The short answer is that yes, it can be — if you set it up properly.</p>\n<p>Optimizing your <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/marketing/email/campaigns/\" target=\"_self\">email marketing campaigns</a> can take time. But starting with a personalized strategy and using tools like marketing automation and AI make the process straightforward. It’s all about laying a foundation, listening to the data, and making adjustments as you go.</p>\n<p>For starters, build your foundational strategy around segmentation, personalization, and automation. Segmentation and personalization allow you to reach individual customers with highly targeted content that’s meaningful to <em>them</em>. That means they’re <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/blog/email-subscribers/\" target=\"_self\"><ins>more likely to engage with the emails</ins></a> and, in turn, your brand.</p>\n<p>Here’s a high-level look at some <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/marketing/email/best-practices/\" target=\"_self\">best practices for email marketing:</a></p>\n<h3><strong>1. Craft marketing emails that people will engage with</strong></h3>\n<p>Emails are an art and a science, and efficiency is key for success. It’s important to not only get into the inbox but also to get them to engage with your emails. From eye-catching subject lines to the power of dynamic content, email marketing is equal parts what you say and how you say it.</p>\n<h3><strong>2. Follow legal compliance guidelines</strong></h3>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/blog/data-privacy-laws-cpra-compliance/\" target=\"_self\"><ins>Adhering to the laws</ins></a> and guidelines related to email communications will keep you out of trouble, out of spam filters — and into customers’ inboxes. Following data protection and anti-spam standards will help you ensure the safety, security, and privacy of emails sent and received. It’s also just good business to make sure you’re not spamming potential customers, or invading their privacy in any way.</p>\n<h3><strong>3. Improve email deliverability</strong></h3>\n<p>With all the automation happening for emails, be sure your connections are linked properly and all information is inputted correctly to <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/form/marketing/email-deliverability-guide/?ve=g-recaptcha-response/?d=pb\" target=\"_blank\"><ins>ensure deliverability</ins></a>. Don’t let your emails get lost in cyberspace. Make sure to properly address your emails, and <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/blog/email-deliverability-readiness-peak-volume/\" target=\"_self\"><ins>take steps to ensure</ins></a> that they don’t bounce back or wind up in spam filters by researching what is best for your industry.</p>\n<h3><strong>4. Acquire new subscribers</strong></h3>\n<p>Email marketing is all about reaching the masses and building campaigns to reach more and more people. There are so many ways to build your subscriber list, but the first step is to ask them! Ask them to share, accept your newsletter invitation, or simply don’t unsubscribe. Make sure you activate your outreach channels, online and in person.</p>\n<h3><strong>5. Engage your subscribers</strong></h3>\n<p>Acquiring email subscribers is just the start. <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/marketing/email/opt-in/\" target=\"_self\">Opt-in</a> incentives, coupons and offers, curated content, and personalized messaging are all proven ways to keep subscribers engaged. Craft an engaging drip campaign that keeps your potential customers coming back for more by providing value and connection.</p>\n","anchor_id":"best","blade_background_type":{"blade_background_color":"255, 255, 255","kind":"standard_background"}},"path":"/marketing/email","urlLoc":"us","curHref":"/marketing/email/?bc=OTH","cdnEnvTag":"stable","pageAttrs":{"livechat":{"enabled":true},"content_type":"page"},"wpTemplate":"resources-template","curLocale":"en-us"},{"id":"1715297037137_ut1_403497","name":"sf/promotion","attributes":{"blade_layout":"float_image","audience_segment":["customer","prospect"],"minimize_blade_spacing_bottom":true,"minimize_blade_spacing":true,"experiment_type":"content","headline":"Stay up to date on all things marketing.","description":"<p>Sign up for our monthly marketing newsletter to get the latest research, industry insights, and product news delivered straight to your inbox.</p>\n","image":{"src":"https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/06/category-marketing-role-based-newsletter.jpg?w=1024","alt":"Astro standing with outstretched hands in front of the Marketing Cloud newsletter.","title":"2023/06/category-marketing-role-based-newsletter.jpg","sizes":[{"src":"https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/06/category-marketing-role-based-newsletter.jpg?resize=150,150","width":150,"height":150},{"src":"https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/06/category-marketing-role-based-newsletter.jpg?resize=300,169","width":300,"height":169},{"src":"https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/06/category-marketing-role-based-newsletter.jpg?resize=768,432","width":768,"height":432},{"src":"https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/06/category-marketing-role-based-newsletter.jpg?resize=1024,577","width":1024,"height":577}],"width":1024,"height":577,"image_alignment":"right","image_background_gradient_color":"251, 243, 224"},"link_1":{"variant":"secondary","label":"Sign up now","source":"standard-link","url":"https://www.salesforce.com/form/other/role-based-newsletter/?d=pb","target":"_blank","ariaLabel":""}},"path":"/marketing/email","urlLoc":"us","curHref":"/marketing/email/?bc=OTH","cdnEnvTag":"stable","pageAttrs":{"livechat":{"enabled":true},"content_type":"page"},"wpTemplate":"resources-template","curLocale":"en-us"},{"id":"1715710172554_rar","name":"sf/textmainbody","attributes":{"audience_segment":["customer","prospect"],"minimize_blade_spacing_bottom":true,"minimize_blade_spacing":true,"experiment_type":"content","headline":"What are the costs involved with email marketing?","headline_size":"h2","description":"<p>The cost of email marketing depends on <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/blog/small-marketing-team-deliver-big-results/\" target=\"_self\"><ins>the size of your business</ins></a>, the size of your audience, and the number of emails you send each month.

