Is Email Dead? Debunking Email Marketing Myths

5 min read

Join us in our latest podcast episode with email marketing guru Amandine Liepmann to discover the secrets of successful email marketing. From crafting a perfect welcome sequence to segmenting subscribers and testing content, we’ll reflect on the power of personalization and effective communication using email.

Find out how to build strong digital relationships with your customers, drive long-term sales, and achieve success through email marketing.

Meet Amandine

Amandine Liepmann runs an email marketing agency ListBurst and sells pre-made Mailchimp templates for businesses. As a top 1% email marketer on Upwork, Amandine’s insights and strategies are invaluable resources for entrepreneurs and business owners looking to improve their email marketing campaigns.

Is Email Marketing Dead?

During the podcast, Amandine Liepmann talks about the misconception that email marketing is no longer effective. In feite, it is still the most successful marketing channel, with an average ROI of $42 for every dollar invested. This is in contrast to social media marketing, wat slechts een rendement oplevert van $5 for every dollar invested. Veel ondernemers zien de kracht van e-mailmarketing over het hoofd, er niet in slagen de aanzienlijke voordelen ervan te benutten.

Best practices voor het uitbreiden van een e-maillijst

Amandine Liepmann adviseert ondernemers die hun e-maillijst organisch willen laten groeien, om overal waar ze kunnen een aanmeldingslink te plaatsen, van blogposts tot sociale-mediaprofielen tot websiteformulieren.

Amandine also discusses the success of interactive popups on websites that offer discounts to visitors. Interactieve pop-ups hebben een 9% opt-in tarief, which is significant when compared to the standard popup’s 3-4%. Amandine suggests testing different types of incentives to encourage signups, zoals kortingen, dollar amounts off, of gratis verzending. You can see which deals resonate best with your audience.

Echter, it’s not just about having people sign up but also about nurturing those leads with relevant information and creating a memorable experience for them. Avoid spamming your subscribers. Ensure they only receive content they are interested in.

Tools for Writing Email Copy

Entrepreneurs often experience writer’s block when creating their first email campaign. Amandine Liepmann advises writing without fear of judgment. She recommends using AI writing assistants like Jasper and ChatGPT, as well as using Grammarly, to help with grammar and context. These tools help business owners create high-quality content without worrying about making mistakes.

Must-Have Email Campaigns

A welcome sequence of 2-5 E-mails kunnen een uitstekend laaghangend fruit zijn voor ondernemers die een goede eerste indruk willen maken en consistente verkopen op de lange termijn willen stimuleren. Het is een effectieve manier om uzelf en uw bedrijf voor te stellen, en waarde bieden aan uw abonnees. Amandine stelt voor dat u zich concentreert op de manier waarop uw producten of diensten transformatief zijn, in plaats van uzelf simpelweg voor te stellen.

Een welkomstserie biedt de mogelijkheid om vertrouwen en geloofwaardigheid op te bouwen bij nieuwe abonnees. Welkomst-e-mails hebben open tarieven tussen 50-80%, wat uitstekend is, vooral in vergelijking met de openingsratio van een standaard e-mail 20-30%.

Amandine stelt ook voor om een ​​sjabloon te gebruiken en aangepaste segmenten te maken. Bijvoorbeeld, segmenten maken voor klanten die in de afgelopen zes maanden, maar niet recentelijk, aankopen hebben gedaan. Voor trouwe klanten, Het ontvangen van scherpe kortingen of exclusieve mogelijkheden zoals webinars kan hun relatie met een merk of bedrijf helpen versterken.

Verlaten winkelwagentjes en vervolg-e-mails na aankoop kunnen ook krachtig zijn. Meer geavanceerde strategieën, like product recommendation emails, can be implemented using customer data to suggest related products.

Less Is More

Studies have shown that entrepreneurs have around 7 seconds to grab their audience’s attention in an email, which may further decrease with the rise of video content. Amandine advises focusing on one call to action and one piece of information to keep email content concise. Interessant is dat, text-based emails with a succinct format tend to have the highest deliverability rates and may be perceived as more personal by recipients.

Test the Waters with AB Testing

Amandine recommends using MailChimp’s AB testing feature to test different email ideas against each other. AB testing can help entrepreneurs understand what resonates with their audience and improve their email performance. It’s important to isolate one variable at a time when testing content, and A/B testing subject lines is an easy way to start.

So simple to use – even my most technophobic clients can manage. Easy to install, quick to set up. Light years ahead of other shop plugins.
I’m so impressed I’ve recommended it to my website clients and am now using it for my own store along with four others for which I webmaster. Beautiful coding, excellent top-notch support, great documentation, fantastic how-to videos. Thank you so much Ecwid, you rock!
I’ve used Ecwid and I love the platform itself. Everything is so simplified it’s insane. I love how you have different options to choose shipping carriers, to be able to put in so many different variants. It’s a pretty open e-commerce gateway.
Makkelijk te gebruiken, betaalbaar (and a free option if starting off). Looks professional, many templates to select from. The App is my favorite feature as I can manage my store right from my phone. Highly recommended 👌👍
I like that Ecwid was easy to start and to use. Even for a person like me, without any technical background. Very well written help articles. And the support team is the best for my opinion.
For everything it has to offer, ECWID is incredibly easy to set up. Highly recommend! I did a lot of research and tried about 3 other competitors. Just try ECWID and you'll be online in no time.
