Guide your customers’ journey with expertly crafted email marketing campaigns.

Email marketing is a powerful tool for connecting with your customers. With one of the highest conversion rates of all marketing channels and an impressive ROI — we’re talking 36x return versus spend 1 — email marketing campaigns should be front and center in your integrated marketing strategy.

From monthly newsletters to onboarding journeys to limited time offers, email marketing offers you numerous ways to build brand loyalty and raise awareness — all while providing value to your subscribers. When you partner with a marketing agency like Design At Work, we help you tackle each step of the process while keeping high-value content at the forefront.

How we design effective email marketing campaigns.

From the first step to the last, email campaign design involves several moving parts.

  • Strategy. First, you’ll need to define your goals. These will provide a clear direction for the creative content development. For example, a monthly newsletter can be used to highlight company achievements, share industry insights and keep your brand top of mind.
  • List building. Next up, who are you sending the email to? While it might be tempting to send every message to everyone on your list, it’s important to send high-value content to your subscribers to keep them engaged.
  • Copywriting. Now that you have identified your goal and audience, it’s time to focus on content creation. What is the overall message that is being shared? You’ll want to share that message in a way that aligns with your company’s brand voice and campaign goals.
  • Design. Next up, what will the email look like? Effective campaign design reinforces the message. It creates visual hierarchy to help readers process information, guiding their attention from the highest priority elements through supporting content.
  • Landing pages. Where will your customers go after they open your email? Ideally, your website and emails are a powerful gateway to your site. Landing pages, the specific webpages linked within an email, are the critical last step in an email campaign.
  • Analytics. Once you’ve put in all the hard work, you want to see if it paid off. Reviewing campaign analytics helps you assess how successful your campaign was, where to improve and how to continue building off the successes across all platforms.

Email marketing automation is your friend.

Automation helps you reach the right people at the right time — with the right message. While it takes more time up front to map out your user journey, segment your mailing list and set up the automations, the results pay off.

By freeing up your team’s resources so they can focus on everything else, they also provide a positive experience for your customers. The outcome? A win-win for your team and your audience.
