Email Marketing vs. Social Media: Which is Better?

By Kelly Forst December 2, 2020 TLDR: Instead of focusing on which is better, learn how to combine the power of email and social media for a powerful marketing strategy. Email marketing vs. social media. “Email marketing is dead.” “That social channel is old news.” How many times have you heard phrases like this, pitting tried and true marketing channels against each other like gladiators gone to war? I know my answer: too many to count.  So called ‘experts’ have a bad habit of killing off marketing channels that have been around a while in favor of the ‘latest and greatest’ tactics and tools.  But there’s a reason those older channels have been around so long. They work.  This was the narrative that came on the scene when social media was just gaini...

Drive More Referrals with the New Marketing Funnel

By Kelly Forst December 7, 2020 Small business marketing expert John Jantsch of Duct Tape Marketing joins The FWD: Thinking Show to discuss the Marketing Hourglass™ and how small businesses can apply it to their business.

But as he went on, his meaning became more clear. “We need to organize our buyers’ behavior and create content that addresses that behavior.” Jantsch created the concept of The Marketing Hourglass™ to explain how marketers can organize their buyers’ behavior in a way ...

The 10 Best Ways to Use Landing Pages

By Sean Tinney December 9, 2020 You don’t have to be the greatest marketer in the world to promote your product or service. In fact, many of our customers at AWeber are business owners just starting out by selling on marketplaces like Etsy or Amazon.

They want more people to know about their business.  And while it can sound like a big task, increasing brand awareness doesn’t have to be difficult.

How to Get Better Open Rates with Email Preheaders

By Sean Tinney December 14, 2020 Want more of your subscribers to read your emails? Then you must pay attention to your email preheader. Less than three seconds.

Include an email preheader in each message you send.  When viewing a message in your inbox, an email preheader — also known as the Johnson Box or preview text — is a snippet of text shown next to or underneath the subject line. The email preheader length will vary by device and which Internet Service Provider (ISP) like Gmail or Yahoo! subscribers use. However they are typically between 50 to 100 charac...

By Sean Tinney December 23, 2020 Want to improve your email open rates? Here are 6 subject line mistakes to avoid and how you can fix them to improve your email engagement. Advertising legend David Ogilvy once said, “Five times as many people read the headline as read the body copy. When you have written your headline, you have spent eighty cents out of your dollar.” Like a headline for a blog post or news article, the subject line for your email needs to capture people’s attention and convince them to open your message.
