Although many people use email as a marketing tool to promote their products and services, many of them do not know the difference between email marketing and sending spam. I understand this because this type of marketing is relatively new in our Arab region. However, many developed countries, such as the United States, have worked to give a precise definition of email marketing.
In addition, it has worked to legalize all types of communications on the Internet to protect all parties involved. This article explains the difference between email marketing and sending spam. Email Marketing vs. Spam, Definitions Spam: It is the sending of an electronic message for commercial purposes without obtaining permission from the recipient.
This means that the emails we send to our friends and family cannot be considered spam. However, if you send a large number of messages to people without asking them to promote your products and services, then you are undoubtedly sending spam. Email marketing: is sending commercial newsletters to people who have subscribed to mailing lists to reach them.
From a legal standpoint, the line between email marketing and spam is participation in the sender's mailing lists. For example, if you have a collection of email addresses of people who have signed up for a newsletter with travel offers from a company, you cannot use this list to promote travel offers for your own company.
Email Marketing What makes email marketing and spam completely different is not just the permission you get from your recipients, but the privilege you have to send newsletters to people who want them. This feature is very important in this type of marketing because you are aware of the topics that interest your subscribers. Hence, it is easy to convert them from your website visitors to customers.
Advantages of email marketing Maintaining your brand reputation Giving customers the impression that you respect their privacy Saving money, time and effort in sending targeted newsletters to a targeted recipient list Help building relationships with visitors and converting them into customers Help improving sales performance Disadvantages of spam Sending newsletters to people who did not request them puts your brand reputation at risk. In addition, when the recipient sends your message to the spam folder, you will get into trouble with Internet service providers. At worst, your IP address could be blacklisted.
Wasting time and money communicating with an audience that does not want to receive your newsletters destroys your brand’s reputation #EmailMarketing #EmailMarketing
