Have you heard people say "email marketing is only for big brands with big budgets"? Well, it's been proven to be a myth. Lately, small businesses have been taking the market by storm, not with venture capital or funding, but with top-notch marketing, and email marketing is one of the best methods.
Email marketing has a lot of advantages, but you don't want to get into your customers' bad books. When small businesses start to take off, they often choose to invest in email, which can do wonders for their business, but only if it's used the right way.
You don't want to bombard your customers by clogging their inboxes and flooding them with emails. This might actually hurt your business in the long term. You need to ensure that your emails are relevant to your customers.
Combining a CRM with email marketing software can help you reach the right audience with the right content.
Ask yourself what main goal you can achieve by bringing a CRM and an email marketing platform together? You might immediately think of increased sales or more subscribers, and those will come in time, but the most important benefit of bringing these two mega tools together is stronger and more successful customer relationships!
Our newest integration, with Constant Contact, will help you achieve exactly that, and more!
