Email marketing is full of pitfalls.
You've
got time constraints, a constantly changing list, bounced emails, spam
filters, not to mention the risk of being accused of being a spammer.
How do you come close to reaching the dream
of earning $50 per email sent?
Email marketing is a skill.
Have
you been experiencing any of these email marketing challenges?
Are you . . .
- unsure how to collect email addresses?
- suffering from a short list?
- suffering from a non-responsive list?
- unsure of CANSPAM legislation and how to
comply?
- unsure how to deliver email to all the
different systems?
- unsure how to track if email even is
working for you?
- unsure what to say in an email?
- worried about being called a spammer?
- short on time to craft and send an email?
- jaded, because you use it to little
effect?
If you are thinking any of these things,
read on, this may be the most important message you read all year.
Last
year I sent 1,035 different email campaigns . . . and I learned a thing
or two about what makes email work.
And for the record. I hate Spam,
with a passion.
My
name is Mitch Tarr and I am an email marketing expert. I help
companies in all industries develop a big list, create compelling email
content, and sell more stuff!
Email marketing is hard. I make it easy.
Most
Businesses Could Improve.
I've been doing email marketing since 1999.
Since that time there have been huge advances in spam
filtering and email marketing technology.
But human nature is immutable. The
things that motivate people to be loyal to your business and to buy
from you have been proven again and again.
What I do is provide rock-solid email
marketing guidance to my clients and to ensure they stick to the
knitting as it were in order to get the full advantage that email has
to offer.
I sign up for email offers all the time.
It's what I do because I like to keep current. I attend email
marketing conferences yearly to hear what the top marketers have to say.
Here's some of the mistakes I see email
marketers making--even the big dogs.
Here
are some of the common problems.
Here are some of the basic mistakes I
noticed.
- The optin form on the website didn't
work. A flat out technical error. No offers for me.
- No emails were received until a month
later. People want it now!
- There was no instant confirmation.
I often didn't know if I actually ended up on the list!
- The newsletter was too confusing.
Too many items in one email.
- I received emails that weren't relevant
to me based on my interests.
- There was no way to unsubscribe - a clear
CANSPAM violation.
- The entire content of the email was often
just, "Thank You" -- a perfect opportunity missed.
- Many emails were from info@ -- not very
personal
and the list goes on.
So that's why I created this email marketing
service.
A boutique email marketing agency for small
business...to help you do it right. And I created it as a service so
you didn't have to do it yourself. We look after it all for you so you
can focus on what you do well.
Here's what we do.
- We help you build your list.
- We guarantee double optin so you aren't
accused of being a spammer.
- We ensure unsubscribes are respected.
- We plot your promotion schedule.
- We make sure you are CANSPAM compliant
- We create visually stunning emails that
can be read by all recipient like Aol, Yahoo, Hotmail, Gmail, Microsoft
Outlook and Macintosh.
- We match up to your existing marketing
programs
- We make sure your emails are delivered
over 98% of the time.
- We can drive traffic to your web pages.
- We presell a product launch.
- We help clear an inventory item for you.
- We can promote an event - like a
festival.
- We provide promotional ideas and
creative.
- We send people to your trade show booth.
- We make sure you get an email out
monthly.
In other words -- we do it all. What you do
is provide the direction and approvals and get better results.
You
have questions?
I don't have a list. How do I build one?
There are entire books and websites
dedicated to list building. What we do is work with you on building
your list as fast as possible. We use all means available and
work within your budget. We'll also examine three areas that
most businesses overlook.
You'll have a list to work with in no time.
Who writes the email content?
We have some world class copywriters working
on our team. You'll be working with someone that can help you
get your email 'voice' just right. What is right for a winery
isn't right for a speaker manufacturer.
You'll find our writers can write for your
industry AND more importantly they can write compelling copy that
motivates people to ACT!
What's an autoresponder and why do I need one?
You've seen an autoresponder if you've ever
received an "I'm out of the office until Wednesday next week" message.
Our autoresponders are much more sophisticated than that.
We set email autoresponders for 7 key applications with the
most important being the first 7.
You've heard the old marketing expression,
"It takes 7 contacts to make an impression." This is even
more true in email.
