E-newsletters are still an effective marketing strategy to connect with your sphere. If your company is currently sending a content-based email campaign or considering one, here are some ideas for keeping open rates and engagement high.
- If your e-newsletter campaign has been inconsistent in the past, or dropped off and you want to revive it, launch a re-engagement campaign. A recent survey published by Salesforce shows that 63 percent of respondents found re-engagement emails to be “very effective.” This works well with subscribers who haven’t opened your emails for a while. Acknowledge the lapse with a “We’ve missed you” introduction, and focus on one call to action, such as one article or market report to click on.
- Share local market reports, such as local home value trends, sales data, development updates, and other real estate news.
- Offer home maintenance or interior design trends. Give advice for how to vet a contractor. List basic improvements that will increase a home’s value. Write and share a blog post about what your current buyers are looking for in a home.
- Don’t forget to ask for audience feedback. According to Emma, an e-marketing platform, one of the simplest ways to find out what your sphere enjoys reading is by asking them. Add a feedback function in your newsletters or send out a short survey.
