Follow on Google News | Email Advertising is Getting More DifficultFor many online New Jersey marketing companies, the biggest problem is email advertising deliverability.
By: Britain O'Connor For many online New Jersey marketing companies, the biggest problem is email advertising deliverability. Email advertising is being filtered so heavily today that often less than 20% of a large mailing list gets delivered. However, there are a few ways you can improve your email deliverability. One such way is to run it through a spam checker before sending it out. The best email advertising programs have built in systems that give you spam scores before sending your email out. So, for example, let's your email scores higher than a 1 on a 5 point scale, you should probably revise your email. Also, a business totally dependent upon email advertising is not a very solid business. Businesses need a database that has not only names and email addresses, but physical mailing addresses as well. That way, if something apocalyptic ever happened in the world of email or the internet, they could just start using direct mail and still be in business. Many ISP's now monitor email delivery rates, bounce rates, and even open rates. They use readily available data, and if a given ISP or third party list host has a dismal record, they may block all emails from that source. If ISPs are blocking sources that send out alot of emails that have very poor open rates, some online marketers may have to move to a different outlet. For example, a business could start marketing through various social networking sites, such as Facebook, Twitter, or MySpace, and even build a larger email database. Businesses could use these social networking sites in much the same way that email is used. They can send direct communication messages with product/service offers, discounts, value deals, etc. And, since social networking sites are free to use, businesses will save money. # # # BOC Partners, Inc. is a privately held marketing company located at 1030 South Ave West, Westfield, NJ.
