Keys to create an effective newsletter in Spain
- Define the objective and style of the newsletter, the minimum and maximum content for each.
- Try to limit the promotional content to 10%, as 90% of Internet queries are of an informative nature.
- Creativity. Both in content and design, to arouse the user’s curiosity every time he/she opens a newsletter.
- Keep the design clean and easy to understand.
- Make it easy to unsubscribe, if you want to keep a number of users really interested and engaged to what the company offers and not to mark their mail as SPAM. TIP: It is advisable to use bold capital letters, as it speeds up the process so that the user does not have to look for the unsubscribe button in the footer.
- Include videos and interactive formats. Video is the most consumed content on the Internet, so emails with “video” or “link to video” in the subject line are more likely to be opened.
- Attractive subject line that catches the user’s attention and is concise.
- Be different and unique. Let your readers perceive a difference with other related publications from other companies and also from other channels your company may have.
- Use content created by third parties, making it a showcase for influencers and creators in your sector with whom you can collaborate and generate new ideas with different voices.
- Remember the CTA. When sending a newsletter, the goal is not always a final sale. It can be to increase traffic to your website, registrations on your website or your e-commerce, as well as to get more subscribers to your social networks. That is why it is important to have an effective CTA or call to action, that is, that button with a hyperlink that directs the user to another page where they will perform the action.
- Think about mobiles, as it is very likely that your newsletter will be opened from one, so just like the website, it is important that the design of the newsletter is responsive.
