Using templates properly?

4 replies
Hello everyone. I'm sorry if I've been posting too often, but I'm really trying to get high conversions, and there have been a few things that I've just assumed in the past without actually doing research on it.

I've always used the same template for every email in any given list. I did this with the assumption that when they open the email, they will instantly know where to look and that it's from me. My only concern is that it might be boring and my email address might be enough to show them who I am.

I'd just like to know other's opinions.

    I use the same template each time, and I find if I change the subject line, my open rate changes even more than if I change the template.

    Honestly, I think HTML email is overrated (even though I use it), but I think good and easily available information is more important than email design.

        Hi Seofor5,

        With regards to templates, don't push it too hard, seriously!

        You're right about one thing. They have to know it's from you!

        What you need to do is to find a template that best suits YOUR PERSONALITY. People connect with people through emotions. If you're too concerned about them being boring, then please read this article by email master, Lee Murray: Price Is Right Marketing: How Often Should I Email My List?

        Oh just one tip. Make sure your emails are mobile optimized!

          I appreciate it. Never really thought of the "personality" part. I'll check out the link too.
