Listeners Question

Do you have any tips for writing that will increase the number of clicks in an email?

Jennifer Macdonald-Nethercott – Strath Communications

Kennedy: One of the biggest things with writing emails is to create the content in such a way that it compels people to click a link in the actual email itself. A lot of people think it’s enough to create content that sounds good and tells a lovely story. Instead, you need to write so that the whole email is leading up to the point of them wanting more information and clicking that link. Also, realise that you’re not just getting people to click links, you’re compelling them to want to learn more, or watch a video, or to sign up to something.

Rob: Don’t just put a link in the email and expect people to click it, instead put a few different links in there and use different link types. We actually chatted about this in a previous episode if you need some ideas.
