After 10 years in business, I’ve used (and seen) a lot of software and apps meant to make online business easier. Many overpromise and underdeliver. Or many are just not exactly right for you. But there are definitely some standouts.

Over the past 12 months, I’ve been working to simplify my business tech stack and in this episode I’m going to share what I use now and why. Not just email marketing but I’m taking you on a full behind the scenes of what I use for marketing, lead generation, client management, online course delivery and day to day business functions.

I’m also sharing:
The 7 criteria I used in deciding what stays and what goes
Why all-in-one solutions aren’t all they have cracked up to be
Why you don’t need to have a subscription for everything

Plus my top 2 newest finds.

The Quarterly Client Invitation Strategy

The best way to increase your email marketing sales is not just about adding more emails or more automations. Instead the secret is to increase the relevance of your emails and your offers to your subscribers.

It makes sense right? The more relevant an offer or the email content is to me, the more likely I will read it and take action on it.

The challenge of course, is how do you do this when you have a list of subscribers who fit a whole range of scenarios.

This is one of the untapped potential areas of email marketing and something that differentiates it from other marketing channels. Email gives you the ability to send some emails to some subscribers and not others. Or, even better, send different versions of those emails to different groups. In both your campaigns and your automations.

Inside this episode, I’m sharing some of the little-known extra layers that you can put within your emails or automations that take them from stock standard to standout.

You’ll learn 3 different methods of getting the data and information you need about your subscriber and then how to use this information to:
Send different emails to different groups
Trigger automation or flows
Send emails to different subscribers at different times
Write one email but have subscribers see different versions (using dynamic or conditional content)

This is an idea filled episode with a tonne of ideas. The goal is just to choose your own!

10 Automation Creation Hacks

Wanting to increase the numbers and types of emails you are sending but are concerned about the number of emails your subscribers may get? A preferences centre might just be the solution you need!

In this episode, I’m breaking down how a preferences centre can help transform your email strategy and keep your subscribers happy.

You’ll learn:
How a preferences centre customises the subscriber experience
Why it’s a crucial alternative to unsubscribing
The different types of preferences you can offer
When and where to add preferences links in your emails
How to create and automate your own DIY preferences centre

The bottom line? You’ll be sending the right emails to the right people - based around what they have told you they want. And you can breathe a sigh of relief that you aren’t annoying anyone with content they don’t want.

If you want more tips and ideas on the strategies behind grouping your subscribers, how to get the information and how to setup preferences centres then you’ll love my Super Segmenting course.

You’ll also learn my automation hacks to make it easy to move subscribers into their relevant groups.

PLUS get a full library Tech Tutorials showing how to setup your segments, lists and more inside your email marketing software (Klaviyo, MailerLite, ConvertKit, MailChimp and ActiveCampaign).

Preferences Centres: Why, What, When, Where & How

It’s the end of financial year here in Australia and the time we all step back to look at the key numbers in our businesses. And your email marketing numbers should definitely be included in your analysis.

No, I’m not talking about your opens, clicks, unsubscribes and bounces here.

Instead we want to know exactly how much revenue email marketing has contributed to your bottom line and (even cooler) how we can use these numbers to create predictions about what you will earn next year.

Inside this episode, I’m sharing the top 4 metrics you want to review and how to calculate them:
Return on Investment (ROI)
Revenue per Subscriber (RPS)
Sales Conversion Rate
List Growth Rate

Plus your predicted email marketing revenue for the year to come.

If you want more support in calculating these numbers check out The Email Experience membership which includes a full email performance review process and the 5 Email Experiences Framework to help you identify any gaps in your email marketing. Learn more at yaelkeon.com/experience.

Or if you want me to look at the numbers for you, check out my 1-1 consulting packages at yaelkeon.com/work-with-me.