An email marketing agency costs about $400 to $600 a month for a small business and anywhere from $2,000 to $12,000 for large businesses.</li>\n<li>Two, the return on investment for email marketing is quite high. Industry experts put the ROI of email marketing at <a href=\"https://www.litmus.com/blog/infographic-the-roi-of-email-marketing/\" target=\"_blank\"><ins>$36 for every dollar spent</ins></a>, on average. That number climbs even higher for certain industries, like retail and e-commerce.</li>\n</ul>\n<h3><strong>List of email marketing cost considerations</strong></h3>\n<p>When considering the cost of email marketing, you’ll want to break it down into two main buckets — technology and labor:</p>\n<ol>\n<li>Technology costs include software, email service provider, and internet service provider.</li>\n<li>Labor costs include writing, design, and campaign management.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>Depending on the size of your business and the complexity of your email marketing needs, you may be able to absorb some of these costs into preexisting budget items. For instance, most businesses are already paying for internet and email services. If you have graphic designers in-house, you likely already have the software needed to design images for email campaigns.<br><br>The takeaway is clear, however: the ROI for email marketing is well worth it.</p>\n","anchor_id":"costs","blade_background_type":{"blade_background_color":"255, 255, 255","kind":"standard_background"}},"path":"/marketing/email","urlLoc":"us","curHref":"/marketing/email/?bc=OTH","cdnEnvTag":"stable","pageAttrs":{"livechat":{"enabled":true},"content_type":"page"},"wpTemplate":"resources-template","curLocale":"en-us"},{"id":"1715710260601_1383","name":"sf/textmainbody","attributes":{"audience_segment":["customer","prospect"],"minimize_blade_spacing_bottom":true,"minimize_blade_spacing":true,"experiment_type":"content","headline":"Types of email marketing","headline_size":"h2","description":"<p>Experts often point to four types of emails most commonly used in email marketing. The exact names and descriptions will vary, but organizing these marketing emails into types is helpful in understanding how to build campaigns.</p>\n<p>Pro tip: <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/marketing/email/tracking/\" target=\"_self\">Track every email </a>that you send for continuous improvement. Let’s dig in.</p>\n<h3><strong>1. Newsletters</strong></h3>\n<p>Newsletters are one of the most common types of marketing emails. An email newsletter (or an e-newsletter) is an email that is sent to your subscribers regularly to keep them informed about the latest news and updates about your product or brand. Depending on your industry, you can send them on a weekly or monthly basis.</p>\n<p>Newsletters that show up regularly in subscriber inboxes are a great way to keep your brand top of mind for customers and prospects alike. <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/form/other/role-based-newsletter?marketing=true\" target=\"_blank\"><ins>Successful newsletters</ins></a> often deliver a mix of content, including material on thought leadership, how-tos, and new product and service announcements. There are many benefits to newsletters, including:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Building and strengthening relationships with subscribers</li>\n<li>Increasing brand engagement</li>\n<li>Maintaining customer retention</li>\n<li>Building customer loyalty</li>\n</ul>\n<p>In fact, 31% of marketers say email newsletters are the <a href=\"https://www.industryselect.com/blog/email-marketing-statistics-for-b2b-success\" target=\"_blank\"><ins>best way to nurture B2B leads</ins></a>.</p>\n<h3><strong>2. Promotional emails</strong></h3>\n<p>Another commonly seen type of marketing email, promotional emails are used to make direct offers to your email list. Offers can range from discounted pricing on specific products to promotional content for a product or service.