Targeted Messaging


The 3-Second Rule


Steps in Targeted Messaging

Step 1: Understand Motivation Step 2: Optimize Relevance Step 3: Optimize Layout Step 4: Ensure Compliance Step 5: Test

Checklist


Step 1: Understand Motivation

Value Proposition: Is it meaningful? From Line: Who is it from? Subject Line: Does it communicate value in first 35 characters? Preview: How does it look?


Value Prop: Is it meaningful to me?


Who is it from? What is this about?

80% of email recipients open their inbox, read the“from” line and then the “subject” line, and thendelete. Then, they read the remaining emails in theirinbox. Digital Impact Study


Subject Line Guiding Principles

1. Get to the point. Communicate value to recipient in first 35characters.

2. Engage. Provide a sense of urgency and prompt them to open the e-mail immediately.

3. Be relevant. Speak to the needs and interests of your recipients asindividual people.

4. Build trust. Do not over promise or mislead. This can destroy trustand damage your brand.


Step 2: Optimize Relevance

Personalize: Is it appropriate? Imagery: Does it engage or repel? Tone: Does it reduce anxiety?


How does it look?


How does it look? Text / Personalized Email


Who is it from? What is this about?


Personalization – Build the Relationship


Good Copywriting Tips

Write for the customer, not for yourself. Get to the point. Use less than 100 words. Place primary call-to-action links above the fold. Write short sentences: easy to scan, punchier, more active. Use benefit-oriented subheads. Use bullets to capture value proposition. “So-What?” Use this repeatedly to help you get to the real message. Use a P.S. to call attention to urgency of offer.

Step 3: Optimize Layout

Images Off: Can you still identify value prop? Eye Path: Where does your eye go with images on? Call-to-Action: Is it clear and accessible?


Red X Challenge


Reality – Images Off

Squint Test: Close your eyes,open, and immediatelyidentify first thing you seeabove the fold. Is it the valueprop?

Start to identify where theeye drifts positively andnegatively to optimize layout.


Test Your Call-to-Action (CTA)


APAC Test email 1


APAC Test email 2


Step 4: Insure Compliance

Privacy Policy: Does the email adhere to your private policy? Compliance: Is the email brand complaint?


Step 5: Test

No absolutes – testing yields best optimization results.


No substitute for testing


Testing Answers Questions

Is the messaging easy to understand? Is the call to action more compelling? What are barriers for prospects to convert to a lead? Are we asking for too much information? Do prospects understand the offer and find it valuable? Which topics resonates the best with this segment? Which layout drives the highest conversion? Which images create higher levels of engagement?

What lead nurturing is NOT> Sending out an e-newsletter on a semi regular basis> Randomly calling leads every few weeks to see if they’ll buy> Blasting entire database with a new case study> Sending out a piece of content that promotes company’s products and services and does
