• Set of automated, pre-written emails
• Build and nurture relationships
• Provide value for your subscribers
• Use different email types in your sequence
• Set up with an email marketing service
• Your conversion rate is the number of conversions divided by the total
number of visitors.
• Conversion Rate = (Number of Conversions / Number of Visits) x 100
• For example, if a website receives 1,000 visitors in a month and 50
people are buying a product, the conversion rate would be 50 divided by
1,000… so it would be 5%.
• Conversion goal: Email subscribers
• 150 email list subscribers / month
• 5,000 people visited your website / month
• Conversion rate: (150/5,000) x 100 = 3.00%
• Conversion goal: Free consultation call
• 10 people book a free consultation call
• Email follow-up message was sent to 500 subscribers
• Conversion rate: (10/500) x 100 = 2.00%
• Measure the performance
• What is a good conversion rate?
• 1% - 3% = typical
• 5% - 10% = very good
• Identify areas for improvement
• Helps you make strategic decisions
