1. Decide on the Right Goals and Audience to Target

Before you can begin writing an effective email series, you need to decide on the right goals and audience to target.

In order to choose the ideal target audience, consider the current goals of your business:

Depending on the target audience, the goals and content of your email series will vary.

For example, the content of an estimate follow-up campaign will differ from a lead generation campaign.

2. Write a Robust Email Series

Now that you’ve chosen a target audience, you’re ready to write a robust email series.

Keep in mind, the best email campaigns provide:

  • An irresistible offer
  • A valuable gift to surprise and delight

Typically, a great email campaign cadence consists of 1-3 emails consecutively sent each day. Then, the campaign should allow for breaks of a few days between sent emails.

Here’s an example of an ideal email campaign cadence:

  • 1st email: Monday
  • 2nd email: Tuesday
  • 3rd email : Wednesday
  • 4th email: Saturday
  • 5th email: Monday
  • 6th email: Wednesday
  • 7th email: Monday

Remember, reviewing results and split-testing are crucial to improving any email campaign into a long-term success.

Plus, you can easily review data and perform split-tests using the best lawn care software.

Also, it’s important to note that emails sent between Monday-Wednesday usually have the highest open rates.

Create an Irresistible Offer

An irresistible offer, also known as a CTA (i.e. Call-to-Action), provides the target audience with the next desired action you want them to take after reading your email.

The CTA should be simple, easy to understand, timely, and actionable. Take a look at this example of a great CTA:

  • Call 123-456-7890 now to claim this exclusive offer on lawn care services today!

BONUS: Delight the Target Audience With a Surprise Gift

Along with including a compelling CTA, it’s also important to surprise and delight your target audience with a gift.

For example, the gift could be something as simple as:

This free gift serves as an excellent way to impress clients by providing them with instant value.
