Online marketing makes it easy to measure ROI
With traditional mass media, you throw your message out there and hope that your audience will see it. And, if you’re lucky enough to catch them, what are the odds they’ll pay any attention to your message?
Fact:34% of marketers believe media advertising is too difficult to measure. (Reveries.com, August 2002)
Email marketing ends the mystery of “did my message get to my audience?” In fact, by design, you learn a lot about your audience. Who clicked through and when. To what links. Who accepted the offer. What messaging works. What delivery times generate the greatest response. What industry sectors are most likely to respond.
For all these reasons, email and electronic marketing has quickly become the most trackable media available. So when you need to validate your advertising/marketing budget, you can quote hard numbers to validate your communications efforts.
