Hey Friend,

I have some killer email campaigns (with real examples, as always) that I want to share. I can't wait for you to check them out.


Before we dive into this week's edition, I want to quickly tell you about a platform that's putting power back into marketers' hands.

The past few years have been anything but easy with all the chaos we marketers have had to deal with. From privacy updates to rising CAC to layoffs and a looming recession. It's been tough, to say the least.

And while there's no silver bullet — there is one asset that will make weathering the storm (and thriving during it) a lot more likely:

Your owned audience: Email + SMS.

A company I'm advising called Retention.com has built a platform that'll help you do 2 primary things around identity resolution:

1. Their platform will help you send more abandonment emails (up to 5x-10x more), resulting in a boatload more revenue being generated for your or your client's brand.

2. Their platform will help you to capture more emails of people visiting your site. You're spending a lot of money to get people to your site, you might as well maximize your email capture. And no, your current popup just isn't cutting it.

I highly encourage you to chat with them about how they're helping my clients and others like Tonal, Blendjet, Dr. Squatch, etc. make a ton of money (seeing an average 2x-4x ROI) from their Email and SMS channels.


Let's jump into the 3 email campaigns:

 

Campaign Idea 1 - The Retail Awareness Email:

  • Email Examples:

    The Retail Awareness Email Example 1

    The Retail Awareness Email Example 2

     
  • Purpose/Context of Email:

    Retail = legitimacy. Plain and simple. When it comes to making a move from DTC into retail, it's not really about economics as much as it's about the way your customers (current and future) perceive you. Retail is still king when it comes to most people's buying decisions, so having emails that highlight this is great for the brand.

    Example 1 is from Jinx, a DTC dog food brand.

    Jinx is in target now, and that's great news. That means that all of the millennial dog owners that have been buying Jinx for the last few years can now go get it along with the rest of their groceries, incorporating it into their "adulting" routine. They've gotta be crushing it, because I don't know any other big dog food brands that are going direct to consumer. They now have the advantage of being omnipresent, so they'll win long term. Good email.


    Example 2 is from Love Wellness.

    Love Wellness actually has a really cool voice/personality that shines through in these emails, and the design is super cool. This brand is also competing with a lot of legacy companies that solve the same problem, but they probably don't have the power of an email list to drive thousands of people to Target and sell out the shelves. When you can command that people drive up demand for your products, it makes it look really good to major retailers. Love Wellness did this perfectly.

  • Segment(s):

    - Your Engaged Subscriber Segment

     

  • Subject Line Ideas: 

    - Did you see aisle 4 in Target today?

    - Find us in Target!

    - We have a new home in Target!

     
  • Preview Text Ideas:

    - Go clean up.

    - We're looking for you too. 

    - Come over ;)

Campaign Idea 2 - The Spring Break Email:

  • Email Examples:

    - The Spring Break Email Example 1

    The Spring Break Email Example 2


     
  • Purpose/Context of Email:

    WOOO, SPRING BREAK BABY! For our 18-25s, it's time to get them hyped up for the best week of their lives. Spring break is coming up in the next few weeks, and we need to make sure that we serve them products that will help them have a fun & safe time.

    Example 1 is from Princess Polly, a fashion brand for young women. This email just feels like spring break. There's something about the way it's designed that makes you hyped up. They made collections for this event, and organized it so it's easy to find. I would've added a little bit more copy to this email to get everyone excited for this event. When people are excited, they spend money. Trust me.

    Example 2 is from Revolve, another women's fashion brand. This email looks a bit more like a fashion email with all of the product call-outs in here. I might've made sure that some of the imagery looks more "spring break-y" because it looks more like a fall collection, but I'm sure this crushed anyway. People can see themselves wearing this for spring break, and they get excited for it. They also call out different types of spring breaks that people will have, because not everyone is in party mode 24/7. Very diverse and well-thought-out email.
     

  • Segment(s):

    - Your engaged segment

     
  • Subject Line Idea: 

    - SPRING BREAK, BABY

    - Spring break is coming...

    - Are you ready for spring break??

     
  • Preview Text Idea:

    - WOOOO

    - Get ready with these!

    - We are! Check it out. 

Campaign Idea 3 - The "The Heroes" Email:

  • Email Examples:

    - The "The Heroes" Email Example 1

    The "The Heroes" Email Example 2


     
  • Purpose/Context of Email:

    Have no fear, The Heroes are here. Who are The Heroes? Our hero products, of course. We're talking about the best sellers, or the products that you REALLY want to pedestalize for your audience. We're gonna call out the products that you're most proud of and make them look like they're the best thing your audience could ever spend money on.

    Example 1 is from Honest Beauty, Jessica Alba's makeup company. I don't even wear makeup, but this email makes me wanna buy some. This email showcases the best-sellers, the awards that they've won, and a quote from the lady behind it all, Jessica Alba. The best part is that the founder carries inherent social proof with her because people already trust her. Making these products look like heroes is easy when you have a co-sign from a celebrity.

    Example 2 is from Ruggable, a rug/home decor company. They're doing a best-sellers sale here, which means they understand something super basic, but crucial, about marketing. Discounts sell products, and calling something a best-seller sells products, too. This is what I like to call "free money". You're giving your audience an opportunity to buy a product that everyone loves, at a discount. Can you turn that down? No. Also, the design is so clean. I love it.

  • Segment(s):

    - Your engaged segment

     
  • Subject Line Idea: 

    - The Heroes are in stock.

    - A sale on our Heroes

    - Our Hero products

     
  • Preview Text Idea:

    - Come and get em.

    - 20% off inside.

    - Meet the Heroes.

That's all, folks!

This whole newsletter is "free money". It's not often we go fully sale-centric for our campaigns, but it's time to start selling. People's wallets have finally cooled down from Christmas, and the weather is getting better. That means people are in the mood to buy stuff, and you're gonna be the one to sell it to them.
