Email marketing: It’s the lowest cost form of relationship building
As a non-profit you are in constant need of new volunteers, donors, and employees. You need need to keep old and new contacts aware of what is going on in your organization. Non-profits can produce great results with a consistent, thorough email campaign. Here are some initial ideas:
-
Develop an ever changing email list. Several different email lists can be created for different campaigns and purposes.
-
Email often, but not too often. Regular, consistent campaigns work the best.
-
Provide for your readers something that is engaging and worth passing on.
-
Test different strategies to see what gets opened the most.
For example:
-
Does your team respond to short “teaser” emails, or longer emails that have more information?
-
Do your readers respond to challenging subject lines or performance subject lines?
-
Does an html email or a text email lead to better open and click through rates?
