Even with social platform usage continuing to rise, email remains a key element of any effective digital marketing strategy, providing a direct connection between you and your target audience, and facilitating a range of engagement benefits.
When it’s done right.
Being granted access to a users’ inbox is not something that can be taken for granted, as abusing the privilege can easily get you cut off, and lost to that individual forever. That’s why your emails have to be planned, and they have to be personally relevant as much as possible. Get these elements right, and email will likely become the backbone of your marketing outreach process.
