Loyalty email marketing describes campaigns with the goal of retaining and re-engaging current customers. This is done by rewarding them for past interactions and brand loyalty.
There are a variety of reasons why brands choose to conduct loyalty email marketing. For example:
It helps to build brand reputation. By sending loyalty emails, you’ll be known for valuing existing customers and providing perks for loyalty.
It can boost company growth. It’s significantly more efficient to retain existing customers than to discover and steward new ones. With loyalty email marketing, you can remain relevant for existing customers and express your appreciation to retain them as you grow your list.
It can increase conversions. Rather than customers investing in your offerings once or twice, you can re-engage them with new opportunities to continue their purchases going forward.
However, this isn’t as simple as sending product updates to past customers. Let’s look at a few strategies that your team can use to send more effective loyalty emails.
When it comes to sending loyalty emails, the goal is to reflect the customer’s past interactions while encouraging them to return going forward. Here are a few strategies to do so:
Send thank-you emails. As soon as a customer purchases your offerings, follow-up with a thank you email expressing gratitude for their patronage.
Provide perks for top customers. For customers that have regularly supported your brand, provide perks and incentives for future engagement. Discount codes and early previews work great for this!
Avoid sending generic emails. Base your emails on past data about that client, personalizing it by reflecting the existing relationship.
Get feedback from loyal customers. Consider sending surveys and soliciting feedback to continue improving your email offerings going forward. What do they want to hear from you and how often?
Maintaining an existing relationship with a customer requires a strong campaign strategy. That’s where the team at AccuData can help.
Our loyalty email marketing solutions are designed to maintain your database over time, ensuring that most accurate, up-to-date information is available. Then, in addition to creating campaigns based on this data, we can manage them over time to continue ongoing success.
