Email marketing is one of the most powerful tools for businesses to connect with their customers. It is a cost-effective way to reach a large audience, build brand awareness, and drive sales from your new website. However, creating an effective email marketing strategy can be challenging especially when you don't have much experience. We're going to cover the basics so you can start 

Step 1: Define Your Goals

Before you start sending emails, you need to define your goals. What do you want to achieve with your email marketing campaign? Do you want to increase sales, build brand awareness, or drive traffic to your website? How you use your list will determine the metrics you use to measure success so be very careful when deciding your overall goal. 

Step 2: Think of Your Target Audience

If you're starting your email marketing journey, then we're going to assume that you have your target audience clearly defined. You want to consider this before you create content to ensure you send out materials your target audience will be interested in. Think about what your audience wants to receive from you, what their day to day schedules may look like and what tone of voice you should use to relate to them.

Step 3: Build Your Email List

To send emails, you need to have a list of subscribers. There are several ways to build your email list, including:

• Adding a sign-up form to your website
• Offering a lead magnet in exchange for email addresses
• Running a social media campaign to promote your newsletter

Step 4: Choose an Email Marketing Platform

There are many email marketing platforms available, such as Klaviyo, Constant Contact, and MailerLite. Choose a platform that fits your budget and needs. We currently use Klaviyo and they have free plans available to start. 

Step 5: Create Your Content

Your email content should be engaging, informative, and relevant to your audience. Some types of content that work well in email marketing include:

• Newsletters
• Promotions and discounts
• Event invitations
• Product updates

Step 6: Design Your Emails

Step 7: Test and Measure Your Campaign

Before you send your emails, test them to make sure they look good on different devices and email clients. Once you have sent your emails, measure your results. Look at metrics such as open rates, click-through rates, and conversions. Use this data to improve your future campaigns.
