Tip of the week 23 - Delivering personalized emails this holiday season



The holiday season is fast approaching and it's not surprising if you find yourself too overwhelmed with all the planning. Emails, offers, promotions—there are enough things in your list to keep you busy to attract your audience this season and close more deals. 


We're here to help you make the most of your holiday email marketing efforts. What's the first and foremost thing you need to do to reach out to many customers? It's sending personalized, relevant emails in such a way that your emails are tailor-made for each of your customers. But, in a world where most of the people still believe personalization lies in addressing by names, it's important for you to stand out as a smart marketer—someone who refers to relevance as the ideal personalization. Make email 'relevancy' your powerful tool for targeting all your revenue-driving customers during these holidays.

So, why do you need to send hyper-relevant emails?


- To give enough reasons for your customers to think they've chosen the right brand.


- To come out as a unique brand that puts customers' interests first.


- To help customers get what they want during this holiday time.


- To boost your own revenue, after all, with sales closing in droves.

For an email campaign, you may think you have all the essential elements for lead conversion—a big mailing list, an attractive template design, and the most-engaging message content, but after hitting the ‘send’ button, you may not get the expected conversions. Wondering why? Here’s one of the major reasons. Many marketers miss out on sending the email campaign the right way. Did you know that you should not be

                                                          In the last post, we learned about the subject line. Today we'll be learning about the preheader.

A good preheader should act as a second subject line and convince your contacts to open the email. Now, let's learn the best way to craft a preheader.

                                                          If crafting content for emails, getting creatives done, and running email campaigns is your love, then unsubscribes are the heartbreakers.  You can save your emails from being unsubscribed/trashed by adding a proper subscription-preferences option in your emails (works best at the time of signup). Giving subscribers the option to choose what they want to receive from you and decide how often (frequency of the emails) your emails should hit their inboxes will increase the reach of your campaigns manifolds.

When a contact is marked as SPAM on Desk, I wish to do the same on CRM. When a SPAM contact is deleted, I would like it deleted from CRM. The feature looks half-baked.

I know the import is working because all the other information is imported, but the Sales Start Date field is left empty. I think it must be a format problem. The date format I am trying to import is DD/MM/YYYY. This is also how my date preferences are set up in Zoho CRM. Do I need to use a different format to import the date field?

However, it's now 2024, and in-line editing from grids is just a basic expectation.