</p>\n<p>New product announcements, brand news, white papers, and webinars are all examples of content typically found in promotional emails. When it comes to driving purchases<a href=\"https://www.barilliance.com/email-marketing-statistics/#t-1630097342858\" target=\"_self\"><ins>,</ins></a> <a href=\"https://www.barilliance.com/email-marketing-statistics/#t-1630097342858\" target=\"_blank\"><ins>email accounted for 19.8% of all transactions</ins></a>, trailing only paid search (19.9%) and organic traffic (21.8%) among digital channels. It’s no wonder promotional emails are so popular — they work!</p>\n<h3><strong>3. Relational emails</strong></h3>\n<p>Relational emails are designed to (surprise, surprise) build relationships with prospects and customers by adding value upfront. That value comes in the form of free content and information, such as subscriber welcomes, blog articles, surveys, social updates, and more.</p>\n<p>The more engaging you can make these relational emails, the more connection you will build with your potential or current customers. In fact, newsletters are often categorized as relational emails, though we think them significant enough to warrant a category of their own.</p>\n<h3><strong>4. Transactional emails</strong></h3>\n<p>A transactional email is an email that is sent to a prospect following a commercial transaction or specific action performed by that person, such as a follow-up to a subscribe click, a purchase in your online store, or a password reset request.</p>\n<p>Each transactional email requires the recipient to take action and is meant to further the potential or current customer along their journey with the brand. Personalization is key for these emails as it is a specific action they are following to connect with you.</p>\n<p><strong>5. Lead nurturing emails </strong></p>\n<p>Lead nurturing emails are targeted communications designed to engage potential customers throughout their buying journey. These <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/ap/marketing/email/drip-marketing/\" target=\"_self\"><ins>drip marketing emails</ins></a> provide relevant content and information based on the recipient's interests and actions, helping build relationships and gradually guiding them toward purchasing. By delivering value at each stage, lead nurturing emails increase the chances of converting leads into loyal customers.</p>\n<p><strong>6. Confirmation emails</strong></p>\n<p>Confirmation emails are automated messages sent to users to verify the successful completion of an action, such as a purchase, registration, or booking. These emails typically include details of the transaction or action taken, providing assurance and a record for the recipient. They help build trust by confirming that the user's request has been processed and serve as a reference for future interactions.</p>\n<h3><strong>7. Interactive emails </strong></h3>\n<p>Whatever types of emails you’re sending, it’s well worth looking into <a href=\"https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/interactive-email-forms?trailmix_creator_id=aubreestamper&trailmix_slug=email-marketing\" target=\"_self\"><ins>adding interactive components</ins></a> to your messages.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.litmus.com/blog/interactive-email-for-beginners-6-interactive-elements-you-can-add-to-your-emails-today/\" target=\"_blank\"><ins>Interactive emails</ins></a> provide the web-like functionality necessary for recipients to take actions within their inbox. This means customers have the ability to add items to their cart, book a hotel room, watch a video, and more without leaving the body of the email.</p>\n<p>The main benefit of including interactive elements in your emails is a <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/form/events/webinars/form-rss/2436355/?d=pb\" target=\"_blank\"><ins>boost in engagement</ins></a>. Interactive content gives your customers something to do versus just reading an email.

