Connecting to Customers
Three Things To Take Away
1. Customers don’t want more email. They want more relevant email. How can we define “relevancy” for our audience?
2. Communicate on the customer’s timeline and urgency. Learn from ISC’s experience.
3. Where do we go from here? A checklist.
What Hasn’t Killed Email Yet?
Email ROI Puts Stars
In Our Eyes
New Reality: Consumers can quickly “sweep” and filter email messages they don’t find interesting.
In fact, that process is automated.
Even permission-based messages are marked as “spam.”
