The purpose of your online presence is to attract customers to your business and more importantly, convert them into paying customers. Many companies these days utilise Customer Relationship Management Systems to help manage their customers whether it be product support, delivering regular services or simply sending emails to encourage more business. Our online business system comes with a customer database that is integrated with the website. This means when a customer fills in a form on the website, enquires about a product or purchases something, all the details they enter are captured and stored. They can be automatically added to appropriate emailing lists by opting in and all interaction with the customer is recorded and can be used to aid marketing.
Customer Relationship Management - an important tool to manage and Keep your Customers.
Integrated Email Marketing
- Regular Newsletters - Keep your Customers informed about Offers etc
- Email Campaigns - send a set number of associated emails at set intervals
- Anniversary offers - send an email out 2 weeks before someone's birthday/anniversary
- Products with annual renewals? Set an email to send at or before the renewal
- Quick and easy way to get the same message to your Customers
Email marketing is recognised as an excellent way to help Customer retention providing it is done with their permission and is appropriate to their needs. Many companies use separate email marketing software to keep in touch with their customers. Business Catalyst comes with integrated Email Marketing linked to your website for customer sign up and linked to the CRM that holds your Customers Email addresses. Just create your email, select the email address list you want to receive the email and set it to send - you can even set the date and time you want the email to go!