Know your business goals for email marketing</strong></h3>\n<p>First things first: Define your business goals. Knowing what you need to accomplish with your emails will help you hone in on the email marketing tools and features you need in an <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/marketing/engagement/email-marketing/\" target=\"_self\"><ins>email marketing software</ins> </a>solution.</p>\n<h3><strong>2. Know what emails to send</strong></h3>\n<p>Now that you know the different types, you can decide what is best for your brand. From newsletters to interactive, transactional messages, there are multiple kinds of marketing emails you can send. Make sure the tool you consider supports the easy design, distribution, and analytics tracking of your preferred formats.</p>\n<h3><strong>3. Know what connects emails to customer data</strong></h3>\n<p>Data is the gateway to scalability. Choosing an email marketing tool that integrates with your customer data system makes it easier to send emails with dynamic content, run automated drip-and-nurture campaigns, and so much more. Email tools that integrate with CRM systems, and understand metrics like open rates, click-through rates, and more open the door to advanced functionality and scalability.</p>\n<h3><strong>4. Know what integrates email marketing to your business tools</strong></h3>\n<p>Once you start growing subscriber lists and collecting analytics data on campaign performance, you’ll want to share that information across your organization. Team collaboration is key to scaling your email marketing campaign to new heights.</p>\n<h3><strong>5. Know what tools your employees can use easily</strong></h3>\n<p>The best email marketing tool in the world won’t do your business much good if it’s too complicated to use. Look for <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/blog/consolidate-email-service-providers/\" target=\"_self\"><ins>a tool that’s user-friendly</ins></a> and supported by solid documentation and support. Find a tool that offers a host of self-service support options to help you find the answers you need, on demand.</p>\n","anchor_id":"started","blade_background_type":{"blade_background_color":"255, 255, 255","kind":"standard_background"}},"path":"/marketing/email","urlLoc":"us","curHref":"/marketing/email/?bc=OTH","cdnEnvTag":"stable","pageAttrs":{"livechat":{"enabled":true},"content_type":"page"},"wpTemplate":"resources-template","curLocale":"en-us"},{"id":"1715711099104_rl2","name":"sf/textmainbody","attributes":{"audience_segment":["customer","prospect"],"minimize_blade_spacing_bottom":true,"minimize_blade_spacing":true,"experiment_type":"content","headline":"What is the best email marketing software?","headline_size":"h2","description":"<h3>Great <a href=\"https://www.salesforce.com/marketing/engagement/email-marketing/\" target=\"_self\"><ins>email marketing software</ins> </a>gives you the power to run email campaigns from start to finish <em>and</em> analyze the results to make the next campaign even better.

A marketing automation platform helps to scale lead management activities, such as coordinating and managing marketing campaigns and nurturing and scoring leads to determine engagement.</p> <p>Marketing automation is the engine that makes segmentation <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/blog/marketing-innovations-dreamforce/" target="_self"><ins>and personalization possible</ins></a> at scale. Today’s marketing automation platforms allow email marketers to <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/marketing/email/segmentation/" target="_self"><ins>segment audiences</ins></a> by a number of identifiers such as age, location, interests, and purchasing history. This approach to email marketing means customers receive highly targeted and relevant messages.</p> <p>As a result, businesses are more likely to see higher engagement and more conversions from their emails.</p> <p>This is particularly true if your audience has <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/blog/sales-emails-tips/" target="_self"><ins>opted in to your email outreach</ins></a> — which simply means they’re interested in your business and your products or services. That presents an opportunity for your brand to capitalize on and develop trust with audiences which lead to stronger relationships and better customer experiences.</p> <p>One of the largest benefits of email marketing is the capability to personalize messaging. <a href="https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/personalized-email-marketing" target="_self"><ins>Email personalization</ins></a> can come in many forms, such as using recipients’ first names or recommending products based on their purchase history. The capabilities are improving beyond that fast.</p> <p>AI uses advanced algorithms and machine learning to analyze vast amounts of data and deliver highly tailored and relevant email content to individual recipients.

