Email Marketing Vs. Social Media


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

So I've been checking out the numbers and have found that email marketing is still much more effective that social media. In fact, some people say it can be as much as 30-40x more effective!

... The problem is, you have to get those email addresses! So how do you do that?

  1. Build a content rich site.
  2. Use social media to get some attention.
  3. Have good spam filters in place so your list of emails/subscribers doesn't get polluted with the fake accounts.

This is a problem btw that everyone on the Web faces. Even Facebook has admitted that a huge percentage of their users are just fake accounts.

At killersites, I ignored this whole thing for years ... I let the lists go bad and now we are playing catch-up after years of neglect. The problem with not keeping your lists and user-base clean ... is that the spammers saturate things and the real people get lost.

I suggest you Social media is big source you can target your local area and share your product. Keep in mind 30% traffic you got using of social networking website. when you talk about email marketing is cheap and less business method just spend money.

Yes, You are absolutely right. 

Email Marketing is more effective than social media marketing. It's because of the low cost of email marketing. Even though the conversion rate of social media is much higher than email marketing but when it comes down to ROI ( Return on Investment)  email marketing beats social media marketing.

I don't know about email marketing, for me, it's a little dirty, maybe because of constant scammers, spammers bombarding my email but it's really annoying. Even if it's more effective(I doubt that) I wouldn't choose that. Instead of that, Social media is a way better platform for increasing your audience on your site. However, I'm not a pro in this theme so you better ask some real agency that is working in this field for a long time. I can recommend these guys from digital marketing Liverpool, they have a lot of certified specialists that are working in this field for a long time.

Social media marketing and email marketing you can attract your customers or visitors from both these marketing strategies. But here, I want to say that social media marketing is better than email marketing for getting quick results but you can't forget your email strategy.

Yes, you are absolutely right. Social media marketing and email marketing are the best marketing strategies. 

Social Media and email marketing almost goes hand in hand. For any business to flourish online in

the present scenario, these two must be punched together

I think both are equally important and both of them have their advantages and disadvantages.

If you are going for Social Media Marketing you'll unlock

  • Driving traffic to your website
  • Building Brand Recognition
  • Building Community
  • Building Brand Royalty

In email marketing you'll be able to

  • Deliver your targeted personalized message
  • For converting subscribers into Customers
  • For Building Relationship with customers
  • Retaining the customer

I hope this clarify, but in conclusion, both are equally important tools to market your business and to increase the outreach.
 

Thanks!
