by

Such as we saw on the previous post “Requirements for a good message on Email Marketing (I)”, there are different tricks to help us plan a more efficient email marketing strategy.
The companies’ main objectives are brand awareness and becoming a well known brand. But let’s be honest, companies don’t look only for this. There are exceptions, but most of the companies who book an email marketing campaign want to boost sales and increase their benefits. This is the harsh reality and the main reason our company will be judged for. If a company invests 50,000 €, do you think they will be happy with a ROI of 5,000€? Let’s be wise, this can destroy our credibility for this market.
Direct Marketing is the only one facing this problem. Strategies such as email marketing aim to get actions from consumers, as its main goal is to fulfil the user’s needs. However, there are different and easier ways to do so that will help us to reach our goals:
