Small businesses with relatively low marketing budget strongly rely on email marketing or newsletter marketing as well as social media marketing to be able to get their businesses to the right audience.


Making sure your marketing emails are interesting

Your emails should be interesting. This starts with the subject line, but it also includes the headline, design and content.

Also, it is important to be personal – think of your target audience as if they were sitting in a room with you. Be yourself, and be different. You have to differentiate yourself from the other emails sitting in that inbox.

You don’t have to include everything in the email. Build anticipation by offering a brief explanation and then sending them to a landing page, blog post, product page or other destination that can give them more information.

If you are promoting an event, build anticipation by sending reminder emails or emails that prepare your prospects for the big day. Send a little bit at a time and gain their trust by offering valuable information each time.
