As a small business do you recieve hundreds of SPAM and PHISHING emails?Do they get on your nerves? Do they lack imagination and any design content to make you want to open them? Do your sales emails, sound like these? Then do your self a favour and get your self a FREE Mail Chimp Account.
Has anyone heard of Mail Chimp? If not and like us you are a small business, marketing is all important especially while you are trying to get your name out there in the market place. We get 96% of our guests enquire via the internet and book their accommodation on our website. When people send us emails whether to enquire or to book, we save everyones email in our contacts box.
These are then exported to our Mail Chimp contacts list where I create newsletters and advertisements to these people to let them know what we are up to, whats going on down here and keep them abreast of any offers we might be doing.
This is an ideal way of marketing our selves to the wider populus and means that we can keep our company name in the forefront of the market place by keeping in touch with past guests and canvassing for new.
Mail Chimp is Brilliant and helps you navigate through the legalities of sending out cold emails and helps you to edit your contact list so that you do not have your emails reported as being spam or phising and that people who receive them, get our news letters knowing with confidence that our emails are not just 1 of a million spam mails we get and I'm sure you get too!
Once you have designed and sent your advertising campaign, they also provide you with a very detailed report on how that campaign did and this is helpful because you it helps you to learn how to write good copy and achieve a good conversion rate to your campaign.
Most importantly of all, it is FREE! we signed up to Free for life membership and each month you get 3000 credits which allow you to email our customers on a regular (but not so regular people get sick of hearing from us.) campaigne and like I said it enables us to market our business on the net most successfully. I do not know if Im allowed to recommend other businesses in this way or provide links to their site as Im new on this site and am earning my right to add links to my posts but if you are interested, just input Mail chimp in to any major search engine and sign up for an account you wont regret it.
Oh by the way, I am a right carrott cruncher, and its so good even I was able to muddle my way through it and have today received two enquires only after posting my campaign this morning!!
