Unlocking The Power of Email Flows

If you want to take your eCommerce website to all-new heights, email marketing could be the missing piece of the puzzle. Whether you want to engage new users or energise existing customers, email marketing could hold the keys to success.

In this post, we'll look at how automated email flows could be the right solution for your business, maximising your marketing results. We'll also explain how we helped York Emporium more than double its email marketing revenue by implementing this same approach. 

Understanding Automated Email Flows

Manually following up with customers at every stage of the buying journey is time-consuming and usually impractical. Businesses that fail to engage customers at critical moments (such as after making a purchase or when they abandon items at checkout) miss out on opportunities to grow their revenue and reinforce the level of brand loyalty among their customers. 

The manual process of tracking customer interactions and sending time-sensitive emails can be an unwelcome task, especially for businesses with a small team, a particularly large customer base, or a mix of both! This can result in customers receiving inconsistent levels of communication, which can lead to missed opportunities for businesses to reconnect with customers and encourage repeat purchases.

Automated email flows offer a simple solution to these challenges by allowing businesses to set up trigger-based emails that are sent automatically based on specific customer actions. For example, welcome emails can be sent to new customers or mailing list subscribers, while follow-up emails can target users who have abandoned items at checkout.

This automated approach ensures that businesses maintain consistent communication with their customers without needing to do all of the legwork themselves, aside from the initial set-up. Automated email flows can nurture leads, encourage repeat purchases, and even recover lost sales – this provides a personalised experience that improves customer satisfaction and encourages a greater sense of brand loyalty.

Case Study: York Emporium

With York Emporium, we initially managed just their online advertising, but it quickly became clear that email marketing would be an area where we could make huge gains in a relatively short period of time. So when it came time for us to renew our contract, we expanded our recurring activity to include a project to build automated email flows. 

In the twelve months since we started managing York Emporium's email marketing, we've seen a 285% year-on-year increase in revenue generated from our automated email flows.

Understanding Your Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

To measure the success of your email flows against your goals, you'll need to track specific KPIs. By crafting your email content and timings with your overall business objectives and KPIs, you can continually refine your approach to boost engagement, conversions, and ROI.

Typical KPIs for email marketing include:

Open Rate

The percentage of recipients who open an email, which indicates the effectiveness of your subject lines and the interest level of your subscribers.

Click-Through Rate (CTR)

The percentage of recipients who clicked on one or more links contained in an email, reflecting the relevance and appeal of your content and CTAs.

Conversion Rate

The percentage of recipients who completed a desired action after clicking on a link in your email, such as making a purchase or completing a form.

Unsubscribe Rate

The percentage of recipients who opt-out of your email list after receiving an email, which can indicate the relevance and frequency of your communications.

By crafting your email content and timings with your overall business objectives and KPIs, you can continually refine your approach to boost engagement, conversions, and ROI.
