Tips to make your July newsletter even more effective
After you’ve decided on your July newsletter schedule, it’s time to prepare your email marketing campaigns. Here are some practices, ideas and tips you can use to make your emails even more effective.
Personalize them
Personalization is a good way to increase engagement rates and make your offers more relevant. For example, you can make personalized gift guides of the relevant products for the holidays and create personalized subject lines in your emails.
Use encouraging calls to action
Calls to action, or CTAs, should encourage your audience to, well, take action — so make sure the ones you use are up to the task. To make your CTAs more noticeable, you can style them as colored buttons. Also, using CTAs relevant to the event or holiday, such as “Get your [event name] discount!” or “Share your [holiday name] experience!”, is a good way to make them stand out.
Work on your email design
Email design is a crucial element of each email marketing campaign, but preparing it takes time and effort. So, we recommend using email templates to make the process easier. Many email marketing platforms including Selzy provide holiday-themed templates with relevant content so that you won’t have to spend too much time preparing your emails. And don’t forget about mobile optimization too.
Perform A/B testing
Holidays bring many sales opportunities, but launching your email campaigns without testing them can be a bit bold. To identify what content best resonates with your subscribers, compare different versions of your emails using the A/B testing feature if one is offered by your email service provider. This technique can help your email marketing campaigns achieve the best possible results.
