You can read more about our latest Facebook App on our Benchmark Blog, but I'll break it down here for you: The application can be quickly integrated into your Facebook account and feeds directly to your Benchmark contact lists. Which lists? Why, the ones you choose to add to, of course. You can have the addresses be added to the subscription lists you already have or create a new list specifically for your Facebook Fans.

Converting your email strategy into an actionable plan requires diligence and commitment. The rewards, though nerve-wracking, are worth it. From our guest blogger and veteran email marketing and loyalty consultant Jordie van Rijn's Things to Consider when Creating an Email Calendar: "Frequency For your calendar, it is also important to know your email frequency. If you have a higher frequency, you have the opportunity to go wider in the number of subjects to touch or deeper with specialized emailings than you would with a lower frequency. Again, there are no laws carved in stone, but you do have to consider your resources. How many messages are you able to create? Remember: a weekly email is 52 emailings per year. You don't want to bore or annoy people with too high a frequency, but you also don't want them to forget you - and you do want to be there once they're ready to convert. Buying Cycles Some industries have very clear buying cycles. This is pretty obvious for travel, garden, skiing and sunglasses. But other industries have their own high sales and low sales periods. Basically you want to be there in the orientation phase to get into the considered set and be there in the buying phase to close the deal. Make sure you intensify the list growth before and during those periods and consider increasing the frequency and changing the types of messages according to the buying cycle. Check your buying cycle, find the high and low sales periods and mark them on your calendar." |
