What are the Key Steps in an Email Strategy Based on Marketing Automation?

Step 1. Setting Your Objectives 

  • Determine your business objectives 
  • Selection of KPIs to measure  

We discuss together the specific objectives you wish to achieve with your automation strategy. These objectives must be measurable and aligned with the overall vision of the company. 

You can choose from several goals depending on your requirements:  

  • NEW CUSTOMERS: Generate more contacts, prospects, and customers; qualify leads and prioritize your prospects; segment your prospects by behaviors and interests. 
  • PRODUCTIVITY: Automatically manage all your email marketing campaigns; automatically personalize your communications; use the necessary tools to capture leads; create performance reports to track your ROI in real time. 
  • GROWTH: Move your prospects along the sales funnel, reactivate abandoned carts, generate additional sales and more revenue 
  • LOYALTY: Retain your customers 

We then define the key performance indicators (KPIs), that will allow us to measure the achievement of your objectives. For example: opening rate, number of qualified leads, conversion rate, repurchase rate, etc. 

Step 2. Audience Segmentation 

  • Creation of your database 
  • Segmentation of your contacts 

If you don't already have a customer database, now's the time to create one for collecting e-mails, via: 

  • Newsletters sign-ups 
  • White paper or other documents downloads   
  • Order history  
  • Hubspot  
  • Social media, etc.  

The objective is to collect information about visitors and integrate them into your database. 

Then, we analyze your contact database and segment it based on relevant criteria, such as online behavior, interests, and preferences. This allows us to personalize the messages broadcast and optimize targeting, depending on the stage your prospect is at in the sales funnel.

Step 3. Content Creation 

  • The creation of personalized content 
  • Phase-based content determination 

To capture the attention of customers, we develop attractive and relevant content, adapted to each segment of your audience. Several methods can be used and combined for better performance: 

  • Use of clear and engaging CTAs (calls to action) to encourage prospects to interact with your messages. 
  • Creation of attractive content, in varying the formats. 
  • Use of lead capture forms. 
  • Development of optimized landing pages and relevant calls to action. 

The content and formats can vary depending on the stage your prospect is at (awareness, consideration, conversion, loyalty). Their needs will not be the same depending on whether they are in a "passive" information phase or in a purchasing comparison phase. 

You can opt to send personalized offers, product recommendations, incentive messages or special discounts to trigger purchases.

Step 4. Scenario Creation and Lead Scoring 

  • Scenario Development 
  • Determination of Lead Scoring 

Once the content is created, we configure automation scenarios based on user actions or specific trigger events: 

  • Sending a second e-mail in case of no opening. 
  • Sending an email every week or following up on a given action, such as a product page view, abandoned shopping cart, or form filling. 
  • Moving to the next step based on the interaction made or the score already obtained. 

We can help you automate repetitive tasks that are based on predefined conditions. Our scenarios are programmed from an entry point that segmented your contacts and aims to drive them to perform a specific action. 

We assign a score to each of your contacts, this lead scoring is based on the interaction made. The more engaging it is, the higher the number of points generated will be. Once the score has reached a certain defined threshold, we consider that the lead is ready to be contacted to move to the conversion stage.

To further optimize their opening rate, we create emails adapted to different formats and email software. We incorporate a responsive design approach so that they can be perfectly viewed on all types of devices. 

Step 5. Performance Tracking and Analysis 

  • Phase-by-Phase Analysis of Results 
  • Identifying optimization measures 

The final step involves measuring the performance of your automation strategy and analyzing the data to make informed decisions. We use this data, collecting results for each scenario, phase and e-mail, to determine : 

  • The effectiveness of actions: we track KPIs such as the email opening rate, click-through rate, conversions, and return on investment (ROI). 
  • Necessary optimizations: we ensure the increasing evolution of your campaigns' performances and analyze the behavior of your contacts to assess whether a strategic change needs to be made.

We also offer email marketing, which consists of sending an email to a list of contacts (one-to-many). It usually serves a fairly broad purpose, such as announcing promotions, new products, sharing information and new content via a newsletter, or implementing marketing automation. 

These emails are thus more timely and individually calibrated for each user depending on their progress in the customer journey.
