On-Demand Webinar: The Biggest Shifts in Email Marketing Trends for 2021

The extraordinary events of the past year heavily influenced email marketing investments last year and are shaping the trends that will dominate 2021. We can see those shifts in the results of our second annual Email Marketing Trends Survey, where we surveyed Oracle Marketing Consulting’s more than 500 digital marketing experts. We asked them to rate 26 email marketing tactics and technologies, both in terms of their perceived adoption right now and their anticipated impact in 2021.

We then organized them into adoption-impact quadrants. Our consultants’ ratings placed three trends in our low adoption–low impact quadrant of Unproven Opportunities; 12 trends in our low adoption–high impact quadrant of Competitive Differentiators; 11 trends in our high adoption–high impact quadrant of Proven Essentials; and none in our high adoption–low impact quadrant of Established Commodities.

While you can learn more about each of those trends via the links above, in this 26-minute on-demand webinar we focus on how email marketers’ priorities have shifted in response to the pandemic. In addition to listing the quadrant groupings of all 26 email trends, we share:

• The 1 trend that had the biggest decrease in adoption
• The 2 trends that had the biggest decrease in impact
• The 3 trends that had the biggest increases in adoption
• The 3 trends that had the biggest increases in impact
• The 5 trends that changed quadrants
• The 5 trends that have the highest impact overall

There are clear patterns in these changes that paint a bigger picture of what marketers are focused on. We hope that this webinar, as well as our other posts on Email Marketing Trends for 2021, help inform your priorities for this year.
