The Marketing Book Podcast: “Email Marketing Rules” by Chad S. White
I had the honor of being the very first email marketing book author on The Marketing Book Podcast, which is hosted by Douglas Burdett. During episode #130, Douglas and I talk about:
- How email marketing is de-siloing and being integrated with other channels and business functions
- How email is granted media, not owned media
- The role of inbox providers like Gmail and Outlook
- The Hierarchy of Subscriber Needs
- How email deliverability now hinges on both negative feedback and positive engagement
- Why buying email lists is so dangerous
- Why brands focus too much on open rates
- Misconceptions around subject lines
- Optimizing your preview text
- Mobile-optimizing your emails
- Defensive email design and the use of fallbacks
- How subscriber expectations are rising
- The books that have influenced me and what I’m reading now
For all the details and lively discussion…
