Tip of the Week 11 - Keep the "from address" familiar for it clicks well with your audience.



Businesses thrive on customer engagement. Your networking skills will help you collect leads and build a subscriber list, but keeping them engaged is a different story; it needs a mix of both hard work and smart work. A lot goes into creating an email campaign that we often overlook the simplest of things that actually make a difference, one such being the "from address". 

 

Getting your subscribers to open your emails take you halfway through your goal, and personalizing "from address" greatly contributes to this success. Let's say, you are meeting someone at a conference and you collect their email address to follow up post the event. It is most likely that they open the email if it is directly from you than from a generic ID like event@....com/sales@....com.

 

Here are some of the "from address" best practices that you can consider while sending out your next email:

 

  1. Use a known sender name, it could be an individual's name or your company/brand name depending on the purpose of communication. 
  2. Include a sender name that matches the sender address. 
  3. Do not send emails from "no-reply" addresses for that's a big put-off.
  4. Refrain from using group email addresses, because that will give an impression that it is a random mass mailer. 

 

And here are ways in which you can use Zoho Campaigns to personalize your "from address":

 

1. CRM data personalization: A salesperson becomes the first point of contact for any lead. Using CRM merge tags, you can pull details of the salesperson in touch with a particular lead or contact, and emails that go to those leads will go from their respective sales contact. 

2. Dynamic sender address: You can associate an individual with a subscriber while creating a mailing list. Then you can send a single campaign that will go out to subscribers from individuals they are mapped to.





Cheers,
Vaijayanthi N. 

P.S. Please do give our  Dynamic sender address and  CRM merge tag features a shot, and share your experience with us.

      • Tip of the week 03 - Sending emails in batches

        Today's marketers not only want their email marketing to be efficient, but also smart. For an email campaign, you may think you have all the essential elements for lead conversion—a big mailing list, an attractive template design, and the most-engaging message content, but after hitting the ‘send’ button, you may not get the expected conversions. Wondering why? Here’s one of the major reasons. Many marketers miss out on sending the email campaign the right way. Did you know that you should not be

      • Tip of the week 04 - Know about your recipients' 'prime open time.'

        In today's market, the importance of customer behavior is astounding, with a vast amount of research and resources going into finding how customers make decisions. The process of persuading your customers to open your email and click on your call-to-action becomes easy when you understand the psychology behind their behavioral traits. Time to turn into a psychologist! Let's get to the basics—you want your emails to resonate well with your recipients. So, what's the primary thing involved here? It's

        Hi email champs,  As email marketers, we find great lessons in each other's works—be it the subject lines that worked good, the design that was received well, or the CTA that had the maximum clicks. Email marketing encompasses a wide variety of topics spanning everything from creation and design to development and deliverability.  Here's when we from the Zoho Campaigns team found the need to build an email marketing community comprising of seasoned marketers and email geeks who can help each other

      • Email Deliverability Tip #3: Seal the deal with the preheader

        In the last post, we learned about the subject line. Today we'll be learning about the preheader. A preheader is the short text that follows the subject line in an email. The preheader is designed to hint at what your email message is all about. A good preheader should act as a second subject line and convince your contacts to open the email. Now, let's learn the best way to craft a preheader. Your subject line and preheader should work together and accurately convey the gist of your email. Keep

      • Tip of the week 15 - Add subscription-preferences option. Drive more engagement.

        If crafting content for emails, getting creatives done, and running email campaigns is your love, then unsubscribes are the heartbreakers.  You can save your emails from being unsubscribed/trashed by adding a proper subscription-preferences option in your emails (works best at the time of signup). Giving subscribers the option to choose what they want to receive from you and decide how often (frequency of the emails) your emails should hit their inboxes will increase the reach of your campaigns manifolds.
