If you want to turn me into your brand evangelist, you have to make my life more productive, more effective, and easier. Then I’m all yours … and will tell other moms about you.
So here are a few firsthand tips on how to optimize your email marketing for the world’s shopping superpower – mobile moms.
How to Reach $24 Trillion Market
- Mobile email is one of the most important channels for reaching me. That means mobile-ready templates are essential because, if it doesn’t display properly — I’ll simply ignore it.
- I make instant buying decisions and can be influenced by a sense of urgency. So don’t hesitate to promote time-sensitive and quantity-limited offers.
- I love to share with and seek advice from peers. If you give me something I believe in – I’ll preach it to my friends and persuade them to try it out.
- Not all moms use smartphones. But of those who do, most are: employed full-time, white, college graduates, age 22 to 34. This is potentially your most responsive target, so segment your list and monitor subscriber preferences closely.
- Moms are busy. They welcome every offer that can make life easier.
- Mix it all with a pinch of family love, care and protection and you’re heading straight for success.
