How Hyper-Personalized Outreach is Revolutionizing Email Marketing

Are you struggling to reach new clients through traditional email outreach? These days, it can be nearly impossible to make your message stand out in inboxes that are constantly flooded with promotions and advertisements. With the influx of email marketing and advancing spam filters, ensuring that your messages will be delivered and read is no easy task.

The effectiveness of email marketing is on a slow decline but it’s far from dead — innovative outreach can revive the practice and successfully tie it into your larger personalized marketing strategies.

The Future of Email Outreach

Leading marketers and sales professionals alike are quickly realizing that only modernized, unique, and highly targeted email outreach will grab the reader. One of the best ways to make your emails stand out in the crowd is through the hyper-personalization of your messaging. By drawing on rich information about your prospect, your otherwise static email outreach is able to fold into your larger conversational marketing strategy, rather than being perceived as completely cold outreach. According to a recent study by Experian, personalized emails deliver 6 times higher transaction rates. And, while most companies are currently using name tokens as their form of personalization in marketing emails, recipients are able to see through this tactic and are left feeling like they are just a number to a corporation.  By leveling up your personalization — tapping into your customer’s pain points and unique personality — your company will be able to reach prospects via email like never before, providing a truly human experience for the recipient. One notable way to do so is by adding hyper-personalized images; in fact, recipients are able to recall 65% of visual content three days later, making the addition of attention-grabbing images essential. Images can explain complex concepts more quickly than words, and images that are personalized to the consumer are exponentially more effective. While there is a risk in filling your emails with images, since some spam blockers are especially sensitive to image-heavy messages, as long as you are cognizant of the text-to-image balance, dynamic imagery should not affect the deliverability of your email campaigns.

Dynamic imagery may sound like a daunting topic to learn, but at heart, it simply requires you to understand the intersection of the data you have available with the data the recipient cares about. This can include anything from a company logo to professional headshot or even a social media profile picture.
