Email Marketing For Your Small Business 2024
Is marketing giving you a headache? I see it time and time again – a brilliant technopreneur with a fantastic business idea that can’t get a thing right to attract enough customers. They have spent countless hours, weeks, even months, mapping out a very detailed, intricate marketing plan. The truth of the situation is, in fact, that what’s behind the marketing matters more than the marketing itself. Find out what your target market WANTS. You might have a killer marketing strategy but if your conversions are low, it could be that you need to look at what’s behind the marketing to find the real reason nobody is buying from you. A better mind map, to start, is, who are you trying to attract, and why (besides you making money) are you trying to reach them? Think out all the reasons they would look for you, and when they find you, what would delight them, and what would frustrate them?
Nobody wants to fill up her letterbox with crap, get calls all the time and spend her time wading through junk. Apparently your mobile phone was ringing constantly for over a week right? Local mail service operator, SingPost was reported to have said that most residents welcome promotional offers from companies as only 0.8 per cent of the 1.2 million Singapore households chose to opt out of receiving unaddressed advertisements. Not too bad for Singapore! However over the vineyard, it is somewhat deceptive for SingPost to say that residents "welcome the catalogues and discount coupons they receive in their mailboxes" when the company make it so hard for residents to opt out from the mailing service.
When preparing advertising to promote their businesses, many people overlook the most obvious way to reach local customers - through an email marketing campaign. They're less messy than traditional pin-boards or billboards and they may not seem as important as the published media, but they're widely read - and what's more, they tend to be read by the sort of people who are most effective at spreading word of mouth. Making effective use of email marketing can significantly increase the amount of attention your business gets, at very little cost.
Now how about giving out flyers at places like the train station or bus stop. Apparently standing in the middle of the way where people exit or make entrance, and especially during rush hour at the SMRT Stations. We see that the security guards don't even bother to ask those flyer distributor to stand elsewhere. Some even push the flyers into your hands. What does that make up to?
How about putting up a advertisement banner on a tree in a car-park? Maybe not in Singapore. Get ready for a hefty fine! So what now again?

Email marketing is a digital electronic action of sending out message of
a commercial nature. It is normally broadcasted typically to a group of
people, using email. In the advertisement realm every email sent to a
potential or current customer could be considered as email marketing.
Email marketing is the most direct way you can communicate to your potential or existing clients and is also one of the most cost effective ways to drive sales. Even if you have a longer period of time to execute your digital marketing strategy allocating a minimal email marketing budget will get you a high ROI.

An email can be converted into a digital flyer as advertisement to request for business, find a potential sale or even ask for an online donation.
