Bulk email advertising is often shunned by advertising agencies. They do not think of junk mail with large headlines and outrageous promises as advertising. Ironically, people who use opt in email marketing campaigns know exactly what they are doing. Almost always, sales from a bulk email ad or mailing can be measured to the dollar. An industry that boasts $100 billion per year, targeted email campaigns works better than ad agencies are willing to admit.
Bulk email using opt in email campaigns is most often used by publishers in search of subscriptions, catalog houses as well as record and book clubs. Unfortunately, optin is also where you find scams and swindlers. Even so, the bulk of the trade is reputable. Bulk email can be used for certain products that are not marketable any other way or as a compliment to your already existing campaign. Whenever possible, use incentives like giveaways or sweepstakes. For many, these offers are irresistible and often lead to a sale. The key in bulk email is to constantly evaluate how well your present strategy is working and fine tune your approach. You can evaluate this medium with precision because there are no other factors in your marketing mix. Headlines are even more important in bulk email than in regular print advertising. Again, your headline should promise your strongest and most distinct benefit. Do not be afraid to use testimonials; they will increase your credibility and sales. Keep your copy simple or easy to read. You can not afford to loose sales to tricky vocabulary or hard-to-read ads. Our final tip is to create urgency. Let people know that it is now or never with words like limited time or limited edition
