Buying mode – Will your database be in Buying Mode when the email is sent? Are they in the position to buy or is it a considered purchase?
Persuasion – Considered Purchase. ‘Softer’
Mango Bikes – Respond more to quality that offers.

Firstly, I’ll be talking about how to create an emotional response from your database. This is taking into account the ‘journey’ you take your customers on, from the sign up process to purchase, to win-back tachniques.
Secondly I’ll be discussing the theory of ‘Inbox Branding’, using subject lines and 1st lines in a slightly different way & more of a branding tool.
Thirdly, I’’ll be talking about persuasive principles. You’ve acquired your data – You’ve created a pretty template and welcomes your newcomers. Except email isn’t working as you’d expected. Where do you go from here?
Lastly I’ll be discussing where we’re going wrong as email marketing, and some tips for how to improve your communications with you recipients.
Keywords play as much of a part in email as they do in SEO. Get to know your customers and potential leads. What keywords do people use to get to your website? What are your services? Put them in your subject line or preview text for every campaign sent. This is especially important to increase people’s awareness of your brand. The next time they think of your keyword, they will automatically know where to go.
As opposed to a ‘hard sell’ email campaign, Inbox Branding and keywords can help create lasting relationships with your customers, keeping you at the forefront of their mind. Instead of relaying the message that ‘you need this NOW!’ you may imply ‘you might not need this now, but when you do, come to us!’ This maintains interest in your brand and makes you stand out from the hard-sellers.
Take note of how people are signing up to your newsletters. Are you asking people to ‘sign up for offers & deals’ or ‘informational newsletters’? You should take this in to account when addressing your subscribers and keep consistent with why they signed up in the first place. A hard sell may put off people who just want information on events – where Inbox Branding may be a much more effective technique.
