Our advice when implementing an Email Marketing strategy for your company

It is true that this type of strategy is very effective when it comes to communicating with the customer. However, effective communication is achieved with a well-designed strategy. Here are a series of tips to carry out your Email Marketing strategy:

  • The number matters in email marketing, the more people we want to involve, the more this strategy will help us.
  • Months prior to the event you should clarify everything related to the database in which you collect all the necessary information for registration: Date chosen for the event or dates if there is more than one, place where it will be held, comments for the speaker as previous doubts, data for payment....
  • You will have to create a complementary landing page where you will centralize all the information related to the event, including the list registrations. Basically it is the place to concentrate and keep your followers in social networks and your own subscribers informed, as well as the place where they can complete the registration with the additional data you need from them.
  • To capture people interested in this and future events, you can add a field in the registration form like "I'm interested in your events" to send them information about them in compliance with the privacy policy. In addition, messages related to the event will be sent regularly to promote it among subscribers.
  • It is important not to saturate the subscribers, personalize the mailings and in this way, you will not send the subscription form again to people who have already received it or even to people who have already subscribed to the event. This is where good segmentation comes into play and therefore different content for different types of potential or active customers.
  • Send periodic mailings to people who have already subscribed to the event, updating and keeping them informed about what is going to be done, the place, the speakers and the different news of the event.
  • Email marketing campaigns do not end with the end of the event. Create different mailings with campaigns that keep the interest of the attendees active, with satisfaction forms, new pending events or mailings of gratitude for the attendance.
