Email Trends: 13 Email Marketing Trends Predictions for 2021

2020 SUCKED (1 Star ⭐) 2020 was a year of consolidation and regurgitation in the email industry. Companies merged, were bought, and even changed names, while the industry managed to talk about the same stuff that we were talking about 10-15 years ago. The operative words in the industry were personalization, automation, and the "New Normal."   While 2020 did suck, it quickly reminded us that pivoting our strategies was not a bad thing, and those that were quick and agile faired far better than those that just followed.  Email Marketing Trends Predictions In 2021, more of the same will happen across the industry. Companies will consolidate, and "personalization" will be a hot topic of many posts [...]

By now, you have been inundated with blog posts, webinars, and whitepapers that show all of the good email tactics you can employ in Q4 to end 2020 on a high note for revenue in your digital marketing program.

Yet there is much more to it than that, and business owners have much to be gained by both learning more about deliverability and taking steps to continuously improve it in order to improve your restaurant email marketing.

  • Why Your Senderscore Matters More Than Your Credit Score

Why Your Senderscore Matters More Than Your Credit Score

Why Does Your Senderscore Matter More Than Your Credit Score? Well, have you ever bought a house? Or a car? And your credit score was part of the equation that determined whether or not the sale would go through and at what rate?

In our world as email marketers, we have something similar to the credit score of the consumer world: We have the senderscore. The sender score can determine your sender reputation. And even though it has nothing to do with debt, it [...]

Think You’re not a Spammer? Think Again…

Are you a spammer? In recent years, we’ve heard of companies that are supposedly “too big to fail.” That notion is negotiable, but certainly, we have companies that are not too big to fail as well as not too big to spam. If you think of spammers as never-do-wells sitting in dark, dingy basement apartments trying to trick people into buying Viagra or Costa Rica, think again. And then make sure your own email marketing is legitimate and can’t be labeled as spam. Yes, you: Make sure you’re not a spammer. “But spammers, those are bad guys, right?” Sure, you’ve got your classic types of spam, like that poor Nigerian prince who can’t seem to get a [...]
