Best Practices For Email Marketing

Newsletters are very important tool for communicating with consumers directly, but require good expertise to ensure that your messages stand out, reach the right audience, and are actually read.

Email is a cost-effective tool to send across your brand messages in real-time, and alongside social media, it is a perfect channel to relate to daily events, send quick updates and news, and be part of daily trends. It helps in building consumer loyalty, as regularly sharing good content reminds fans of the value you offer and always keeps your brand top of their mind.

It is also a great measurable way to utilise and share your existing contents and increase awareness about your offers and promotions.

Ofcom? more like ‘Oncom’…

We have been saying how times are changing and so are we and guess what? Ofcom’s most recent report on the communications market in the UK proves this (not that we needed any convincing).

As the digital revolution continues to unfold, consumer habits continue to change. The report announced that the UK is now a ‘smartphone society’. It showed that 33% of Internet users consider their smartphone to be the most important device for going online, compared to the 30% who stick to their laptop. Compared to 39% in 2012, today, 66% of UK adults have a smartphone in their pockets.

But this change is not merely amongst the younger generation; the report showed that since 2012, amongst 55-64 year olds, smartphone users have gone up from 19% to 50%. It’s not just web surfing that has changed, but also the weekly use of emails. Today a total of 52% of adults have access to email, a staggering increase when compared to the 5% in the 2005 Ofcom report.
