How to Build a High-Converting Email Marketing Campaign

Emma and Meghan of 48th Media Co. working to build high-converting email marketing campaigns for clients across Canada.

Whether you are new to email marketing or looking to improve your strategy, creating a high-converting email campaign is crucial for driving engagement and sales. Below we’re exploring the key elements that will help you build successful campaigns.

1. Clickable Links and Strong CTAs

High-converting emails start with clear, actionable steps. Links should be clear and stand out, and your CTA should be strong and easy to follow.

  • Clickable Links: Use a different text treatment (bold/underline) to ensure links are easy to spot and encourage clicks. Use buttons for a clear CTA.

  • Strong Calls-To-Action: Focus on clear, action-driven CTAs like “Shop Now” or “Download Here.” Keep it simple and avoid overcrowding your email with too many words or action items.

2. Clean, Clear, and On-Brand

Email design should be easy to read, clean, and reflect your brand.

  • Simple Layout: Avoid clutter. Keep the design straightforward and highlight key points.

  • Stay On-Brand: Use your brand’s colours, fonts, and tone to ensure consistency.

  • Mobile-Friendly: With the majority of readers opening emails on their phones, double-check how your email appears on mobile devices.

3. Optimize with Data and Analytics

Always refer back to the data! Use it to improve and refine your email campaigns going forward.

  • A/B Testing: Experiment with different subject lines and CTAs to see what works best. This is a great place to include a hook that captures the reader.

  • Key Metrics: Track open rates and click-through rates (CTR) to gauge performance. Open rates are a good indication of well-thought subject lines ;)

  • Iterate and Improve: Continuously refine your strategy based on data insights.
