Email Marketing Tip Keeping Your Message Short and Memorable

image

Business owners have a lot to say sometimes to much
This Email Marketing tip is intended to get your messages to your customers the best results possible and this starts by being organized with your selection of content and to utilize the power of topic keywords and leading the customer to click on the hyperlinks built into your message. We are also going to share the power of professional templates because a good presentation to whatever your important message is about needs to use color to draw the recipient in. 

Keeping your message short requires a little planning
Creating a message that says it all with few words may sound easy because you will not need to write much but it actually takes a little more effort in the planning and making some notes we referrer to this practice as pre-staging.

A Viper Mailer working example
Lets say you are an electrical supply company and you sell all of the supplies that an electrician or contractor would need for any electrical job they come across. Your business has been running for a few years and you were very smart and began collecting email addresses when you began your business by having your sells staff request customer contact information including their email address and offering on that form that you be permitted to send offers on electrical contracting from time to time. You collected them when the electricians or contractors checked out of your store.

Now you have your email contact list and you want to put them to work so you sign up with an email marketing service like Viper Mailer where you can utilize their contact management account system, colorful graphic templates and result tracking reports and now you want to begin sending out a monthly message to your customers because you know that “the squeaky wheel gets the grease”.

Over the months you have thought about what you want to say in your first message and you have been jotting down little notes on the topics and the offers you are going to be making in your first, second and even third message to your customers.

You have been to the Email Marketing Authority Education Center at Viper Mailer where you learned among other important tips and techniques one that you could relate to about saying a lot with few words make what you say memorable here Email Marketing Educational Tips Number 10 because you know these electricians and contractors are busy just like you are so you have learned to have a fantastic Subject Line and recognizable sender From Address along with a branded logo header at the top of your message with your company logo prominently displayed and all of these three things will greatly get your message recognized and more then likely opened because these customers know who you are.

Now it is time to begin writing your message and since you are in the electrical supply business you have one additional offering like did you know we offer a lubricant for pulling electrical wiring through a 90 degree bend in a conduit that can save the risk of broken wires and reduce the time needed to complete the job and we are running a special on this lubricant for the entire month because we value you and your business.

That is a great offer but rewritten it might get better results.
Message Subject Line could be Electrical Tips of the month
Lubricant Special will slip more money into your wallet click here to learn more.

What we have done is prepared the message with a great subject line for offering multiple products and the electrical supply company has a lot of products and a diverse amount of customer so they might want to offer 3 or 4 specials hyperlinks or 2 or 3 specials with hyperlinks to a web site page of how to or did you know types of helpful tips featuring the products they offer being used in their tips and presentations.

Hyperlinks are only part of the answer to keeping you messages short because the other is just as important it is the selection of shortly written statements the use of bullets and well thought out titles for your statements.

If you take a little extra time in beginning then when you start your message it will flow with great structure and results. Just a reminder that the use of a few pictures help but only a few because the recipient might have image blocker on for their emails and they would only receive boxes with a red “X” in them and then your wording as well the use of two many images can restrict your message from getting through because of the emails size might be too large.

image
Colorful Graphic Templates provide a great presentation
Fortunately when you utilize an email marketing service like Viper Mailer you can select a free colorful graphic template from the many we have to choose from because color like images get a lot of attention when the recipient receives your message in their email box through the viewing pain that area of about 3 inches below your Inbox from and subject lines. Using a color consistently over the months and years will clearly help you brand your company and place your business deeper into the customer’s awareness of your brand and offerings.

The use of a professional template you are afforded two chooses, either utilize one from the email marketing service provider or have your webmaster create one in HTML that you upload into your email marketing account because graphic colorful templates express organization, branding and structure to your message and set you apart from other messages in the customers email Inbox.

Things to do in and around Belmont, California.
Lots to be had in San Francisco however this city shows no entertaining features for us to share with you. The picture of the artistically graffiti painted building was a part of Belmont Park and in its wilder hippy days was quite a park since removed. Though Belmont is on the great San Francisco Peninsula it is inland with no Bay or Ocean access directly.

We are however near great cities along the peninsula that will be entertaining for your enjoyment of adventure so go ahead and enjoy the scenery and write to us if you discover anything we should share about Belmont.

Home Foreclosures are the Buyers Fault

image

Buyers were not dumb, they were wishful and greedy
Did you read your local paper over the past few months and come across an article about a neighbor that is losing or has lost their home, because today in our local paper in Palm Springs, California Logic read about a couple that lost their home and their life savings (75,000.000 dollars) but when one reads between the lines of blame directed at the real estate agent and the mortgage broker and now without trying to point blame at an individual or company, there is the blame it on the system by our own government officials mentality.

So you can clearly see that the couple claims that one of them is legally blind and the other is on dialysis, what dialysis has to do with reading, understanding and signing document papers is beyond me.

What these home owners remind me of is when a down and out celebrity comes onto a talk show blaming everything under the sun for why their lives and careers are dead and gone but at no time does one look into mirror and see what they have done.

image
If buying a home was easy Logic would have bought ten
Look we can sit here and blame everyone involved in the process. What really went on is the equivalent of what the Diamond Industries, De Beers does to push diamonds or the Travel Industries, Travel Industry Association of America does to push tourism is the National Association of Realtors pushes housing and this is in part to why people bought something they could not afford. I mean when is the last time you were in a department store of a car dealer and they asked you hey do you know you can afford this? No they are there to sell you what ever is not bolted to the floor.

People we all come in contact with sellers each day even Logic who encourages you to invest in Domain Names or sign up and utilize our Email Marketing Service to grow your business because we are all in the business of selling you something a true American way of life today since we really or barely produce any products here in America anymore The Boeing Company excluded.

People need to understand that you are going to more then likely be told and encouraged by sells persons that you just got to have this and you are nothing if you do not own one of these and on and on but what all of this housing market really gets down to is Americans lack of doing their homework.

Then there is the greed factor that why buy a 4000 square foot house or one house when we could buy and 8000 square foot house or buy 3 or 4 houses because these babies are going up every week and in fact they were until the numbers got out of perspective.

There is only one thing that for most American’s was not going up it was their income a major ingredient in the value any property and without the increase in income nothing can sustain a continued upswing. Those growth numbers would require that the medium income rise along with the housing market but it never did and in fact unemployment is rising at an alarming month over month number that can continue sending America into trouble.

Please read our economic forecast for 2010 here it is now in the papers everyday America’s Economic Forecast

Read one more about American’s Saving is bad for Retail here Retail is in a tail spin

If the two articles above about the state of the American Economy do not have you rethinking read our Sales Warning about Flipping It here Sales jobs in America hardest hit

Investing in Real Estate
Like any investment there are risks meaning things that go up and go down so why does America’s tax payers which Logic is proudly one of become responsible for an investment gone bad? If you or I buy a stock it is because we believe it is going up up up and the person that sold that very stock sold it because they thought it is going down down down and as the stock buyer the stock goes down where is the bail out for us? 

image
Do not buy into the, I misunderstood the paperwork
Look when a person buys a home they are making (in most cases) the largest purchase of their lives and if they truly did not understand what they were reading about the financial obligations and because of the property price why did the property buyer not hire a real estate attorney to advise them and review the obligations unless it was because the property buyer knew the risks and never thought the values would decrease some of the issues an attorney would have questioned and Logic calls this not facing reality.
