A story full of emotions
To achieve its objective, the story contained in your emails must allow potential customers to feel close to your company. It’s about presenting your business as the ideal solution to what they’re looking for by creating an emotional connection. This connection is strengthened by the integration of human values with which the target company can identify. In your business communications, you are speaking to human beings.
To succeed in a marketing action, it is essential to know your prospects well. The data collected about your contacts is used to create content tailored to each segment. This identification of the values held by your potential customers is the key to effective storytelling.
A persuasive message to choose you
Capturing the customer’s attention is the major challenge at the start of storytelling. The overall appearance of the email should be clear and attractive. For example, you can add a video or an image. But above all, it is important to arouse the audience’s interest by awakening a particular emotion that reflects the reader’s concerns. This feeling helps associate the information read with your brand in customers’ memories, bringing them closer to adopting your product or service.
Put your customers at the center of the story
The more target companies feel understood and made aware of the values expressed in your storytelling, the more effective your B2B email campaign will be. Your customers will be more affected if they find themselves at the heart of the content of your emails, as the hero of the story presented to them. To measure the impact of your message, it is important to analyze the data collected and adjust the tone of your story if necessary.
