Newsletter email templates

Many so-called experts have been announcing the end of email marketing for the past few years. However, this channel, an integral part of the marketing matrix, is still going strong.

Email newsletters, which are a specific form of email messaging, are not dying out any time soon. On the contrary, they are gaining more and more importance in the digital strategies of most companies. Because of this, a newsletter is still a necessary communication tool, as long as its use is reasonable and has a purpose.

What is a newsletter email?

A newsletter is a digital publication that is distributed at regular intervals (daily, weekly, monthly, bimonthly, or quarterly) via email. Newsletters are usually made up of different articles about a brand, company, or the sector in which it operates, accompanied by an offer or CTA (call to action).

Typically, people who receive this type of communication are subscribers who have previously shown interest in the business and its products or services and have agreed to receive this newsletter. This is vital, as you should only send email updates to users who have consented to receive them.ย

Moreover, businesses must consider specific legal regulations in different areas of the world, such as GDPR in Europe, before sending out email communications. These regulations apply to any organization operating within a certain region, as well as any organizations outside of that region that offers goods or services to customers or businesses in that region.

Remember to always include an unsubscribe button or link inside your newsletter, preferably at the bottom of your email template. The recipients of your email newsletters should always have the possibility to opt-out from receiving your emails.

Why should you implement a newsletter email in your marketing strategy?

A registered user that has agreed to receive email communication from your company is of great value. If you have a list of active subscribers, there are tons of reasons why sending out newsletters is beneficial:

  • An email has a much longer life cycle than content posted on social media.
  • 91% of consumers check their email at least once a day on their smartphones (source), so donโ€™t forget to create responsive, mobile-friendly newsletters!

  • Email marketing has a much higher ROI (4,300%) than other digital communication channels (source).
  • Itโ€™s quite a cheap marketing channel compared to PPC and doesnโ€™t require any upfront financial investment.
  • The audience that receives email newsletters from you agreedย to receive your content, so they are already interested in hearing from you.ย 
  • It delivers results quicker than SEO.ย 
  • It enables you to bring more traffic to your website.

There are many advantages to sending newsletters. However, you must be careful when executing this communication strategy. Always think of the user first, and ensure that you are delivering value with whatever youโ€™re sending their way.

Frequently asked questions

How often should a newsletter be sent?

Newsletters should be sent out regularly so that youโ€™re not forgotten by your subscribers. However, sending out newsletters too frequently can make your readers feel like theyโ€™re being spammed and bothered.ย 

Sending out newsletters monthly or bi-weekly is very common, however, anything between two weeks and two months is reasonable. Be consistent, though โ€“ donโ€™t send two newsletters in three weeks and then go radio silent for two months.

How can I measure the success of my newsletter?

The most useful metrics for measuring the impact of a newsletter are the percentages of delivery rates, open rates, click-through rates, and bounce rates. All reliable marketing agencies or email marketing tools will provide these statistics.

  • The delivery rate is the ratio of emails that didnโ€™t bounce to the number of emails sent.
  • The open rate is the ratio of subscribers who opened your newsletter to the number of emails delivered.
  • The click-through rate is the ratio of people who clicked links inside the email to the number of emails delivered.
  • The bounce rate is the ratio of email addresses in your newsletter list that did not receive your message, because their mail servers or clients returned them, to the total number of email addresses in your list.

Typically,ย  you want to aim for:

  • A 95% or higher delivery rate
  • A 30% open rate
  • More than 10% of click-through rates
  • A less than 2% bounce rate

However, these rates and benchmarks may vary from industry to industry. The most important elements that influence these results are a campaignโ€™s data quality and the value of content.ย 

How long should my newsletter be?

Content should be short, skimmable, and presented in small chunks. Generally, consumers spend only a few seconds skimming over emails, picking up on general keywords and topics. If they spot something relevant, they will slow down and read your message more carefully. Start by writing your email, and then continue editing down until youโ€™ve presented the key information in the shortest and sweetest way possible.
