Achieving Clients

We have been telling of our success within the email marketing industry. Here is a look at some more successful clients and why they use our software.

 

The phrase, “the proof is in the pudding” could not be truer for our reoccurring clients. One of our clients has been with us for four years and continues to drive more and more traffic to his sites. Our Business Opportunity client started off sending 5 million emails and has now invested more with sending over 120 million emails a month. Even better, his delivery is better than 50 percent month to month. He also believes that our software prices beat competitors by far.

 

We also service a client within the electronic parts industry. They have been using our software for only two months, but have been able to achieve outstanding delivery with their own list. They send out about 500,000 emails a month and receive a 95 percent delivery.

Are you looking into email marketing? Give us a call, it will be worth it.

The benefit to having a landing page makes it easier for your customers to go from their inbox to your desired destination.  Rather than sending your customers to your homepage, design a separate page where they can, in other words, “cut to the chase.” Chances are, if you send your customer to your homepage, they may never make it to the page you desired.

No one wants to lose on a return of investment.  Try our walk-through and browse our landing page templates.  Still don’t understand landing pages or want to get the walk-through?  Contact us, and we can explain.

Delivery Tips

new mail

We have been speaking about the importance of delivery, which is nothing new to email marketers, but nevertheless important.  After much research and reading, we’d like to share some important tips with you, according to Marketing Land.  They provided an article that provides insight on successful deliverability.  Here is just a quick sum-up of the article.

 

Tip 1: Get a good ESP to prevent hard bounces.

As an email marketer, nothing is probably more annoying than to see bad addresses or bad domains.  You’re probably also aware of being blocked, all leading to your email never being read.

Make sure to verify and validate your subscribers.  Velocity’s software can remove hard bounce email addresses.

 

Tip 2: Clean your list of users

clean

If your list has a high volume of users that have not engaged, they are not doing your list any good.  Marketing Land suggests that a small list of highly engaged users yields a higher ROI.

If they have not shown intent in 90 days, move them to a different list.  You can still use them in the future.

Tip 3: Personalize Emails

inbox

The saying “you’ve only got one shot”, holds true in this instance for email marketers.  Tailoring your content to your users will help your email wind up in the right inbox.  If you are collecting their information, why not use it to increase a successful delivery.

Tip 4: Use a Single IP Address Per Each Type of Email

A lot of marketing emails end up in the spam folder.  By having one IP for every email type it helps increase the success of the delivery rate–even if people say your email is spam.

Tip 5: IP Bonding

Marketing Land suggests using IP Bonding for larger email sends.  When you are sending large amounts of emails at once, it is best to spread them out over several IPs.

 

Remember, delivery is never guaranteed.  See the full article, and see full descriptions on how to be smart when delivering.
