Email marketing is one of the most effective digital marketing strategies.<\/p>\n
However, its most important advantages are the fact that it is accessible to small and large companies alike. Of course, we have to take into account specific details and aspects to get the expected results.<\/p>\n
In today’s post, we’ll talk about all the steps you should follow to send email marketing, starting with a definition, so that\u00a0 you can understand what it means to send email marketing.<\/p>\n
We will also present some advantages of using this type of strategy.<\/strong><\/p>\n Besides the solutions to the most common and habitual problems.<\/p>\n In short, it will be a complete guide for you to start to work with email marketing, with all the information that you need to create efficient newsletters<\/strong> and get the results that you want.<\/p>\n Let’s get started!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Email marketing is a form of digital marketing that uses the e-mail as a means of communication between a person or company (the sender<\/em>) and 2 or more receivers (subscribers<\/em>). You could use emails to send:<\/p>\n [su_list icon=”icon: caret-right” icon_color=”#008af7″]<\/p>\n [\/su_list]<\/p>\n In other words, we can use email marketing as a means of direct communication between us, our company and a list of subscribers, customers or contacts, who will receive our message (email).<\/p>\n In short, it is a communication tool that will allow us to send a message, whatever the type, to our audience and contact a large number of people at once.<\/strong><\/p>\n This is a simplified definition, but I think it helps us as a basis for understanding the usefulness and benefits, we will discuss in the next few paragraphs.<\/p>\n There are several advantages for those who want to send email marketing.<\/p>\n The possibility of sending a message to a group of people is only one of them.<\/p>\n The first things that come to our mind are promotions and different emails to sell our products and services.<\/p>\n In this case, the benefits are clear:<\/span><\/p>\n [su_list icon=”icon: caret-right” icon_color=”#008af7″]<\/p>\n [\/su_list]<\/p>\n If we don’t just think about the advantages of selling our products or services, we will find even more:<\/p>\n For example, and without making a complete list:<\/p>\n [su_list icon=”icon: caret-right” icon_color=”#008af7″]<\/p>\n [\/su_list]<\/p>\n But there are many more advantages, as we’ll see in the next few paragraphs.<\/p>\n In short, we don’t have to send email marketing just to sell, although we can do it and get excellent results.<\/p>\n We should take advantage of all the available options for sending email marketing.<\/p>\n Of course, as this article was posted on Mailrelay’s blog, I would recommend that you use Mailrelay to send email marketing<\/p>\n But I will not tell you to do it without giving you reasons.<\/strong><\/p>\n In fact, we have already talked a lot about this in other posts on our blog, so let’s summarize the benefits of using Mailrelay very quickly:<\/p>\n [su_list icon=”icon: caret-right” icon_color=”#008af7″]<\/p>\n [\/su_list]<\/p>\n But you might be wondering: How can Mailrelay offer a free account with so many advantages? The answer is simple, this email marketing software supports you when you are starting so that you will become a loyal customer for a long time and recommend the email marketing software for other users.<\/p>\n But for you to know the service and see all the advantages of the system, it is best to create your free account and test the email marketing software for yourself.<\/p>\n You will receive all the help you need from the technical support team.<\/p>\n [\/su_list]<\/p>\n One of the advantages of sending email marketing is that you can adapt this technique for your company’s digital marketing strategy.<\/p>\n Many companies send only sales or promotional emails, but we can use our email campaigns for much more than that.<\/p>\n We could say that this is the most basic strategy.<\/p>\n But it is possible to go much further.<\/p>\n I would recommend reading the article:<\/strong><\/p>\n Email marketing strategy, what to consider<\/a><\/p>\n Because it covers all the points for creating a correct strategy, so you know what to consider before you start sending email marketing.<\/p>\n The article talks about setting the price of your product or service, how to analyze the existence of similar products, as well as on the repurchase cycle of the product.<\/p>\n This email marketing strategy is focused on offering to potential customers answers to frequently asked questions related to the product or service they are looking for:<\/p>\n [su_list icon=”icon: caret-right” icon_color=”#008af7″]<\/p>\n [\/su_list]<\/p>\n Something that is commented in the article is that not all companies, for all the products will have to go through all phases of the sales funnel.