The short answer is that yes, it can be — if you set it up properly.</p> <p>Optimizing your <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/marketing/email/campaigns/" target="_self">email marketing campaigns</a> can take time. But starting with a personalized strategy and using tools like marketing automation and AI make the process straightforward. It’s all about laying a foundation, listening to the data, and making adjustments as you go.</p> <p>For starters, build your foundational strategy around segmentation, personalization, and automation. Segmentation and personalization allow you to reach individual customers with highly targeted content that’s meaningful to <em>them</em>. That means they’re <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/blog/email-subscribers/" target="_self"><ins>more likely to engage with the emails</ins></a> and, in turn, your brand.</p> <p>Here’s a high-level look at some <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/marketing/email/best-practices/" target="_self">best practices for email marketing:</a></p> <h3><strong>1. Craft marketing emails that people will engage with</strong></h3> <p>Emails are an art and a science, and efficiency is key for success. It’s important to not only get into the inbox but also to get them to engage with your emails. From eye-catching subject lines to the power of dynamic content, email marketing is equal parts what you say and how you say it.</p> <h3><strong>2. Follow legal compliance guidelines</strong></h3> <p><a href="https://www.salesforce.com/blog/data-privacy-laws-cpra-compliance/" target="_self"><ins>Adhering to the laws</ins></a> and guidelines related to email communications will keep you out of trouble, out of spam filters — and into customers’ inboxes. Following data protection and anti-spam standards will help you ensure the safety, security, and privacy of emails sent and received. It’s also just good business to make sure you’re not spamming potential customers, or invading their privacy in any way.</p> <h3><strong>3. Improve email deliverability</strong></h3> <p>With all the automation happening for emails, be sure your connections are linked properly and all information is inputted correctly to <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/form/marketing/email-deliverability-guide/?ve=g-recaptcha-response/?d=pb" target="_blank"><ins>ensure deliverability</ins></a>. Don’t let your emails get lost in cyberspace. Make sure to properly address your emails, and <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/blog/email-deliverability-readiness-peak-volume/" target="_self"><ins>take steps to ensure</ins></a> that they don’t bounce back or wind up in spam filters by researching what is best for your industry.</p> <h3><strong>4. Acquire new subscribers</strong></h3> <p>Email marketing is all about reaching the masses and building campaigns to reach more and more people. There are so many ways to build your subscriber list, but the first step is to ask them! Ask them to share, accept your newsletter invitation, or simply don’t unsubscribe. Make sure you activate your outreach channels, online and in person.</p> <h3><strong>5. Engage your subscribers</strong></h3> <p>Acquiring email subscribers is just the start. <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/marketing/email/opt-in/" target="_self">Opt-in</a> incentives, coupons and offers, curated content, and personalized messaging are all proven ways to keep subscribers engaged. Craft an engaging drip campaign that keeps your potential customers coming back for more by providing value and connection.</p> </div> </article> </div> <div class="background__gradient" style="background-image: linear-gradient(180deg, #FFFFFF 0%, rgb(255, 255, 255) 100%);"></div> </section> </div><div data-blade-id="1715297037137_ut1_403497" data-blade-position="9" data-blade-name="sf/promotion" data-blade-variant="promotion" data-blade-source="www" data-blade-type="blade"> <section id="1715297037137_ut1_403497" class="relative promotion--blade promotion--right-image" > <div class="container pb-shadow pb-large-corner container--min-spacing-bottom container--min-spacing-top"> <article class="grid grid_main promotion_layout--float_image" data-module-id="1715297037137_ut1_403497" data-module-name="Stay up to date on all things marketing." data-module-position="1" data-module-type="headline" data-module-track-impressions=""> <div class="image__wrapper mobile-pt-0 pb-64 pt-64 mobile-pb-40 mobile-ml-32 mobile-mr-32 promotion_layout--float_image-image_wrapper " > <img loading="lazy" src="https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/06/category-marketing-role-based-newsletter.jpg?w=1024" class="image__asset" alt="Astro standing with outstretched hands in front of the Marketing Cloud newsletter." sizes="100vw" srcset="https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/06/category-marketing-role-based-newsletter.jpg?resize=150,150 150w,https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/06/category-marketing-role-based-newsletter.jpg?resize=300,169 300w,https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/06/category-marketing-role-based-newsletter.jpg?resize=768,432 768w,https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/06/category-marketing-role-based-newsletter.jpg?resize=1024,577 1024w" height="577" width="1024"/> </div> <div class="content__wrapper pt-64 mobile-pb-8 mobile-pt-40 mobile-ml-32 mobile-mr-32 pb-64 promotion_layout---image-content_wrapper"> <header class="promotion__blade-heading"> <h2 class="pbc-g-text-display-4 mt-0 mb-24 mobile-mb-16" style=" "> Stay up to date on all things marketing. </h2> <div class="blade__description pbc-g-text-body-1-2 mb-48 mobile-mb-32"> <p>Sign up for our monthly marketing newsletter to get the latest research, industry insights, and product news delivered straight to your inbox.