Why Small Businesses Need Email Marketing

Posted on March 22, 2023March 22, 2023 by Larry

Promoting your products and services cannot be limited to websites and social media platforms. There are several ways to put your business at the forefront. Email marketing is quickly becoming an inexpensive and effective way to gain customers and boost growth. The results of this marketing strategy are not always evident. However, this article will explore five benefits of email marketing for your small business. 

  1. Gain access to the right audience 

The digital world is saturated with posts, videos, and reels vying for your customers’ attention. Studies have shown that most people swipe or fast-forward these marketing campaigns without taking a second glance. With email, things are different. An email is more personalised and likely to be read, as most people check their inboxes multiple times daily. Also, by creating a subscription list through your website, you can send informative and creative content to people already interested in your business. If you struggle with creating high-quality content, hiring professionals like Adtaxi to help you would be best. Receiving your emails can also urge them to reach out with any questions or concerns and buy from you. 

  1. Save money for your business

Whether on a tight budget or just starting, email marketing can be one of the best ways to promote your business with just a click. Consider pausing printing and mailing brochures and flyers, hiring influencers, and sponsoring. You can send hundreds of emails and reach more people without breaking the bank. Ensure you add a call to action in your emails and share a link to your website to generate leads and revenue. 

  1. Boost sales 

Email marketing can help small businesses boost their sales. With a more personalised approach to a specific audience, you can maintain a connection with them and attract them to your goods and services. Also, you can keep them updated about your loyalty programs, special discounts, and promotions through email marketing. It is important to balance and focus on sending relevant and quality emails at a reasonable pace and frequency. Too many emails might land in their spam folder. 

  1. Grow your audience 

As a small business, you want many people to hear about you and engage. You can build a global audience by email offering free downloads, discounts, and other incentives. Building email lists also makes customers feel included and loyal to you. The more unique your emails are, the more likely they are to share your emails, social media, and website links with their loved ones. 

  1. Easily track your campaigns

You can measure the success rate of your email campaigns after you click send. Tracking the open rates, delivery, and unsubscribed rates allows you to determine what gets the response you need and what doesn’t. Also, you can strategise properly and know the numbers to aim for in your marketing campaign. 

Email marketing is a good way to build brand awareness, allowing you to reach a wide audience and grow your business. A successful email marketing strategy will help you enjoy the benefits listed above.

About Us

My good friend Ben started this site many years ago.  Ben said this about himself, “am a follower of Christ, a rabid computer geek, small business owner, and breaker of things. He is married way above his station in life and has three wonderful children who have made driving him insane their mission in life.”

Well back in 2019, Ben suddenly passed away from cancer and he asked me to continue the site. I like Ben, am a follower, a computer geek, a small business owner, and the father of 5 great children.

I miss Ben everyday but run this site in his honor. Thanks for visiting and enjoy!
