You might be surprised by this fact, but email marketing has been around since before the introduction of the internet. Yeah, in fact, the very first marketing email was sent in 1978 by none other than Gary “The Father of Spam” Thuerk, Marketing Manager of Digital Equipment Corp. Gary used email via Arpanet (basically the forerunner to the internet) to promote their new DEC machines to 400 recipients. The email blast resulted in $13 million in sales. And email marketing has been a critical tool in every marketer’s tool bag ever since.
But just like with any medium of marketing, there will be marketers who exploit it and abuse it. Those who care more about open rates and click-through rates than they do about the actual people receiving their emails. And when they do this, they make the rest of us look bad.
Ultimately, the purpose of this course is to teach you how to use email marketing appropriately and responsibly so that you’re only sending emails to people who want your emails, who sign up to receive them.
This course is a great fit for beginners just getting started and intermediate marketers tired of sending emails that don’t get opened, don’t get clicked on, or get recipients to unsubscribe or mark them as spam.
Here you’ll learn the inbound approach to email marketing. We’ll cover what email marketing is, how to keep it inboundy, benefits of email marketing, how to grow your email contact database, and the different types of emails you can send to recipients (that they actually want to open).
By the end of this course, you’ll be an inbound email marketing padawan. Not quite a Jedi master (that’s for a later course), but well on your way to saving the universe from awful emails nobody ever wants to open or read.
