Nurture Leads & Convert Sales

Automated email drip campaigns guide prospective customers seamlessly through the sales funnel. Email marketing automations like these provide valuable information and timely offers to those considering purchasing from you. This nurturing process helps convert leads and foster customer loyalty, driving consistent revenue growth for your business.

Why Is Email Marketing Automation Important?

No matter your business size, if you’re looking to scale, email marketing automation should be a critical part of your marketing process. Email marketing automations allow you to:

  • Scale Without Additional Overhead: Send personalized messages to any number of subscribers without increasing the amount of effort you’re expending. 
  • Improve Your Customer Experience: Deliver timely and relevant content that provides what your customers need without them having to ask for it, guiding them through their journey towards conversion. 
  • Increase Revenue: Minimize site abandonment and drive sales through email marketing promotions, abandoned cart recovery messages, and post-purchase follow-ups. 
  • Build Customer Loyalty: Foster long-term relationships by utilizing automated drip email campaigns, loyalty programs, and even re-engagement email marketing campaigns. 
  • Track Behavioral Insights: Analyze email performance metrics to understand your customer’s buyer behavior and use this data to optimize your website and future marketing campaigns for better results.

Cole LeifsonCEO

Worked with Vanessa and it was a great experience. Thankful to come across this company as it was a struggle finding a trusted website developer before. We switched from Wix to WordPress and also got a slight redesign in the process. Everything works as intended and gives me confidence to refer them to others.

Tyler LoveSmall Business Owner

The website they built for me is BEAUTIFUL! Everything works so smoothly and looks good too. The best part is they didn't leave me hanging and helped me get up to speed on how to best use the website how I wanted to. Not to mention they followed the schedule they set out with any delays - if you've worked with website builders before you know how rare this is.

Brandon KnightBusiness Owner

Wow, you owe it to yourself and your company to give these guy's a call. Not only do they create an awesome site, they do it at a fraction of the cost. I expected poor service based on the price but man was I mistaken. I won’t hesitate to refer these guys in the future. I dealt with Josh but I know their entire team is great.

Chris C.CEO

Laura P. and the entire Big Red Jelly team were a pleasure to work with! They had lightning fast response times, and made some increadible final products for Office Evolution in Burlington, MA. Thank you so much, Big Red Jelly! 🙂

Frequently asked questions about our email marketing automation services

What exactly is email marketing automation, and how can it help my business?

Email marketing automation uses software to send pre-designed email sequences to your subscribers based on specific triggers (like signing up, making a purchase, or abandoning a cart) or scheduled times. It helps your business by saving time, personalizing customer communication at scale, nurturing leads automatically, recovering lost sales, and ultimately increasing conversions and revenue without constant manual effort.

Is email marketing automation suitable for small businesses with limited budgets?

Yes, absolutely! Email marketing generally offers one of the highest ROIs in digital marketing, and automation enhances this by increasing efficiency and personalization. Many platforms offer scalable pricing plans, making it very accessible for small businesses to start with essential automation workflows and expand as they grow. It’s often more cost-effective than hiring additional staff for manual outreach.

What types of emails can be automated?

A wide variety of emails can be automated, including: welcome series for new subscribers, abandoned cart reminders, post-purchase follow-ups (thank yous, review requests, product care tips), re-engagement campaigns for inactive subscribers, birthday/anniversary emails, educational drip campaigns, and lead nurturing sequences that guide prospects through your sales funnel.

How do I get started with email marketing automation?

Getting started involves a few key steps: first, define your goals. Then, select an email marketing automation platform that fits your needs. Next, segment your email list based on customer behavior or demographics. Finally, design and set up your automated workflows and email content, and consistently monitor and optimize their performance.

How do I measure the success of my automated email campaigns?

Success is measured by key metrics such as open rates, click-through rates, conversion rates, and unsubscribe rates. By tracking these, you can identify what’s working well and what needs optimization to improve your campaign’s effectiveness and ROI.
