MARKETING
Email marketing is a part of digital marketing focused on nurturing and "warming up" leads, building long-term relationships with consumers and partners, and increasing repeat sales.
But today, email alone is not enough. You need to deal with retention in general by means of connecting additional channels (push, SMS, pop-ups on the website and inside the product, messengers and chatbots). In this way, you get the maximum response by being exactly where the customer needs you.

WHAT HAS CHANGED
IN EMAIL MARKETING?
IN EMAIL MARKETING?
Email marketing, if done properly, still accounts for a significant share of revenue.
If we are talking about e-commerce, email marketing may account for 10% to 30% on thousands of orders. Conversion from email is 2−5 times higher than the average for the website. For an IT product (SaaS, marketplace, etc.), email can change the entire business model and unit economics.

However, …
Email has seen a drop in responses in#nbspthe B2C segment — Open Rate and Click Rate. You don't write letters to real people anymore. Now your inbox is filled with work emails and offers from companies.
Friends and relatives socialize using social networks and messengers.
So, we decided to take our expertise in email marketing (and we've been working with email marketing since 2008) and change the paradigm.

Email is just a means of 'transport' for retention marketing. Let's maximize the response
Email is one of the means to deliver a message to the consumer.
Other means that we use to collect leads, "warm-up", train, build relationships and sell are mobile and web push, SMS, social networks and messengers, chatbots (Facebook, Whatsapp, Telegram, Viber etc.), website pop-ups and in-app notifications, remarketing in PPC ads.
The consumer gets messages where it suits them, and thus we maximize the response.
For each channel, we customize the communication — it would be strange to send a long text to people who are used to emojis and short messages.
The most important thing in this process is to build a retention marketing strategy, define triggers, periods and frequency, and draw up a content plan.

RETENTION MARKETING STRATEGY
1
Clients base analysis to decide where to place the "traps" and "tripwires"
We decide on the best places for triggers within the LifeCycle framework by Jim Novo, author of The Drilling Down, a textbook on database marketing, RFM analysis and working with large databases.
2
Deliverability analysis and monitoring setup
We use a 7-step framework that allows you to get into the inbox and keeps all deliverability indicators in the "green zone." We also validate the existing database.
3
Analyzing lead capture and setting up active capture mechanics
We set up the correct and proactive collection of contacts using active pop-ups and other lead capturing mechanics.
4
Prioritizing the order funnels: 0 → 1 or 1 → 2
Usually, there are two main funnels for a business: turn a lead / registration into a customer and turn a customer into a repeat customer. Having worked through these funnels, the business changes its unit economics and business model, increasing LTV from the user. For example, for Sokol.ua, we increased repeat sales by 42%.
5
Determining the four types of communications
- promos or bulk messages
- triggered or event messages
- welcome series or autoresponders
- cold sales
6
Drafting a content plan,
using newsbreaks of the project

We mix promo, educational and engaging messages so that people do not unsubscribe but instead go to the next step in the funnel and buy.
7
Setting up the ready-to-use communications,
writing and repackaging content

We use available business content materials (videos, social media, and blog posts) and create new ones, if necessary. We top it up with personalization.