You'd be amazed at how many businesses blast
away promotional offers to people who sign up without doing any
relationship building.
How do I track open rates and effectiveness?
We track 7 key metrics after every email
blast. We communicate these stats back to you so you can see
which messages are having the most impact. You'll never be
out of the loop on how your email campaigns are doing.
We'll also supply our opinion on how your
results are stacking up to others in your industry.
What's it like working with you? What's the process?
We're amazing to work with--if we do say so
ourselves! Actually, we are very proactive in helping you
with your email success.
We keep in touch and we keep our
commitments. We are sticklers for detail and we really enjoy
seeing our customers succeed.
Will you teach me the tricks of cross selling to my customers?
Indeed we will. As we learn about
your customers and products we offer suggestions on how to maximize
your return. Be it outright sales or generating lead.
Can you build or write autoresponders better than I can?
We'll go out on a limb here and outright say
yes. We know what kind of sequence is right for what type of
product or business. Not everything works in every situation.
That's what you're paying us for, to know
what type of sales method will produce the best results.
What kind of increase in business can I expect?
Yes. This is why we do what we do.
If you can't cash it, we haven't done our job properly.
We've been involved in measuring results anywhere from one and a
half times to twelve times better!
I have
thousands of customers with email addresses because I send out a
transactional email (invoice). Is it too late to email them?
There is a special way to approach a list that hasn't heard much
from you. It's never too late but you have to do this right
or
you'll receive more than your fair share of spam complaints.
An you just don't want the headaches that come with being blacklisted.
What
software should I use?
If you don't have an email platform, we'll spend some time to evaluate
your needs and make a recommendation that suits you.
Not all email marketing software providers are created equal.
Using the wrong one can be your first and biggest mistake.
I'm
already using Constant Contact. Do I have to switch?
We don't make you switch if you have a platform. We're
familiar
with a variety of email marketing systems like Constant Contact,
Aweber, Vertical Response, Infusionsoft, MyEmma, MailChimp, and
iContact. We'll make sure you're
using your account to its full potential.
I
am getting a 15% open rate now. How can I get my open rate
higher?
Test, test, test. We love a challenge like this.
We'll tell
you the two main contributors to high open rates and we'll show you how
to improve. More opens = more readers.
I
use Outlook for my email. Is that ok?
Only if you have nothing but time on your hands. We use MS
Outlook ourselves for one on one email. But never, never,
never
for email marketing to a list over 100 people.
How
do I avoid being blacklisted or accused of being a spammer?
Don't spam. Sorry, couldn't help it. There are many
ways to
get blacklisted and to trigger more than normal amounts of spam
complaints.
We know how to protect your emailing reputation. It's more
important than you think.
Can
you really write to my customers like I would?
We know from experience, yes. We
work with you to identify your email marketing "voice" and every one of
our customers has a different "voice."
I want to buy an email list. Why can't I do that?
No, no, no! The short answer is
you'll be dissapointed with the results. We stand apart from
other agencies here in that we feel you can only build a relationship
with someone over time.
A one-time email can't do that.
You would be amazed how often I am asked to
send an email to someone's 'list' because they know that the list wants to hear from
them.
They don't.
How hard can it be? The software companies tell me it's easy
to do? .
It think anyone can learn to play golf, but
not everyone can play golf like Tiger. Email is a bit like
that. Anyone can learn to send an email but there are skills
involved and some things that work and other things that don't work.
We know which is which. We're
Tiger.
Is anyone really earning $50 per email sent?
Afraid so. Email does and
continues to provide the highest ROI (return on investment) of any
marketing channel.
We agree fully.
What
does it cost?
The real question is not what does it cost
but what return will I get on my marketing dollar? If you
could earn $50 for every dollar you invest, how many dollars would you
invest?
To be fair, the cost of our service varies.
It varies based on your situation and what you need to do to
get to the level of the top email marketers. In order to get
you a cost we need to ask a few questions. Fill in the
application below and we'll have a price quote out to you in 24 hours.
No hard sell, no trickery.
It's easy to apply. Fill in the
following survey and we'll spend some time talking to you about your
situation.
We'll even give you some free advice if we
don't think we can help you .. .
