Why Businesses Love Email

by | Jul 1, 2024

Today, we start a different conversation…

At EmailSmart, we’re best known as the go-to email deliverability experts - the ones you turn to when your emails are going to spam or, worse yet, not getting delivered at all.

Email Deliverability is crucial, especially with the new requirements from Google and Yahoo for bulk sending. 

Why is Deliverability Important? 

Well it’s really simple… first off, Email Deliverability is in your control.  It is not based on the provider you use to send email from.

If you have poor deliverability (a bad email reputation) your emails will go to spam if not be blocked all together. 

If you have good deliverability (a great reputation) then your emails will make it to the inbox, which gets more people reading your emails… more people clicking your links... more people spending money with your business! 

However, Email Deliverability is just one piece of the puzzle for getting the best results from your email list.

Email should be the highest converting marketing and sales channel for your business, consistently turning leads into customers and customers into repeat customers.

  • Did you know 52% of consumers made a purchase via email in 2023
  • 59% of consumers say marketing emails influence their purchase decisions
  • 80% of small and midsized businesses say that email marketing is their most important online customer retention tool
  • McKinsey & Co discovered that email is 3X more likely to convert a prospect into a customer, with a 20% higher Average Order Value (AOV) than someone just following you on social media.
  • Moreover, email has a 3800% ROI

So, how much of your business’s revenue is coming from email?

If it’s not where you’d like it to be, we can help.

Today, we are kickstarting a series of blog posts where we’ll share our powerful 3-step framework for maximizing the value and longevity of your email list, including real-life examples so you not only learn the theory but see how to put it into action.