<\/p>\n Some phases can be ignored using the appropriate stimuli.<\/strong><\/p>\n A right stimulus, in the form of an email with a significant discount, could be used, for example (take advantage of the critical dates to send email marketing with a special message).<\/p>\n For this reason, the post I mentioned recommends a general strategy, but not a strict calendar that could not be changed, and that it would need to be planned in detail.<\/p>\n The post talks about some options, such as using autoresponders, but I will not go into these details in this article.<\/p>\n There are other digital marketing strategies you can follow, you will have to test and see what works best for your industry.<\/p>\n This is one of the most relevant concerns for professionals who want to send email marketing.<\/p>\n This is logical.<\/p>\n If you want to send email marketing, you will surely have to choose a newsletter template and one of your goals is to create a good impression, to be able to increase your sales.<\/p>\n But you don’t have to worry, just create short and simple emails that comply with your an objective without the subscribers having to stop for a long time to understand what you are offering.<\/p>\n What I recommend is that you create a newsletter similar to this example, with a simple template:<\/p>\n As you can see, there is not much to do, and it could be quickly done.<\/p>\n And with this simplicity, it fulfills all the necessary aspects:<\/p>\n [su_list icon=”icon: caret-right” icon_color=”#008af7″]<\/p>\n [\/su_list]<\/p>\n If you are a new user, Mailrelay has an essential guide<\/a> that you can read to create your first newsletter.<\/p>\n As you can see, it’s easy.<\/strong><\/p>\n Also, using a template with a more straightforward design will reduce the possibility of errors in the HTML code of the newsletter, something that could affect your delivery rate.<\/p>\n So do not complicate yourself, simplify things and, from there, keep experimenting with different designs when sending email marketing for creating a template that has all the features you want to use in your newsletters.<\/p>\n To send email marketing, it would be recommended to change some settings in the sender domain.<\/p>\n Perhaps one of the most important is the SPF:<\/p>\n [su_list icon=”icon: caret-right” icon_color=”#008af7″]<\/p>\n If the SPF is not correctly configured, some servers may not accept your message, or consider it as spam, which would affect your email marketing strategy.<\/p>\n That is, your emails will not reach their destination.<\/p>\n Another highly recommended configuration is the use of a custom domain for sending email marketing:<\/p>\n [\/su_list]<\/p>\n [su_list icon=”icon: caret-right” icon_color=”#008af7″]<\/p>\n In principle, with these two settings, you could start sending email marketing, with proper guarantees of success.<\/p>\n But if you have questions, you can contact our support team.<\/p>\n [\/su_list]<\/p>\n How to solve common problems when sending email marketing<\/p>\n This will undoubtedly be one of the points you were most looking forward, right?<\/strong><\/p>\n Anyway, if you followed my design tips above.<\/p>\n And the settings are correct.<\/p>\n You could avoid many problems.<\/p>\n If you still have problems, please don’t hesitate to contact the Mailrelay customer support.<\/p>\n Of course, to avoid many problems, it will be essential to be very careful especially with the first email:<\/p>\n Your first test newsletter<\/p>\n [su_list icon=”icon: caret-right” icon_color=”#008af7″]<\/p>\n [\/su_list]<\/p>\n These are general tips that you can take into consideration for your first tests. It is also strongly recommended that you use a similar design to the one you will use when sending email marketing campaigns to your subscribers.<\/p>\n It is not recommended to just send an empty email with only words like “test.”<\/p>\n Avoid this and read our article with tips on how to prevent your newsletter from being considered spam<\/a>.<\/p>\n Also important, if you need to send hundreds of thousands of emails, contact the Mailrelay support department so that<\/p>\n they can help you to make sure that all settings are correct before you start sending your email campaigns.<\/p>\n This is a common “problem,” especially if the mailing list has been bought (a bad idea).<\/p>\n An email can be marked as bounced for various reasons, for example when the domain no longer exists. If this is the case, your email marketing software can identify these email addresses and remove it from the database automatically, since Mailrelay has tools for detecting these emails while the file is being imported.<\/p>\n In fact, we have an article that deepens this topic:<\/p>\n [su_list icon=”icon: caret-right” icon_color=”#008af7″]<\/p>\n [\/su_list]<\/p>\n I recommend that you read that article whenever you have questions about the status of your subscribers.