What’s happens when you hit the “Send” button?

Do you get dozens of readers emailing back to say “thanks, you’re one of the good ones”?

Does your analytics dashboard light up with skyrocketing open and click-through rates?

And above all, do prospects and customers take one look at your emails and reach for their wallets?

Or…

Do you get the “brick wall” treatment? (Except in this case, the brick wall is more responsive.)

Your emails get deleted and those precious few opened only delay their journey to the trash by a few seconds.

It’s my job to make your emails an inbox favourite.

Don’t be evil boring

 For a long time, Google’s motto was “don’t be evil”. Anyone writing emails should adopt a similar principle: don’t be boring.

Yet, it’s the cardinal sin of so many emails, as you see in your inbox every day. Business owners (and email copywriters, who should know better) waffle on about what they want to talk about, ignoring the interests or motivations of their audience.

When you do that, you’re just building that wall, brick by brick.

The #1 thing to remember: your emails are going to people, not businesses. And people want to hear from other people. Jargon-laden missives that sound like they were issued forth by the Duke of Hamilton get binned every time.

Writing response-grabbing email copy is both a science and an art, but there are basics anyone can follow to write what I call a “Minimum Effective Email”.

3 things top emails do (and one even more important thing)

When you write a Minimum Effective Email that taps into what your readers feel or deal with, you kick a goal.

 A single email is like a single goal: by itself, it doesn’t win many games. But if you keep sending the right emails… 

1. You build trust with your audience
2. You demonstrate that you’re the expert
3. And you put yourself in the front of their minds

Engagement is good. Trust and credibility are great. But ultimately, what top-shelf email marketing delivers is the kind of sales and customers you’ve been chasing.

Those are the emails I write.
