Successfully Leveraging Email Marketing: During the Experience Phase

As in the Purchase phase, integration between your CRM and email marketing systems is essential to tailor email content based on customer status.

ARE YOU EXPERIENCING?

Make sure that you have email addresses for the right people. The people that provided you their email as part of researching or purchasing may not be the primary ones experiencing your offering.

MANUAL LABOR

Again, if you don’t have an automated email marketing platform, then you’ll do some “manual email marketing”.

Campaign Idea: What’s Your Story? – Email campaign to encourage customers to share their journey on your customer forum or community to selecting your service and how it has impacted their success.

  • Manually place customers into segments and send relevant messages over time
  • Balance ‘guidance’ and ‘related offering’ campaigns.
  • Deliver best practices and information about product implementation and extensions they may want to consider.
  • Advanced email systems can help ensure email delivery (not blocked by spam filters)
