Social Mobile Email Web
4 Cornerstones of Cross-Channel Marketing
Website
• Where buyers engage first• Enables access to content• Promotes subscription
Website
Unlike email inboxes, where most people are accustomed to abundant marketing messages, customers still consider their phones a personal and highly valued space.
Take every opportunity to connect with new customers via mobile, relating to them in the spaces where your brand already has visibility.
• In the inbox. • In the mail. • In the store. • On your website. • On social networks. • In your CRM.
Once a subscriber has opted in to receive your text and push messages, you don’t want to wear out the welcome mat—or go radio silent. Just as you would welcome email subscribers with a series of welcome emails, your mobile messaging strategy should help your new subscribers get to know you, and it can take anywhere from 10 days to two months, depending on your goals.
Remember that subscribers expect communications that speak directly to their behaviors, preferences, and history with your brand. As you welcome your new subscribers, keep in mind your targeting criteria (like previous shopping experiences) to make your welcome messages valuable from the start.
Customers who interact with your brand through mobile-specific channels are among your most engaged.
• Send dynamic coupon codes. • Promote your app. • Ask mobile subscribers to join your email database. • Promote your brand’s social media accounts.• Tie in current events. • Set up a keyword response program.• Send a countdown. • Take a vote. • Send a data-triggered message. • Enhance SMS with APIs.
The more data you collect about your mobile subscribers, the more your mobile strategy will become increasingly personalized and less “batch and blast.”
• Offer important content through mobile.• Incentivize subscribers to reengage.• Incentivize them immediately post-transaction.• Use mobile messaging to follow up after
person meetings
Accumulating thousands of fans and followers does not mean you have a social media strategy!
To monetize social media, brands must develop a plan to convert fans & followers to email subscribers.
