Have you ever thought to yourself, “now that this whole social media thing is booming, I can quit all of my email marketing?”
Wrong.
While social media is a potent tool when utilized to its full potential, it doesn’t mean your business can drop everything else.
Email marketing is highly effective, inexpensive and is typically responsive. Email marketing is also a useful brand-building tool because your readers see your business or brand regularly, keeping it top of mind.
The rise of mobile phone use has also affected the email marketing world. According to an article by MailChimp, 40.8% of U.S. consumers read their email via mobile devices. The same article touched on a study held by MailChimp that found 72% of participants read their emails in bed. MailChimp reported, “Often readers haven’t even turned on their lights yet and are still cozy under blankets while reading emails.”
