Good #emailmarketing starts with the content you're sharing with your customers. Remember that your prospects don't care about your company or your product - they care about their challenges and how you can help solve them.
2. GOOD EMAIL IS RELEVANT
Segmentation is critical to ensure you're sending the right message to the right person at the right time. Sending relevant emails wins you more mindshare as well as better results - MarketingSherpa found that segmented emails get 50% more clicks than their un-targeted counterparts.

You should be communicating right from the beginning of each relationship and tailoring each email to your customers behaviors.
