Email marketing helps you to stay in touch with old and new customers and can work for any type of business, big and small. Emails are a great way to promote a new product, advertise a sale, or simply touch base with your subscribers/customers.

The most difficult part of email marketing is getting a good open rate, that’s why business emails should be kept simple yet engaging with their intended audience. Always include good quality written content, whilst having eye-catching visuals to compliment the text is key. Having a good ratio of text and visuals make the email more pleasing to the eye, and keeps the reader engaged. This is only if they actually open up the email that is.

Getting your readers to open the email will require a title the creates curiosity, making them want to know more. Always include easy links to your website and any items mentioned within the email, if the user has to jump through hurdles to get to the information on your website, you will likely lose their interest quickly.
