This past week I focused on the optimized eMail landing page and the importance of optimizing that page for the devices your customers will view it on. Looked at your expectations of enrolling into a brands SMS and eMail programs and if the experiences should be different. Also talked about the importance of the eMail “From” and how important that is when dealing with a crowed in-box. And I closed out the week on who is doing your eCRM creative and concepts.

Monday Update
The landing page your are sending your engaged eMail subscribers to is just as important as the email itself.

Is it optimized for mobile?
Does it have detailed information for conversions?
Do you know how your eMail subscribers are interacting with this page?
Are you A/B testing the landing pages for optimal conversions?

As you can see, there is just as much to do with the landing page as their is with the email. They both go hand and hand and should be viewed as one for the customer experience.

Tuesday Update
Do you enroll in a brands eMail and SMS programs expecting different messages, communications and offers?

Wednesday Update
Another important element to your email program is the “From” line. A suggestion is to include your brand name and to avoid numbers or special characters. The “From” line let’s your email subscribers can better identify your brand in a crowded inbox.
