How? Look at AI

A/ The concept behind A/B testing is simple. The comparison is made between two different elements, “A” or “B”. Does intro A in one email produces better results than introduction B in another? If this is the case, B might want to use A’s introduction or one similar. A/B tests can produce good marketing analytic results. However, the process may be cumbersome. You or your team are only able to do so much manually. AI may automate this process. Automating and performing multiple tasks could reduce the time needed for analysis.

The analysis’ depth could also increase significantly. A/B tests using artificial Intelligence may also involve a greater amount of data. Comparations can be broken into smaller parts. This leads to an extensive metrics analysis that can be used to improve future email campaigns.

How valuable is this lead?

Mass mailings in the Stone Age email Marketing sometimes had surprising results. Email marketing was a new concept. The sender was often given the benefit of the doubt, and people made purchases, even if the contents of the email were lame. These days, people no longer say “Send me an email with a good price on a particular product and I may buy.” The content of the email must be so captivating that it will captivate the recipient. The recipient of the email must also be the correct person. If you don’t, a great deal of money and time will be wasted.

Metrics are important in determining the value of a recipient or lead. Artificial intelligence programs can monitor and analyze statistics from the recipient of the email. A program using artificial intelligence can scan click-through rates and how long customers spend on websites. This data about engagement is used to create a profile of the potential customer.

Marketers love people who seem like great prospects. Not everyone makes a purchase the first time. Yes, some people only read the content but never buy. An AI-based analysis of recipient behavior allows for a more accurate value assessment. Does this person deserve to receive more promotional material from you?

To answer that question, you need to combine a combination of data analysis and judgment calls. Data analysis can help make judgment calls more informed. You could leave data analysis and collection to AI programs. AI hasn’t reached the stage where it can make decisions, but they are great at reviewing data.

Artificial Intelligence comes with Sincere Feelings

The computer’s emotionless, monotone vocalization in 2001’s HAL highlighted the cold lack of humanity. Marketing emails are often dry and boring. These emails are not engaging. When an email is too dry, who would read beyond the first paragraph or even just the first few lines?

Sending generic emails to thousands of people results in a “one-size-fits-all” email that does not fit anyone. Generic emails do not evoke strong emotions in people, because they aren’t tailored to feelings. AI programs may not be able to develop empathy, but they can help determine human behavior.

Do certain recipients like bright, cheerful, or even funny emails? Others are more likely to respond to calls to action that are serious. Usually, the total number of recipients is divided into subgroups. Each subgroup has its distinct reaction to promotional emails. That’s fine! You need to craft emails that are most effective for each group. AI can help by analyzing response rates, which allows for a more in-depth look at personal preferences. By gaining a better understanding of personal preferences, marketing campaigns can be personalized.

All kinds of data can be used to create a winning campaign. Imagine that the AI system showed a segment of users who checked their emails constantly between 2 AM and 4:00 AM. A different, and possibly lucrative response could be achieved by tailoring emails for “night owls”. AI can help a human to craft an interesting email that targets these night owls.

AI is the messenger of bad news, but it’s good

It would be a wonderful world if artificial intelligence programs consistently revealed incredible click-through rates and emails that were opened consistently. It’s just not the way life is. Reality sets in for all campaigns. A large percentage of people will not respond to emails. People ignore promotional emails because they get so many. Do not let their actions defeat your success goals! You can always improve metrics and percentages. It is better to have a small increase than to see the figures stagnate.

Why are the numbers so low? If AI shows metrics that show an excessive amount of emails weren’t opened in March, was the problem during the whole month or just a particular week? You can narrow the problem down to a specific week and then examine the email sent. You may then be able to focus on the issue. Maybe the subject line was not compelling enough. The subject may not have been timed correctly for the week. You may have announced spring too soon, and people still had a winter mentality.

A high rate of Unsubscribes would be even worse than low open rates. Someone found the content so compelling that they wanted to view it again. Your product or service may have lost favor with some potential customers. Unsubscribing is a common occurrence. It’s possible that they weren’t serious at all. However, you don’t wish to lose people who have opted in because they are genuinely interested. After someone unsubscribes it is very hard to get them back. A smart fix should be implemented when large numbers of people unsubscribe.

You need to have a clear idea of the problem to find a solution. Once again, AI saves the day. AI can provide insight into the current situation. Not the best thing to do is tell the crew and captain that the ship is drifting into dangerous waters. Is it better to continue on the same path and assume that nothing is wrong?

Artificial Intelligence lends a helping hand

Big Data has a lot of importance. The ability to analyze large amounts of data is crucial for improving email marketing metrics. In truth, even small amounts of information can be helpful. The human being has limitations in what it can do. Artificial intelligence can help overcome these limitations and ensure that an email marketing campaign is never unable to reach its full potential.

Artificial Intelligence in Emails

1. Amazon’s artificial intelligence helps it to send highly relevant emails with the most engaging product suggestions.

These emails take into account the most recent purchases, searches, and other behaviors of the subscribers.

This strategy has been adopted by several ecommerce companies to increase conversion rates and sales.

2. Netflix utilizes systems to evaluate the data gathered from the user’s watch list and trending shows. The algorithms use a recommendation engine to create tailored recommendations for each user. This will keep subscribers engaged and reduce subscriber churn while improving email marketing metrics.

Wrapping Up

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a technology that has enabled a hyper-personalized inbox experience for subscribers. It can detect patterns and details that humans cannot. Artificial intelligence can help you create emails that are more persuasive and have better metrics.
