Understanding the Power of Email Marketing Relationships
The holiday season is finally here! At home, ‘tis the season for gingerbread, fireworks, gift-wrapping and hayrides. For small businesses, however, this time is the slow season, the time used to meet year-end budget goals and plan upcoming projects for the new year.
For small businesses, timing is everything and developing strong bonds with clients is essential to your success. Your clients are your biggest asset as a business owner. By building trust with them, you are creating long-term relationships that can pay off in several ways but this must be done in a timely fashion. Waiting too long to check in with that family from March could cost you a referral or returning customer by the end of the year.
Maintaining Professional Relationships in 2020
Maintaining relationships is critical to sales because knowing your customers’ wants and needs puts you one step ahead at meeting their expectations. But even with all the knowledge and experience, it is difficult to stay in contact with anyone while focusing your attention on building the business of your dreams.
The number one reason business owners don’t reach out to their networks regularly is because they just don’t have the time. With thousands of different contacts on your desk or scattered about your inbox, it can be downright overwhelming just to begin and we get that.

Social Media is the Foundation for Email Marketing
Today, many online relationships begin on social networking sites like LinkedIn or Twitter. From marketing to mingling, each social network offers its own strengths. Online engagement allows people to get to know you which builds trust, strengthens relationships with returning customers and gives folks the ability to share your content, effortlessly putting you in front of their audience.
Look at who likes your content, look at what people are saying. Don’t hesitate to send a direct message to someone who seems on the fence about it. This could be a great opportunity to add a new subscriber to your email marketing campaign or even better, book a job.
