Why newsletters matter more than ever


Also, 60% of consumers have made a purchase as a result of a promotional email and email marketing has an average ROI of 3600% - making it a better marketing channel than social media and display advertisement.



Our top 5 tips for building high-converting newsletters



🌟 Know your audience’s pain points

Address what keeps your audience up at night. For example, many of our clients face challenges with finding time to engage with their audience and lack expertise in crafting high-quality content. By understanding these needs, you can tailor each email to resonate personally.


🌟 Craft a killer subject line

Your subject line is the first thing readers see. Without a strong hook, your newsletter may never be opened. In fact, 47% of people decide whether to open an email based on the subject line alone. Make it concise, engaging, and relevant.


🌟 Use visuals wisely

Effective visuals grab attention and can boost engagement. Emails featuring graphics achieved an average open rate of 43.12% and a click-through rate of 4.84%, compared to 35.79% and 1.64% for those without graphics. But keep it clean – avoid overwhelming your readers with clutter.


🌟 Create clear, actionable CTAs

Your Call to Action (CTA) should be impossible to miss. Use action-oriented language like “Get your free guide” or “Start your trial now” to drive engagement.


🌟 Test and optimize

What works today may not work tomorrow. Regularly A/B test your subject lines, content formats, and send times to optimize performance. Businesses that A/B test every campaign see improvement in engagement rates.
