Just got an email from reminding their subscribers that they can control what they see in their inbox. 🙌🙌
The message centered around Mother's Day - with Canva understanding that might be hard for some to recieve messages on that topic - they allowed them to change their prefrences right in the email.

This is just another example of why email marketing is a fantastic way for small businesses to get to know their subscribers better and then be able to give them the content they WANT, which will lead to more brand loyalty and conversions!

But it also serves as a great reminder to all of us that WE CAN CONTROL OUR EMAIL! It may take a little bit of clean up, but if email marketing is done right, those emails should only bring you joy, knowledge, a deal to your favorite store, etc. Change your preferences or unsubscribe to the ones that are not bringing you those things!

Tried out Constant Contact's Social Share Buttons with an email campaign today. Readers (our Friends & Family list) were asked to "play match-maker" and share my clients image on their friends Facebook or LinkedIn pages that were "looking for the perfect real estate agent". We will see how it does!

Someone thinks we'd be a good match. Contact us today to get started!

Did you freak when Facebook & Insta went down Monday?? None of my clients did. Know why? Because although social media is a great way to connect with our followers, we don't rely solely on social media to get our messages across.
Contact me if you'd like to learn more about other ways to connect with your customers & clients!

Let's take a look at how you can protect yourself from feeling the effects of the next inevitable Facebook and Instagram outage, and what we can learn from the last one.

Too many small businesses are not taking advantage of email marketing!!📧

▶According to a recent poll, 34% of consumers are likely to buy from an email marketing campaign, but only 52% of small businesses promote using email!

⚠If you are a small business and are not sending your messages through email you are missing a chance to reach the right person at the right time and build brand awareness, engagement and loyalty!

They had me at "Email Snafu", but some of the comments of past intern horror stories are too funny! 🤦‍♀️ Do you have one you'd like to share?

Even Monica Lewinsky, who had an affair with former President Bill Clinton when she was a White House intern, offered words of encouragement.

Umm...that's over half of the world’s population! And that number is only going up. It’s estimated that another half a billion people will be using email by 2024. The simple truth is that your customers are actively using email. Make sure you are as well!

Don't forget about Google when thinking about your social media strategy. The same photos you put on Facebook and Instagram can be posted on Google. Photos on Google show that you are an active brand, catch the eyes of consumers and boost search engine optimization.

When it comes to getting discovered by nearby customers and standing out in your industry, a well-developed Google Maps listing can put you at the top.
