They’re tweeting, posting, and youtubing, but your potential customers are also reading emails!

You have such an opportunity to reach them in their inbox, a place that goes with them whether their at work, home, or even sadly, on vacation. But how you do it is key.

A poll in 2017 found that 80.8% of holiday email was ignored. We’re talking the Black Friday ads and the Christmas shopping sales at a time when people need/want to spend money. So why did this happen?

Plain and simple: people will not work for emails. If they have to pinch and zoom to read, they won’t.

So to start: Design Matters.You need to consider font and headline size, button spacing, and images that speak for themselves.

Also, Be a Little Sentimental. Consider the generic name your email is coming from and dare to personalize it. Engage readers with a simple, emotion-evoking subject line.

And finally, KISS: Keep It Short [and] Simple.  You get 8 seconds (less than the attention span of a goldfish!) to make your impression. Use it wisely.
