The holiday season is really on top of us again. Today is the 5th day of Chanukah and Christmas is 9 days away! Oy Vey!
If you have customers, it’s a good time to send them a note of thanks and warm wishes for a Happy New Year. The holidays also provide a great opportunity to send a generous gift or discount coupon to your customers. Have you ever considered taking a portion of your advertising budget and spending it directly on your existing, loyal customers rather than on potential business relationships? Think about it.
Here is a selection of holiday email templates available in GroupMail.
GroupMail also allows you to import your own HTML email holiday templates and save them in GroupMail’s template folder. Have you designed a holiday email template that you’re proud of? If so, provide a link in the comments of this post so that we can get inspired.
If you haven’t yet started with your holiday email campaigns, it’s time to get the lead (or coal) out. Smith Harmon will help you. You can download their 2009 Retail Email Guide to the Holiday Season for free (short registration necessary – but no commitment.)
“…This guide includes benchmarks and advice on when to begin your campaign, how much to increase your email volume, which days to send on, and how to stand out in the inbox during the holidays. For instance, last year nearly 90% of major online retailers increased their email volume during the holiday season, with retailers boosting their send frequency by 43% on average compared to the pre-holiday period…” read the full Executive Summary
If you’re in a rush, you can download it here.
…and if you find yourself so far behind on the holiday calendar this year that you don’t have time to design a holiday template for your email campaign, GroupMail customers can use one of our holiday email templates.
