Marketing veteran Jay Schwedelson took center stage, sharing his expertise on email marketing strategies. He emphasized the crucial role of engagement, highlighting the power of crafting compelling subject lines and utilizing effective content formats.
Here are a few of his big takeaways:
Schwedelson stressed the importance of making a strong first impression with your initial email interaction. This underscores the need to grab your audience's attention and provide them with valuable content.
As marketers, we often think about that first email as a "receipt" to thank someone for a purchase or for subscribing to your newsletter. However, Schwedelson explained how a more thought-out strategy to get users to engage with this first email will signal to their email clients that they want to read your emails.
The discussion went into the impact of Artificial Intelligence tools like ChatGPT and perplexity.ai on email marketing.
Schwedelson shared some great insights and tips for crafting prompts for AI as well as crafty techniques like asking Google Gemini to summarize a Youtube video to turn it into a supporting blog post.
Schwedelson addressed the upcoming Apple Mail Promotions tab, a potential hurdle for email marketers. We can expect the way we reach inboxes to evolve, but will it be a good thing?
Schwedelson explained that the new strategy will be to understand these email groupings and use them to your advantage. For example, email Series will be categorized and represents a big opportunity for email marketers.
The session concluded with a lively Q&A segment where Schwedelson tackled audience questions on crafting email series, avoiding marketing noise, and (perhaps a bit lighter) even shared some of his favorite TV shows.
Overall, this HubSpot User Group meetup provided valuable insights for marketers looking to leverage the latest tools and strategies to stay ahead of the curve in email marketing.
