Five Ways To Revamp Your Pathetic Follow-Up Emails - FastCompany

Five Ways To Revamp Your Pathetic Follow-Up Emails - FastCompany | The MarTech Digest | Scoop.it
1. DON’T BE SHY
Some people hesitate to follow up because they think it would be intrusive or off-putting. But typically the opposite is true: Rather than viewing such persistence as annoying, most professionals view follow-up as a sign of passion and initiative.

2. CONSIDER YOUR TIMING

3. OFFER A CONCISE RECAP

Instead, forward your original email as a record, but write a new message on top that rephrases your ask in a more concise manner, ideally so that the recipient can skim the follow-up email and respond without reading down the thread.

4. ADD A NEW ANGLE

5. BE POLITE, NOT PUSHY

Why "Who" Sends B2B Nurturing Emails Matters - Marketing Interactions | #TheMarketingTechAlert

Why "Who" Sends B2B Nurturing Emails Matters - Marketing Interactions | #TheMarketingTechAlert | The MarTech Digest | Scoop.it
A lot of marketing emails used in B2B nurturing programs don't have a live person tied to them. Signature lines that reference Your [Company] Team, or no signature at all are the norm. This bothers me.

Do You Need Marketing Automation to Do Lead Nurturing? Sort Of. – The Point | #TheMarketingAutomationAlert

Do You Need Marketing Automation to Do Lead Nurturing? Sort Of. – The Point | #TheMarketingAutomationAlert | The MarTech Digest | Scoop.it

Excerpt...


Here’s a short list of what else marketing automation can do that your ESP likely can’t:

• Responding immediately and automatically to sales-ready behaviors (like visiting certain high-value pages on your Website)

• Ensuring that inbound sales leads are all followed up with promptly and personally, independent of sales bandwidth

• Tailoring email content automatically to demographic criteria like persona, industry, and company size, as well as where the prospect is in the sales cycle

• Pre-populating landing pages with information previously provided by the prospect, thereby increasing conversion rates and campaign performance

• Tailoring registration form questions based on what questions an individual prospect has already answered, and what else you need to know about him/her

• Structuring multi-step drip campaigns that respond automatically to whether a prospect opens, clicks, or responds to the campaign (or past campaign behavior, or demographic criteria)

• Reflect campaign information (sent, opened, clicked) automatically within your CRM system, giving sales reps more information about prospect behavior

• Measure email campaign performance by true ROI vs. just opens, clicks, and leads (and compare campaigns side-by-side by the same criteria)

• Integrate social media seamlessly into email campaigns in a way that extends the reach and value of the campaign

Joemktg's insight:

Let me correct "sort of" to read "yes." You can jerry rig a CRM system (e.g., SFDC) to execute on this, but the time, hassle and error rate is too large. If you want lead nurturing, you need to invest in a MAP.

What Is an Email Workflow? [FAQs] - HubSpot | #TheMarketingAutomationAlert

What Is an Email Workflow? [FAQs] - HubSpot | #TheMarketingAutomationAlert | The MarTech Digest | Scoop.it
Learn what an email workflow is, and figure out if you should be using them in your marketing.


Condensed...


An email workflow is series of automated emails that will be sent -- or not -- based on a person's behavior or contact information. With workflows, you can trigger actions based on any information you have about your leads, allowing you to send the right message to the right person at the right time

Basically, the benefit of email workflows is twofold: You can 1) better engage leads (and turn them into customers) through relevant, targeted emails, and 2) save time by automating the whole process. 

 

Indications It’s Time to Use Workflows:

  • You’re generating leads but ignoring the ones that are not immediately ready to buy
  • Your sales team is unhappy with the quality of the leads you’re sending them
  • You’re sending the same emails to your entire list
  • You’re collecting valuable lead information, but not using it for segmentation
  • You’re not targeting your offers and messaging based on your leads’ needs
  • You’re sending or following up to all of your emails manually (and it's getting unwieldy)
Joemktg's insight:

Honestly, you should have a workflow in place for every campaign!
