Deep dives
Make Your Email Newsletter Scrollable
To ensure your email newsletter is delivered effectively, make it scrollable. Avoid using large header images that take up the entire screen, as viewers may not realize there is more content below to scroll through. Additionally, be mindful of the amount of content in your newsletter to prevent overload. If viewers have to scroll more than three or four times on a mobile device, it may be too much. Remember, less is more in creating scrollable newsletters.
Ensure Everything in Your Newsletter is Clickable
To improve engagement, make all elements in your newsletter clickable. With the growing impact of privacy programs like Mail Privacy Protection, rely on hyperlinks, hyperlinked photos, and call-to-action buttons. Avoid giving away all the information in the email itself, as this removes the incentive to click. Instead, create curiosity and encourage clicks by directing readers to your website for more details or additional resources.
Make Your Emails More Attributable
In direct response marketing, attribution is crucial to understanding the effectiveness of your strategies. However, with upcoming changes like the Link Tracking Protection Program, click-through attribution will become more challenging. Include UTM codes and trackable links to measure click performance. To overcome potential limitations, encourage replies for major calls to action, allowing you to identify and follow up with interested individuals. Think creatively to overcome the attribution challenges posed by mail privacy protection programs.
