Changing Your Email Marketing Mindset

When you think of email marketing, does your mailing list come to mind? To harness the true power of that list, you have to stop thinking of it as a list and start thinking of it as a database. By doing so, you can sort your contacts in such a way that you’re able to send personalized communications, delivering the right message to the right people at the right time. The change in mindset will allow you to improve your performance and increase value, giving your customers a better experience as well as reducing the number of contacts and leads that go to waste.
