			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Apparently there are many different email campaign management myths. For some reason or another, myths have been circulating and many small businesses and individuals end up avoiding the use of email campaigns. However, marketing by email is one of the most cost effective ways to find new prospects and make more sales, so it’s important to clear up these myths so your company can get started.</p>
<p>Email marketing takes too much time – One of the largest reasons that people don’t participate in running their own email campaigns is how time consuming they have been led to believe it is. But actually, with all of the tools for email campaign management today it’s quicker than it ever has been before. You’ll be able to create, manage and optimize your campaigns in no time.</p>
<p>Email marketing costs too much money – There’s no business out there that doesn’t cite saving money on expenses as an important to do. However, email marketing doesn’t have to break your budget. Many popular email service providers start their services at $10 or $15 per month. Additionally, most offer free trials that allow you to check out their services ahead of time to see if you like them and want to stick with them.</p>
<p>Email marketing is too hard to learn – As with any other kind of skill, you will need to learn through trial and error when it comes to email marketing. But that doesn’t mean that it’s overly hard or complex. It’s actually pretty easy to get a hang of once you know some basic guidelines. The more you get involved the quicker and more effectively you’ll learn email campaign management.</p>
<p>Email marketing just isn’t worth it – Yes, there’s a lot of SPAM out there and it can be hard to keep your messages out of the SPAM filters. But there’s a lot of “SPAM” in all other communication channels as well. These are all the print, TV, radio, direct mail, telemarketing and so forth messages that people receive without prompting and aren’t interesting in. So really, email marketing isn’t any different in this regard. Studies routinely show that email marketing produces the lowest cost per acquisition of a new customer or a new sale than any other form of advertising or promotion.</p>
<p>If you listen to all the bad things that people said about running email campaigns, you’d never want to become involved. But your business can effectively use email campaign management once it knows the truth. The only thing holding you back is your willingness to get on the saddle and give it a try.</p>

		<title>3 Most Important Email Marketing Statistics</title>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are many different email marketing statistics which may or may not prove to be successful for tracking the results of your emails. While there are many to consider, these 3 are the most important for managing your email campaigns and being able to improve them in the future.</p>
<p>The Open Rate – The open rate is the number of people who opened up your email. This is the most important statistic to discuss because it is also the most easily misunderstood. To begin with, the way preview panes are viewed as opens or not isn’t consistent. Also important is that open rates are based off 1×1 pixel images placed into your messages. Anybody on your list who has images turned off on their email therefore does not get counted as an open.</p>
<p>It’s useful as a comparison between your campaigns, but not really to judge how successful an individual campaign is. Clearing up this misconception will paint a clearer picture for your overall campaign success.</p>
<p>The Click Through Rate – The click through rate, or CTR, may be the most valuable of all of the email marketing statistics. Your company sends out email campaigns for a reason, usually to get somebody to visit your website and then usually take some further action. The CTR for an email tells you how many people clicked through on any of your links.</p>
<p>You can compare the effectiveness of different calls to action within the same message or in separate campaigns and you can see how many people liked your email enough to take the next step. This is crucial information that can help you convert your leads better and see much better results with all of your campaigns and communications.</p>
<p>The Conversion Rate – The conversion rate takes the idea of the click through rate one step farther. Your conversion rate is the actual percentage of people who received the email and completed the full action you wanted them to take. More than just clicking on a link, they made a purchase or they signed up for something or took any kind of quantifiable action that you requested for.</p>
<p>You may have to compute this one on your own if your sales and email systems aren’t integrated. To do this you can place tracking IDs in your links so you can see how people ended up on your page when they ended up making a purchase. In this way you can actually see what the ROI on all of your email messages were.</p>
<p>With a basic understanding of these 3 email marketing statistics you’ll be able to keep much better control over your email campaigns. Avoid using the open rate as your guiding light, because quite simply it is a flawed statistic.</p>
<p>Learn from your own mistakes and see what works better than something else. Always tweak, optimize and evolve or risk being left behind as your email campaigns flounder and stumble along.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A large number of software developers claim useful features and 100% performance guarantee of their tools but the reality is opposite to it. The selection process of email marketing software should be completed through proper planning, consultation and analysis of similar tools. Business owners select word processing, database, bulk emailer and accounting software according to their requirements. There are several companies that manufacture these software tools and a large number of companies and individuals are involved in the business of software development.</p>
<p>You cannot decide on your own that which software is good and will be able to meet your requirements. You can consult an expert because you have not used it. You can collect information about different software tools from internet and people who have used them. The price of each email marketing software tool depends on its features, functions and demand in the market. Customer reviews are another source to collect useful information about your selected bulk emailer tool. You can make decision on the basis of your information and knowledge of the product.</p>
<p>The market is full with low quality email marketing software tools therefore in the process of buying you have to be very careful. In past the trend of email marketing was not as much as it is now therefore bulk emailer tools were not given importance. But now they have become an essential part of marketing departments in our businesses. In start people used to send emails manually or through outlook express but now it is impossible to run your marketing campaigns without specially designed software tools. They organize and filter your email contacts to make the process of marketing easy and smooth.</p>
<p>Your business is everything for you therefore don’t compromise on it by selecting low quality software or free software tool. Freeware email marketing software tools provide limited features to manage and schedule emails as compare to the paid tools. You should make a fair decision to buy a bulk emailer program because there are many tools which are available on reasonable prices and with necessary features. In this world of globalization it has become necessary to market your business through online and offline methods to attract customers from all over the world. You should avoid software tools which work on the pattern of spam emails because they can bring unbeatable harm for your business.</p>
