Educational emails

For your prospect these emails educate them on your industry and how your solution will solve their problems. And for you it means you have a prospect in your purchasing funnel which means that there is a higher probability that they will turn into a customer.

Discount and or special emails

These emails alert your subscribers to any discounts or specials that you may offer. Be these related to the industry that you are in eg. Mother’s Day for florists or seasonal eg. October for hockey equipment stores

Trigger emails

When a user does something it is a great time to send an email related to their action. Be it signing up for your newsletter or abandoning an item in their shopping cart.

When a user purchases an item from you is a perfect time to send a follow-up email. Say for example you sell blenders a followup email may contain healthy morning smoothie recipes or how to utilize the specialized attachments.

Newsletter

When newsletters are done right they have real value for the reader. For example a clothing store could write about current trends in the fashion field, how to mend a hem or an interesting tidbit about your industry.

Company Logo

Features & Benefits

Stand out from competitors

Chances are that if you are a small business just starting out you will have competitors that are already well established. So, your company logo needs to assist you in standing out from your competitors.

Communicate your company values

Another job of your company logo is to communicate your company’s values. For example a daycare specializing in caring for autistic children should communicate that you are a supportive and caring business. Or if you are a custom motorcycle shop the values you may want to communicate include helpful staff and a wide variety of parts available in store.

Part of all marketing material

A great company logo should be a part of any marketing material that you have. From your website to your business card to your social media channels and beyond. This allows your potential customers to build a positive image of your business in their mind over time. Then when the time comes that they need the services of a business like yours yours will come to mind immediately.
