Over time it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s become a very ineffective way to reach our audience.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So why has this powerful medium which could have been (and in some cases, is) cleverly used to increase consumers\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 knowledge as well as spread brand messages become an irksome problem for both consumers and businesses?<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Face of Interruptive Email Marketing<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>From weight loss tips to cures for baldness, from credit cards to pre-approved loans, most inboxes seem to be filled with unsolicited emails aka spam mails. The joke goes that whenever you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re feeling depressed, just open your inbox; you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll find that<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>9 banks are offering you interest-free loans.<\/li>\n<li>A computer has chosen you as the lucky winner of a $3,000,000 contest you didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t enter.<\/li>\n<li>6 recruiters have found the dream job for you.<\/li>\n<li>You have 15 \u00e2\u20ac\u0153most suitable\u00e2\u20ac\u009d matches across 3 dating sites.<\/li>\n<li>Travel to exotic locations is just around the corner as per your horoscope.<\/li>\n<li>3 universities are conferring degrees in random subjects on you.<\/li>\n<li>Anna, Liz, Vanessa and about 50 other girls are feeling lonely and want to meet you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What more do you want from life?<\/p>\n<p>That said, there are a few authentic and genuine businesses that don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t resort to spammy tactics and yet their emails end up in the trash. That could be because they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re promoting stuff you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want. For example, Regus is an office space provider. Boring business, more boring emails. I tried to pay a modicum of attention but they lost me at \u00e2\u20ac\u0153chasing opportunities, meeting customers\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14382\" src=\"https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/regus.png\" alt=\"regus\" width=\"601\" height=\"517\" border=\"1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/regus.png 601w, https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/regus-300x258.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 601px) 100vw, 601px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Or, if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve signed up for their services, they might be hitting you with some uninspiring welcome mails.

Why is it that emails have become such an annoyance? To get to the root of problem, a few of my friends got together and came up with small contests \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Who gets the most boring emails? Who gets the highest number of unsolicited emails? Who has the cleanest inbox and who has the most junk-filled one?<\/p>\n<p>We observed a few underlying patterns in current email marketing campaigns: they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re too personalized for comfort, they have nothing new to offer, or they are bland beyond redemption. The lessons are:<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Stop Overdoing \u00e2\u20ac\u0153You\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Many emails come with personalized subject lines such as \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Jack, we have this offer just for you,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Tracy, you will absolutely love these articles,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and so on. The fact that some businesses get on first name basis with you can be a little unsettling to many. Also badly written \u00e2\u20ac\u0153you\u00e2\u20ac\u009d centered emails somehow end up looking like people-pleasers and diminish the company\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s value.<\/p>\n<p>While <a href=\"http:\/\/www.towerdata.com\/blog\/3-fascinating-ways-conversion-depends-on-personalization\">personalization<\/a> is an increasingly popular practice to make your customer feel privileged (almost as if they were THE ONE customer the organization was looking for), an impishly honest welcome email can probably help you send across the message that lots of people trust you, have already chosen your products and continue to be delighted by them. For instance, take a look at this email created (for representation only) with GetResponse\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.getresponse.com\/features\/email-creator.html\">email creator<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14385\" src=\"https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/magicalspa.png\" alt=\"magicalspa\" width=\"500\" height=\"582\" border=\"1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/magicalspa.png 500w, https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/magicalspa-258x300.png 258w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>(My apologies if there is a real Magical Spa anywhere.) See how the text grabs attention with a snappy headline (which could double up as a subject line), but at the same time subtly shows off a strong customer base. And as is regular practice with onboarding emails, it talks about the various services on offer and includes the customary first-time discount\/freebie. Nothing personal about that.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Find your Purple Cow<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14386\" src=\"https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/moo.png\" alt=\"moo\" width=\"443\" height=\"428\" border=\"1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/moo.png 443w, https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/moo-300x290.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 443px) 100vw, 443px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Seth Godin\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Purple-Cow-New-Edition-Remarkable-Includes\/dp\/1591843170\"><em>Purple Cow<\/em><\/a> has sold more than half a million copies, much to the chagrin of brown jerseys that can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t seem to keep up. But there is much truth in what Seth says. Every business has to find its purple cow. So what could be the purple cow in email marketing? What could differentiate you from the hundreds of unsolicited mails your customers receive every day?<\/p>\n<p>Consider the example above \u00e2\u20ac\u201c the dummy for a spa I created using GetResponse. Now there were hundreds of templates in there, but this one suited the business profile aptly. Most spa boutiques use such images, so it was a safe bet. However, after some mulling over, I realized that a real email marketing \u00e2\u20ac\u0153strategy\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and the visual didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t really belong with each other. If I wanted to \u00e2\u20ac\u0153reinvent\u00e2\u20ac\u009d visual email marketing, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d have to do something radically different, something akin to a purple (or framboise) cow!<\/p>\n<p>So I said goodbye to all those overused pictures of Thai massuese, candles, stones, flowers, oils and backless women and came up with this really cool but beautiful email, breaking the clutter and disrupting the usual \u00e2\u20ac\u201c in other words, reinventing visual email marketing.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14384\" src=\"https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/gmail.png\" alt=\"gmail\" width=\"489\" height=\"569\" border=\"1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/gmail.png 489w, https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/gmail-258x300.png 258w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 489px) 100vw, 489px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Okay, I did use candles and flowers, but you get the idea.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Get a Face \/ Mascot<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The last resort for any company to evolve <strong>from bland to bold<\/strong> is to have a mascot and use it unabashedly in all emails. When you have a nice and smiling mascot, who\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s sassy and funny too, there is more chance your audience will open and read mails, if for nothing else but see what your clever mascot has to say. The welcome mail from eFrog Themes signs off with a funny line: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153See you in the pond!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s another piece of genius (from the on-page conversion point of view) on their <a href=\"http:\/\/www.efrogthemes.com\/\">website<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14383\" src=\"https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frog.png\" alt=\"frog\" width=\"611\" height=\"291\" border=\"1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frog.png 611w, https:\/\/rosalindgardner.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/frog-300x143.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 611px) 100vw, 611px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>One last example: There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s nothing not to love about the stickman figures of Dropbox.
