What is E-mail Marketing?
E-mail marketing is a way by which you promote your business and services to individuals by e-mail. Frequently, people opt-in to receive these types of e-mails so you are not spamming people with unwanted mail. In these e-mails you will provide information on your business and service and information for individuals to contact you if interested in these advertised services. This is a great way to reach many individuals quickly and is very cost effective.
Now that you know what e-mail marketing is you need to learn about the benefits of an e-mail marketing campaign.

This means you have the opportunity to reach people almost immediately. Also, e-mail marketing is a billion dollar business so it certainly has a track record of being effective.
Other benefits of an e-mail marketing campaign includes saving a significant amount of time and money. An e-mail campaign can be started and completed in the matter of hours and then sent out immediately. The traditional method meant designing and printing advertising materials, stuffing and addressing envelopes, and finally mailing them. This included a lot of additional work and time, not to mention money.
You will also see your sales increase with this type of marketing campaign and generally you will receive a response rate of 5-15% with this type of campaign.