</p> </div> </header> <div class="cta_container flex flex--float_image ctas__1"> <pbc-button class="cta_button__wrapper" data-link-text="Sign up now" data-link-url="https://www.salesforce.com/form/other/role-based-newsletter/?d=pb" data-link-type="primary cta" > <a class="cta_button" data-size="" data-variant="secondary" data-stacking="default" aria-label="Sign up now: Stay up to date on all things marketing." href="https://www.salesforce.com/form/other/role-based-newsletter/?d=pb" target="_blank" rel="noopener" > Sign up now </a> </pbc-button> </div> </div> </article> </div> </section> </div><div data-blade-id="1715710172554_rar" data-blade-position="10" data-blade-name="sf/textmainbody" data-blade-variant="textmainbody" data-blade-source="www" data-blade-type="blade"> <section id="costs" class="relative textmainbody--blade" > <div class="container container--min-spacing-bottom container--min-spacing-top"> <article class="grid grid_main text--left" data-module-id="1715710172554_rar" data-module-name="What are the costs involved with email marketing?" data-module-position="1" data-module-type="headline" data-module-track-impressions=""> <header class="textmainbody__blade-heading grid grid_sub"> <h2 class="headline text__headline--large" style=" "> What are the costs involved with email marketing? </h2> </header> <div class="blade__description"> <p>The cost of email marketing depends on <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/blog/small-marketing-team-deliver-big-results/" target="_self"><ins>the size of your business</ins></a>, the size of your audience, and the number of emails you send each month. Those costs will fluctuate for your business, as you move in and out of busy times of the year, launch new products and services, and much more.<br><br>That said, the good news is twofold:</p> <ul> <li>One, it doesn’t have to cost much to get started with email marketing, especially if you do it in-house. An email marketing agency costs about $400 to $600 a month for a small business and anywhere from $2,000 to $12,000 for large businesses.</li> <li>Two, the return on investment for email marketing is quite high. Industry experts put the ROI of email marketing at <a href="https://www.litmus.com/blog/infographic-the-roi-of-email-marketing/" target="_blank" class="link__new-tab"><ins>$36 for every dollar spent</ins><img class="link__new-tab-icon" alt="Opens in a new window"></a>, on average. That number climbs even higher for certain industries, like retail and e-commerce.</li> </ul> <h3><strong>List of email marketing cost considerations</strong></h3> <p>When considering the cost of email marketing, you’ll want to break it down into two main buckets — technology and labor:</p> <ol> <li>Technology costs include software, email service provider, and internet service provider.</li> <li>Labor costs include writing, design, and campaign management.</li> </ol> <p>Depending on the size of your business and the complexity of your email marketing needs, you may be able to absorb some of these costs into preexisting budget items. For instance, most businesses are already paying for internet and email services. If you have graphic designers in-house, you likely already have the software needed to design images for email campaigns.<br><br>The takeaway is clear, however: the ROI for email marketing is well worth it.</p> </div> </article> </div> <div class="background__gradient" style="background-image: linear-gradient(180deg, #FFFFFF 0%, rgb(255, 255, 255) 100%);"></div> </section> </div><div data-blade-id="1715710260601_1383" data-blade-position="11" data-blade-name="sf/textmainbody" data-blade-variant="textmainbody" data-blade-source="www" data-blade-type="blade"> <section id="types" class="relative textmainbody--blade" > <div class="container container--min-spacing-bottom container--min-spacing-top"> <article class="grid grid_main text--left" data-module-id="1715710260601_1383" data-module-name="Types of email marketing" data-module-position="1" data-module-type="headline" data-module-track-impressions=""> <header class="textmainbody__blade-heading grid grid_sub"> <h2 class="headline text__headline--large" style=" "> Types of email marketing </h2> </header> <div class="blade__description"> <p>Experts often point to four types of emails most commonly used in email marketing. The exact names and descriptions will vary, but organizing these marketing emails into types is helpful in understanding how to build campaigns.</p> <p>Pro tip: <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/marketing/email/tracking/" target="_self">Track every email </a>that you send for continuous improvement. Let’s dig in.