Why mailing is a great strategy for small business

You are probably subscribed to an email marketing list. Maybe it is your favorite store, influencer, or school, but have you ever wondered why these figures use mailing systems to keep in touch with their following?


Mailing is one of the most sustainable ways to engage with your target audience. Some of its benefits are:


  • It increases brand awareness and strengthens brand loyalty. Being constantly present in your client's or potential client's inbox makes it easier for them to remember you and actually engage with your brand.


  • It is cost-effective. Most mailing platforms are affordable or free if you have a small contact list. We recommend Mailchimp.


  • You can measure what works. Most mailing platforms offer tracking options that allow you to understand what content is actually being clicked.


And now you know the benefits of applying an email marketing strategy to your business, but how can you get your followers to sign up?


Here are some tips:


  • Offer freebies. The most important rule about freebies is that they must be something that your followers actually want. If you are not sure what to offer, ask them directly thru social media — polls and questions on Instagram are awesome for this.

Remember that freebies are not supposed to cost you — unless you want to offer discounts — if that's not the case, you already have valuable information that you provide for free on social media; create e-books, templates, quizzes, or whatever that you have available.

  • Remind them about it. Imagine that your mailing list is a new product people need to be exposed to for them to want it. Remind your followers about the benefits of being on your mailing list, and don't forget that the signup page must be easy to find and submit.
