    Email marketing is a method of creating a connection with your audience by convincing them to join your email list, where you use an autoresponder series (scheduled email series) to develop the connection. The marketing aspect comes from the ability to promote your own and affiliate products to your list once you have provided value and developed a connection with the people.

    Email marketing means making a cult of followers (for your blog) who reads your your content religiously, trust your content religiously, act upon your suggestions religiously.

    And you earn huge tithe in the end! (in long run tho!)

    How can you achieve that ? well you have to master the following five things.

    1. QUALITY SEO
    2. QUALITY CONTENT
    3. QUALITY RELATIONSHIP MARKETING
    4. QUALITY INFLUENCER MARKETING
    5. QUALITY COPY WRITING

    To have a super dooper successful blog you need all of the above five ingredients and that may take at least an year!

    And adsense are peanuts! do you like peanuts ? nobody like peanuts!!! at least I don't!!

      you don't need a blog to be successful in Email marketing. A capture page and a regular newsletter that builds relationships first, where you can then promote products and services that will forefill a need or solve a problem. No need to over complicate things.

      Warm regards

    Email marketing means to basically build a list of email subscribers and market products and services to them.

    Is it a better business model than Adsense?

    I really don't know as I haven't done much with Adsense at all.

    Email marketing works for me.

    First, congratulations on your new business adventure.

    Email marketing means creating a list of emails, from your customers and potential customers and sending them regular emails to keep your business in the forefront of their minds should they need the product or service that you offer.

    Is it better than Adsense? I'm not quite sure what you mean. They both are different advertising platforms to get the word out about your business. You would have to test each one to see what works best for your particular business model.

    If you are going to run an email campaign yourself you'll need an autoresponder. And most of us in the IM world use either Aweber or GetReponse to manage our lists and deliver our emails to the subscribers on our list.

    They both offer tutorials that can explain how they work.

    I hope that helps and good luck.

    They've all told you what email marketing is about - literally.

    However, I suggest you pick up a good course on email marketing and study it.

    You will uncover nuggets you won't find on this thread because folks may be just too busy to go in depth in explaining all you need to know about email marketing.

    A good research on Google will give you loads of free nuggets too.

    email marketing in simple terms is where you create a list of emnail subscribers, they should be real, and use the emails to send product information to the subscribers. they target to inform the potential customers eg on new products, new prices and more information. the subscribers can also order using the emails. there are different methods that can be used to collect the emails including asking people to subscribe and other many more.. it is a wide field and maybe you can take your time and find literature that can give you more information

    Email marketing is the process of creating awareness and a deep business connection with people based on the products and services that you offer. It is one of the most effective way that I can recommend you to use. One major reason is the fact that it is personal, it gives you an option to customize the message for the individual and also do the followups. You however need to have a clear understanding of the people in your mailing list and just be carefully not to have clients thinking that the emails they are receive are all spam.

    Email Marketing strikes many as old-fashioned. More fashionable venues like social media and mobile marketing get all the attention, and some people will even try to tell you that email marketing is dead.

    Email marketing is a way to reach consumers directly via electronic mail. Unlike spam, direct email marketing reaches those interested in your business’ area of expertise. The information is sent out more like a laser-guided missile than a bomb: No matter what you’re selling, it is a way to reach thousands of potential customers directly at a relatively low cost when compared to advertising or other forms of media exposure. It brings your business’ message through an attractive mix of graphics, text and links directly to people who may have never heard of your business or considered your products, but are knowledgeable and interested in your business’ area of expertise.

    Hey Mohamed, do you have a list of prospects and their email addresses? Essentially you need this to start email marketing. If you do not have a list to start with I would recommend Adwords ads to get started.

    Email marketing is simply the concept of Capturing people's email address - people who are interested in a certain topic (niche) - and then following up with them via emails.

    It is a simple concept. Most business today use email marketing. Just pay close attention to the companies and businesses around you!

    Even Mcdonalds uses email marketing now! haha

    They get your email address, so they can promote their new products and offers.

    That is email marketing!

    Just getting people interested in a certain topic, asking them for their emails if they want to learn more, and then follow up with them through frequent emails.

    Simple to understand my friend!

    Now, there is more you need to learn about email marketing, to be very good with it - of course

    I'm gonna pipe up and add my 0 cents...

    Email marketing is communicating 1-2-1 with your list about something they want.

    I think it's easy to forget that email is one of the few ways you can still create that feeling of a personal conversation with someone. It's in the privacy of their inbox and hopefully an inbox that's important to them ... not the one for signing up to all sorts of dog poop.

    Email Marketing is building a list of people interested in your organization/services/products and generating a relationship. As your list grows and your skills with email grow you will want to look into segmentation, dynamic data, responsive email templates, drip marketing and so forth as email can become a very powerful and automated tool for your new venture.

    I myself have used MailChimp, Aprimo, Mandrill and Salesforce Marketing Cloud. My favorite is Aprimo/Teradata but it does come with a very hefty price tag. For most of my smaller clients I usually integrate with Mailchimp or Mandrill if they need a more custom service. I have yet to use Aweber but I hear it is pretty good.

    In my opinion email marketing is when you have a subscriber list and you send emails to them, and you want to benefit with this behavior that's what we called email marketing.

    As for what content and how it works would depend on what your business is. As we say you're a blogger, then you probably write quality contents to your subscribers so they will like you and your blog and you can then take advantages of them, or you write email with your links of new posts and introduce your subscribers to read and you will grow your traffic of your blog.

    As if you want to choose adsense ads for your business, maybe you would like to sell things with those ads, but you will need completely different strategy and that's already another arena with email marketing.

    Hope this would help,

    - Ray

    Hello,
    Email marketing is still valuable.Ultimately, email marketing is affordable, which means that, even if a campaign bombs, the marketer isn’t in trouble. In comparison, given their high spend, failed advertising campaigns using direct mail, print advertising, radio and TV can be disastrous. People check their email on their cell phones and tablets at least once a day. SMS, by contrast, is not as popular. What’s more, texting may cost the user. It’s much harder to eloquent a marketing message with a limited number of words.
