One other reason why you need to use email marketing in your business today is to ensure that your business appears professional, competent, and capable of providing the highest quality product and service.
You must think about this from the perspective of a consumer to truly understand the importance of appearing professional and an expert to your clients or customers.
Most prospective customers today will interact with your business for the first time through your website. Most of your customers and clients may never do business with you face to face or visit your physical location if you have one.
That means that their first impression of you will be formed by how well or poorly your website is designed. This can either be a huge boost or knock to your website’s conversion rates, your ability to generate revenues and keep your business afloat.
But even more important than that is how well your emails market your business and give your leads the impression that you’re a credible professional or organization worth their salt.
They might visit your website once and become a leader in your email list. From that point forward they will only learn more about your business, products, services, and your brand through the emails you send them.
If you don’t send any emails then the lead is dead and your business will be soon.
If you send poorly written emails with tacky, templated designs, and a cookie-cutter offering then you will only get the lowest quality clients or customers who don’t pay well.
And they will be a gift considering that most people will choose not to do business with you for the simple fact that they will feel that the poor quality of your emails are also reflective of the poor quality of your product or service.
On the other hand, if you send extremely high-quality emails with HD 1080p photos (if photos are included), easy-to-read copy that addresses their fears, and consistently and reliably delivers value to your email subscribers then be prepared to have subscribers reach out, even when there is no offer in your emails, and asking you how can they do business with you.
In this instance, the quality of your emails will help to determine the quality of business you get and the success of your business.