</p> <h3><strong>1. Newsletters</strong></h3> <p>Newsletters are one of the most common types of marketing emails. An email newsletter (or an e-newsletter) is an email that is sent to your subscribers regularly to keep them informed about the latest news and updates about your product or brand. Depending on your industry, you can send them on a weekly or monthly basis.</p> <p>Newsletters that show up regularly in subscriber inboxes are a great way to keep your brand top of mind for customers and prospects alike. <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/form/other/role-based-newsletter?marketing=true" target="_blank"><ins>Successful newsletters</ins></a> often deliver a mix of content, including material on thought leadership, how-tos, and new product and service announcements. There are many benefits to newsletters, including:</p> <ul> <li>Building and strengthening relationships with subscribers</li> <li>Increasing brand engagement</li> <li>Maintaining customer retention</li> <li>Building customer loyalty</li> </ul> <p>In fact, 31% of marketers say email newsletters are the <a href="https://www.industryselect.com/blog/email-marketing-statistics-for-b2b-success" target="_blank" class="link__new-tab"><ins>best way to nurture B2B leads</ins><img class="link__new-tab-icon" alt="Opens in a new window"></a>.</p> <h3><strong>2. Promotional emails</strong></h3> <p>Another commonly seen type of marketing email, promotional emails are used to make direct offers to your email list. Offers can range from discounted pricing on specific products to promotional content for a product or service.</p> <p>New product announcements, brand news, white papers, and webinars are all examples of content typically found in promotional emails. When it comes to driving purchases<a href="https://www.barilliance.com/email-marketing-statistics/#t-1630097342858" target="_self"><ins>,</ins></a> <a href="https://www.barilliance.com/email-marketing-statistics/#t-1630097342858" target="_blank" class="link__new-tab"><ins>email accounted for 19.8% of all transactions</ins><img class="link__new-tab-icon" alt="Opens in a new window"></a>, trailing only paid search (19.9%) and organic traffic (21.8%) among digital channels. It’s no wonder promotional emails are so popular — they work!</p> <h3><strong>3. Relational emails</strong></h3> <p>Relational emails are designed to (surprise, surprise) build relationships with prospects and customers by adding value upfront. That value comes in the form of free content and information, such as subscriber welcomes, blog articles, surveys, social updates, and more.</p> <p>The more engaging you can make these relational emails, the more connection you will build with your potential or current customers. In fact, newsletters are often categorized as relational emails, though we think them significant enough to warrant a category of their own.</p> <h3><strong>4. Transactional emails</strong></h3> <p>A transactional email is an email that is sent to a prospect following a commercial transaction or specific action performed by that person, such as a follow-up to a subscribe click, a purchase in your online store, or a password reset request.</p> <p>Each transactional email requires the recipient to take action and is meant to further the potential or current customer along their journey with the brand. Personalization is key for these emails as it is a specific action they are following to connect with you.</p> <p><strong>5. Lead nurturing emails </strong></p> <p>Lead nurturing emails are targeted communications designed to engage potential customers throughout their buying journey. These <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/ap/marketing/email/drip-marketing/" target="_self"><ins>drip marketing emails</ins></a> provide relevant content and information based on the recipient's interests and actions, helping build relationships and gradually guiding them toward purchasing. By delivering value at each stage, lead nurturing emails increase the chances of converting leads into loyal customers.</p> <p><strong>6. Confirmation emails</strong></p> <p>Confirmation emails are automated messages sent to users to verify the successful completion of an action, such as a purchase, registration, or booking. These emails typically include details of the transaction or action taken, providing assurance and a record for the recipient. They help build trust by confirming that the user's request has been processed and serve as a reference for future interactions.</p> <h3><strong>7. Interactive emails </strong></h3> <p>Whatever types of emails you’re sending, it’s well worth looking into <a href="https://trailhead.salesforce.com/content/learn/modules/interactive-email-forms?trailmix_creator_id=aubreestamper&trailmix_slug=email-marketing" target="_self"><ins>adding interactive components</ins></a> to your messages.</p> <p><a href="https://www.litmus.com/blog/interactive-email-for-beginners-6-interactive-elements-you-can-add-to-your-emails-today/" target="_blank" class="link__new-tab"><ins>Interactive emails</ins><img class="link__new-tab-icon" alt="Opens in a new window"></a> provide the web-like functionality necessary for recipients to take actions within their inbox. This means customers have the ability to add items to their cart, book a hotel room, watch a video, and more without leaving the body of the email.