the places or the format your advertisements are displaying.

6 Ways to Increase Your Landing Page Conversion Rate

Landing pages: they're a must if you want consistently high conversion rates, yet so many sites ignore their power in favor of sending visitors to their standard home page. After all, you likely want those visitors from your email, social media, or PPC campaign to do something specific, right?

Attribution Modeling and Data-Driven Marketing

Attribution modeling is a complex topic, which is likely why most marketers favor a last non-direct click model - it's one of the simplest (and it's the standard model used for non-multi-channel funnels reports in Google Analytics). However, simple (and standard) might not be what's best for your business. It's important to consider your attribution model carefully to be sure you're making smart, data-driven marketing decisions about how to spend your budget.

What Is a Full-Service Digital Marketing Agency?

How to Make Money through Email Marketing

Adding to the bottom line is the epitome of business. Demonstrating how your work adds to it is the epitome of marketing. Sometimes marketing's positive effect on the bottom line is immediately apparent and easily tracked - e.g., an email message click through results in the direct sale of a product. Sometimes marketing's positive effect on the bottom line is indirect and delayed, making it much more difficult to track - e.g., the viewing of a social media post builds awareness about a product that later results in the sale of that product when the product is encountered again through organic search.

Why Should I Hire a Marketing Agency for My Small Business?

If you're like most small businesses today, your marketing program could be stronger. There often simply aren't enough hours in the day to accomplish everything, and marketing tends to get shoved to the back burner. After all, a good marketing program requires in-depth knowledge of traditional approaches as well as an understanding of how to do digital marketing in today's landscape - including the technology needed to implement a solution and the time it takes to do so.
