Being a successful online marketer requires diligence and understanding people. Beyond having a name and an email address for people that have opted into your offer gives you the opportunity to connect with them.
Short of calling each and every person up that signs up for that free report, the pressure is now on you to insure that they stay interested.
That interest is measured in different ways that I will outline below. Understanding the various aspects of an email marketing campaign will require an appropriate response.
Track your list size. The growth of your list is important relevant to the amount of marketing that is being used. Using any type of marketing technique should result in a list size growth that is expanding on a regular basis. If not, then a new marketing technique should be implemented.
Number of bounces within your list is important to track as well. If an
abnormal amount of invalid email addresses are being encountered then
there may be a problem. Monitoring and removing bad email addresses will
improve delivery rate and also may bring down the cost of the auto
responder fees as well.
Number of unsubscribes from your list. There is a normal attrition of
unsubscribes that is to be expected. But if an abnormal number of
unsubscribes are encountered after a broadcast email is sent, then it's
time to re-evaluate the content you are sending.
Making sure that the needs of the customer are satisfied and relevant
content is being given is important to keep people wanting more
information.
Click through rate. This is the scorecard that needs to be looked at
hard. This number reflects the success of the message that has been
sent. The click through rate signifies that people want more information
about what has been given to them.
Creating a relationship that offers empathy will be shown through click through rates and eventually conversion rates.
These conversion rates signify actual sales that is one of the main objectives of online marketing.
Learning to monitor an email marketing campaign requires understanding
the aspects that have been outlined. Reacting and modifying the message
being given to a list will be the foundation of success to the internet
marketer.
