The nirvana of any good email marketing strategy is to be able to send the right message to the right person at the right time.
By identifying who your customers and prospects are, and by establishing data points that identify where they are with you on their individual journey, you can create a series of automated campaigns to send to your audience and deliver exactly that.
But if you don’t know where to start when it comes to adding to your automated campaign strategy, and if you don’t understand what your customers need as they progress on their journey with you, this workshop will answer those questions. And what you learn will inspire you to maximize your campaign potential.
In this workshop, we’ll talk about the five stages of the customer journey and how they should influence your email marketing communications. We’ll also look at how you can use your data to identify customers and prospects at each of these stages, how to work out what content to send and when for maximum impact, and how to consider the human side of your messages.
During the class we’ll also show you how to map your customers’ emotional journey and use that knowledge to create more impactful, engaging emails that get results; for both B2B and B2C businesses.
Regardless of which email platform (ESP) or vendor you currently use (or may decide to move), this class offers system-agnostic learning of concepts you should consider within your strategy and platform considerations to better personalize and automate your campaigns.
This course is a practical session giving you the techniques and ideas to build out your own customer journeys, identify exactly what your audience needs, and determine when and through which marketing channel this is best delivered. You’ll also get lots of examples of different types of campaigns throughout to inspire your content and creative strategy.

After this course I have the confidence to tackle my company’s desire for email marketing head-on and set them up for success.
This course was very helpful with understanding the customer journey from start to finish. I learned how we should always be updating our content and adapt throughout.
Kate is an excellent presenter and very thorough. Thank you for all the valuable information.
Great use of time, gave great insights and explained thoroughly in detail.
Very helpful and useful information. I would definitely take additional courses in the future.
I highly recommend attending all 4 workshops, even if you have been an email marketer for a while and have experience. The presentation is great and the content is very interesting, Kate even included the new trends and what to keep an eye on for the future. Even though you may think you know many things, you’ll definitely learn new things. Plus it’s great to have a refresher, so you don’t forget your basics and go back to what works.
This was the most useful workshop of all four in the series. It really sums up everything and applies multiple concepts from previous courses. It was the most useful one for me, especially the journey mapping worksheet and example provided!
Great presentation. Enjoyed finding ways to avoid being put in spam folders and keeping relevant.
No fluff. No sales pitch. Just actionable insights from a very knowledgeable presenter!
