AdWords Management - Using E-Mails
Get your customers to stay with you three times as long by using email correctly. Email is the most personal way to contact someone on the internet. Using email you can build trust and create and a whole business based on your personality, and sell to your clients repeatedly.
Google AdWords discussions are incomplete without a conversation about how to turn that costly millisecond click into a long lasting relationship. When an individual clicks on your AdWords ad, you pay 50 cents regardless of what happens afterward. If your potential client only looks at your page for a few seconds then leaves, chances are you won’t see him again unless you pay again.
Fifty cents for five seconds of someone’s attention-dang, that’s $600 an hour! Kind of depressing if you look at it that way. On the other hand, if that person gives you her e-mail address, you can communicate with her on a regular basis for little or no cost. If you’re trying to sell a $1,000 product, which is easier to get from your prospects: a $1,000 order or their e-mail address?
When your sales process is more involved, there is a greater need to divide it into more manageable steps.
The Effectiveness Of Email Use Relies on Being Personal
Ordinary advertisers have diminished understanding of the intimate qualities of email. They don’t grasp that by violating that intimate quality they can drive away prospective clients, ones who might otherwise have been receptive.
It is essential to write as an individual. The exception is, if you are writing to someone who is a part of a group where each member knows the other members. Otherwise always compose your emails on a personal vein. Speak to your client, one person.
1. A “From” Field that Shows You’re a Real Person
If a personal approach works for the actual text of your e-mail messages, chances are that same principle will apply to other details in your e-mail. Such as your “from” field, for example. Consider the different impressions these “from” lines create:
Bill Kastl
William Kastl
William D. Kastl
Nakatomi Corporation
William D. Kastl, Nakatomi Corporation
Nakatomi Sales Department
Bill Kastl, Nakatomi Sales
Without the “spam” look you want to be amiable and personal. Spammers aim for this look themselves, the “this is from your long lost friend” look, so the truly personal look can be a difficult thing to achieve. The ticket is to include something in the email that is so connected to their peculiar interest that spammers could never have invented it.
Select a “from” field that will cement your customers to you.
2. A Provocative Subject Line
The key aspect of email is that the success or failure of it is all about settings. The subject line of your e-mail works not because they adhere to copywriting rules and formulas, but because it highlights the particular interests of a specific set of people at the right time.
If you were shown a common a common cross section of e-mail subject lines, you would find it impossible to distinguish them from spam. Therefore we need to talk about a subject you comprehend: Google AdWords