</p> <p>The main benefit of including interactive elements in your emails is a <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/form/events/webinars/form-rss/2436355/?d=pb" target="_blank"><ins>boost in engagement</ins></a>. Interactive content gives your customers something to do versus just reading an email. Visual and interactive elements can even lead to a <a href="https://www.martechadvisor.com/articles/marketing-automation-2/personalization-and-optimization-will-be-the-focus-for-email-marketers-in-2017/" target="_blank" class="link__new-tab"><ins>300% increase in click rates</ins><img class="link__new-tab-icon" alt="Opens in a new window"></a>.</p> <p>By using interactive emails, you have the opportunity to update the email in real-time, even after it’s been sent. You can also include formfills (a software program that automatically fills forms in the user interface) in the body of the email. These options ensure your emails are providing the most recent information and giving customers a chance to get even more personalized content from you.</p> <p>Examples of interactive emails include options for:</p> <ul> <li>Booking an appointment via a form</li> <li>Seeing up-to-date product information in a shopping cart</li> <li>Quizzes, polls, and surveys about interests or experiences</li> </ul> </div> </article> </div> <div class="background__gradient" style="background-image: linear-gradient(180deg, #FFFFFF 0%, rgb(255, 255, 255) 100%);"></div> </section> </div><div data-blade-id="1715183446283_kms_4034910" data-blade-position="12" data-blade-name="sf/promotion" data-blade-variant="promotion" data-blade-source="www" data-blade-type="blade"> <section id="1715183446283_kms_4034910" class="relative promotion--blade promotion--right-image" > <div class="container pb-shadow pb-large-corner container--min-spacing-bottom container--min-spacing-top"> <article class="grid grid_main promotion_layout--full_height" data-module-id="1715183446283_kms_4034910" data-module-name="See the top trends in data, AI, and more — from nearly 5,000 marketers worldwide." data-module-position="1" data-module-type="headline" data-module-track-impressions=""> <div class="image__wrapper mobile-pt-0 promotion_layout--full_height-image_wrapper relative " > <img loading="lazy" src="https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/05/9th-som-promo-blade-1024x1024-1.png?w=1024" class="image__asset" alt="Cover of the Salesforce State of Marketing report" sizes="100vw" srcset="https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/05/9th-som-promo-blade-1024x1024-1.png?resize=150,150 150w,https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/05/9th-som-promo-blade-1024x1024-1.png?resize=300,300 300w,https://wp.sfdcdigital.com/en-us/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2024/05/9th-som-promo-blade-1024x1024-1.png?resize=768,768 768w" height="1024" width="1024"/> </div> <div class="content__wrapper pt-64 mobile-pb-8 mobile-pt-40 mobile-ml-32 mobile-mr-32 pb-64 promotion_layout---image-content_wrapper"> <header class="promotion__blade-heading"> <h2 class="pbc-g-text-display-4 mt-0 mb-48 mobile-mb-32" style=" "> See the top trends in data, AI, and more — from nearly 5,000 marketers worldwide. </h2> </header> <div class="cta_container flex flex--full_height ctas__1"> <pbc-button class="cta_button__wrapper" data-link-text="Get the report" data-link-url="https://www.salesforce.com/resources/research-reports/state-of-marketing/" data-link-type="primary cta" > <a class="cta_button" data-size="" data-variant="secondary" data-stacking="default" aria-label="Get the report: See the top trends in data, AI, and more — from nearly 5,000 marketers worldwide." href="https://www.salesforce.com/resources/research-reports/state-of-marketing/" target="_self" rel="noopener" > Get the report </a> </pbc-button> </div> </div> </article> </div> </section> </div><div data-blade-id="1715710374799_tqb" data-blade-position="13" data-blade-name="sf/textmainbody" data-blade-variant="textmainbody" data-blade-source="www" data-blade-type="blade"> <section id="started" class="relative textmainbody--blade" > <div class="container container--min-spacing-bottom container--min-spacing-top"> <article class="grid grid_main text--left" data-module-id="1715710374799_tqb" data-module-name="How to get started with email marketing" data-module-position="1" data-module-type="headline" data-module-track-impressions=""> <header class="textmainbody__blade-heading grid grid_sub"> <h2 class="headline text__headline--large" style=" "> How to get started with email marketing </h2> </header> <div class="blade__description"> <p>Now that we’ve covered the different types of email campaigns you can launch, here’s <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/blog/get-marketing-cloud-email-specialist-certified/" target="_self"><ins>how you can start</ins></a> an email marketing program in your company.</p> <h3><strong>1.

Choosing an email marketing tool that integrates with your customer data system makes it easier to send emails with dynamic content, run automated drip-and-nurture campaigns, and so much more.
