USING EMAIL BLAST
AS AN EFFECTIVE ONLINE MARKETING SOLUTION
Email broadcasting is the
cheapest and often the most effective online marketing technique to reach your customers, potential customers, members
and other appropiate target audiences*.
While a response rate of 2% is considered
fair on traditional mail campaigns, with all of their considerable design,
printing, handling and postage costs, a well-conceived email 'blast' costing
a fraction of a penny per email often returns a response of rate
of 10-20% and more.
If you wish to communicate effectively with a target audience, whether customers,
members, or trade contacts, contact us. We can prepare a beautifully designed
Webpage (email containing formatted text and images) that presents your
products, services, newsletter, etc. with links right to your order page
or other response platform. Then we will email it to every person on your
list.
If you want to do this on a monthly basis, ask us about our special price
of just $250 per broadcast, which includes all of the following
services:
- A compelling HTML (webpage) and/ or text
email page built to your specifications, with copy writing and graphics as
needed
- Extract your data from Excel, Access,
or even text files, and filter out duplicates and bad
email addresses
- Up to 10,000 recepients (incremental
cost for additional)
- Execute the broadcast for on the most effective day
and time we determine with you
- Report on all bad email addresseses, collect 'opt-out'
responses and update data
- Report on the email event
Optionally, we can provide you with special response
pages for even more specific tracking and reporting. We can also provide
consulting on effective ways to build up your own emailing
list of individuals and organizations who want to hear your message.
* NOTE - if you, like
all of us, are frustrated by the volume of unwanted emails you receive
and are hearing about legislative measures being taken to combat this
- we share your concern! Please read the section below for an explanation
of the difference between 'SPAM' and legitimate, effective email blast marketing.
NOT SPAM!! SPAM is the word used for the indiscriminate
broadcast of millions of email files. The content is often undesirable
or offensive to most people, and the sender of the message is hidden through
tricks of technology. The list of receipients are pulled
at random, often by machines that are simply looking for active email
addresses with no other qualifications.
The email broadcasts CINIVA provides are to defined lists (often
just 3000 to 10,000 recepients) who are in some way affiliated
with your business or organization (i.e. customers, members, subscribers)
or who have expressed an interest in your product or service and in fact
have asked you to send them information.
A typcial datalist might be compiled from visitors to
your website who have filled out a form, persons you have met at trade
shows who want to keep updated on your products, or members of trade groups
or organizations that you belong to. In summary, here are the reasons
our email broadcasts can be considered a legitimate online marketing
tool and that will not anger the recepients:
- Receipients have either explicitly requested
or given you permission to send them email blast information
OR are existing customers, affiliates, or associates for whom your message
would implicitly be considered appropriate
- Every email blast sent offers the opportunity for
the recepient to 'opt-out' or easily request to be removed
from your emailing list with a simple click
- The sender of the email (your organization)
is obvious and is made
explicit to the recepient and includes legitimate and active contact
information
