Email Marketing “If you’re running a real business, email is still the most effective way to universally reach people who have expressed interest in your product or site. For that, it really can’t be beaten. ” – Colin Nederkoorn (founder Customer. IO)
Let’s Look at some Stats ü More than 34% of people worldwide use emails (ie; 2. 5 billion people) ü Predicted to increase to 2. 8 billion towards end of this year ü 196 billion emails are sent daily, out of which 109 are business emails **above data is provided by Radicati group’s research conducted in 2014
Email Isn't Social Media, but It's Still Pretty Popular 81% and 80% of respondents, respectively, said email marketing drives customer acquisition and retention. Email’s usefulness was followed by that of other digital tactics like organic search at 62% for acquisition and social media at 44% for retention—both rated effective by far fewer respondents than chose email.

Email Marketing Systems
What’s an Email Marketing System? Email marketing systems are web-based services that are designed to send mass emails: Approved bulk mailers Follow professional and legal mailing practices Provides listing hosting and subscription management User-friendly and typically requires little to no technical skill Detailed reporting & feedback
“But can’t I just use Outlook/Hotmail/Gmail? ” Your standard email account (e. g. , Outlook, Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo etc. ) is not designed for email marketing ü No authentication = easily get blacklisted or identified as spam ü Can’t track clicks or opens ü No automatic bounce removal ü No control over unsubscribing ü No personalization ü Poor HTML
Choosing an Email Management System Factors to Consider: ü Ease of use ü Availability of templates / ability to create your own templates ü Pricing (Per email? Per subscriber? ) ü Ability to segment your lists
