Deep dives
Key Takeaway 1: Building Trust and Relationships for Conversion
One of the speakers at Litmus Live, Summer Always, emphasized the importance of building trust and relationships with customers to achieve high conversion rates. She shared that achieving a 100% conversion rate is possible over time through trust-building strategies. One tactic she mentioned was resending successful emails periodically, as people don't always remember every email they receive. This takeaway highlights the significance of establishing trust and maintaining regular communication with customers.
Key Takeaway 2: Effective Copywriting and Subject Lines
Leanna, who spoke at Litmus Live, discussed the power of effective copywriting, particularly in email subject lines. Leanna emphasized the importance of focusing on the customer and using 'you' language instead of excessive 'we' and 'us' phrasing. She also recommended using emojis strategically in subject lines to grab attention, but not as a replacement for words. Additionally, Leanna highlighted the need to ensure that emojis render correctly across different devices. These insights provide valuable guidance on creating compelling copy and subject lines for effective email marketing.
Key Takeaway 3: Optimizing Footers for Engagement and Trust
During a talk on email footers, the speaker emphasized the untapped potential of this space. The discussion encouraged considering footers as opportunities to engage customers and build trust. Suggestions included adding engaging elements like Easter eggs or discounts, testing different footer designs, and optimizing the unsubscribe process for improved trust. The importance of making social links relevant and removing those that are not actively used was also stressed. Overall, this takeaway highlights the often overlooked potential of footers and the impact they can have on enhancing the customer experience and building trust.