<\/p>\n This is a subject that is often complex.<\/p>\n If all settings are correct.<\/p>\n And the newsletter design is within the recommended standards.<\/p>\n We will be in the hands of the different ISP, Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo!, Hotmail, etc.<\/p>\n Each filter has different rules for defining whether the message will be delivered to the inbox or in the spam folder.<\/p>\n For example, Gmail uses a user action history (if you never sent newsletters using that domain, you will have no reputation, which is not necessarily something positive). The filter will consider aspects such as:<\/p>\n [su_list icon=”icon: caret-right” icon_color=”#008af7″]<\/p>\n [\/su_list]<\/p>\n In these situations, if the emails are in the SPAM folder, it is possible to temporarily stop sending to subscribers who are not interacting with the campaigns, creating a list only with the best contacts.<\/p>\n To see more information about how ISPs check emails automatically, read this article.<\/p>\n Gmail detects email messages and places commercial emails in the promotions tab.<\/p>\n Although there is no “solution” to a problem that doesn’t exist, you could try to prevent your emails from being placed in the promotions folder.<\/p>\n Although there are no fixed rules, you could try to make your emails not seem so commercial. This can be done using only essential images, decreasing the number of links and using pure HTML.<\/p>\n In short, try to use a few lines of text and only vital links and images.<\/p>\n The layout isn’t that beautiful.<\/strong><\/p>\n That is true, and it doesn’t look like a commercial email, so hopefully it won’t be added to the promotions tab by the filter.<\/p>\n So far, it is not possible to include a video in an email natively, because it will not be displayed on all email clients.<\/p>\n However, you can use services like Viwom, as explained in this article:<\/p>\n [su_list icon=”icon: caret-right” icon_color=”#008af7″]<\/p>\n [\/su_list]<\/p>\n It is an external service that is not offered by Mailrelay, but compatible with our email marketing software.<\/p>\n Each email client is different.<\/strong><\/p>\n Before sending email marketing, it is recommended to do several tests, with multiple e-mail clients, to verify that the message is being displayed correctly in most email software.<\/p>\n Otherwise, you may need to make changes to your newsletter template.<\/p>\n Whenever possible, it is better to use cleaner templates without much code, as it can be interpreted in different ways by different email software.<\/p>\n The more complex the newsletter template, the better the chances of it not being displayed correctly.<\/p>\n Em alguns casos, s\u00e3o as m\u00e1s pr\u00e1ticas que geram problemas.<\/p>\n Voc\u00ea deve ter em mente certas coisas:<\/p>\n Algumas pessoas pensam que n\u00e3o importa se a lista incluir e-mails incorretos ou que n\u00e3o existem mais. Estes usu\u00e1rios acreditam que eles n\u00e3o ir\u00e3o receber o email, sem qualquer outra consequ\u00eancia para o remetente.<\/p>\n Mas isto n\u00e3o \u00e9 verdade.<\/p>\n Emails devolvidos afetam drasticamente a taxa de entrega das newsletters e podem fazer com que a campanha seja considerada spam pelo filtro do servidor destino.<\/p>\n \u00c9 por isso que explicamos antes que voc\u00ea deve ter cuidado ao planejar sua primeira campanha de email marketing.<\/p>\n Especialmente se voc\u00ea precisa enviar email marketing para uma grande quantidade de usu\u00e1rios, mas a lista de emails n\u00e3o foi usada durante muito tempo.<\/p>\n Ou seja, se voc\u00ea nunca enviou uma newsletter usando este dom\u00ednio, a reputa\u00e7\u00e3o ser\u00e1 0, ou seja, neutra, o que pode ser um problema.<\/p>\n \u00c9 por isso que ISPs como\u00a0 o Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo! e outros desconfiam de novos dom\u00ednios e esperam as primeiras campanhas para classificar um novo remetente.<\/p>\n Se a lista de emails estiver repleta de emails inv\u00e1lidos, se os assinantes n\u00e3o abrem a mensagem, ou marcam a newsletter como SPAM, a reputa\u00e7\u00e3o do remetente ser\u00e1 afetada, o que ter\u00e1 um impacto muito negativo para as pr\u00f3ximas campanhas de email marketing.<\/p>\n O principal erro que muitos iniciantes cometem, \u00e9 enviar uma newsletter criada com apenas uma imagem.<\/p>\n Estas newsletters s\u00e3o criadas sem nenhum texto e por isso bloqueadas pelos filtros antispam, o que ser\u00e1 terr\u00edvel, se voc\u00ea precisa enviar email marketing regularmente.<\/p>\n \u00c9 muito melhor usar um design equilibrado, com texto, links e imagens.<\/p>\n Se voc\u00ea tiver d\u00favidas, o seu email marketing software inclui um bot\u00e3o para que voc\u00ea possa avaliar se sua newsletter tem algum destes problemas:<\/p>\n [su_list icon=”icon: caret-right” icon_color=”#008af7″]<\/p>\n\u00b7 What it means to send email marketing<\/h2>\n
