The Great Email Debate -- Rich Media V. Text
If there is one thing that gets marketing geeks all sweaty and excited, it's something new that promises to help us get the attention of our target market.
It's little wonder that marketers are excited about the possibility of using rich media email (HTML and Flash are the most common) as a way to jazz up emails and make them more interesting.
Being able to use rich media email as a marketing tool allows marketers to do things they never could do in the past.
Retailers, for instance, can send an email with a picture of a close-out product and a quick "buy me" button, a strategy that has been proven effective for increasing sales.
With Flash technology, you can even send a full multimedia presentation via email, the perfect digital salesperson.
If you look to the leaders in opt-in list marketing, however, you will find that 99% of them still use plain text email as their media of choice.
People with huge opt-in lists such as Cory Rudl, Ken Envoy, Terry Dean, and Marlon Sanders, all use text formatted email messages.
There are a number of reasons why they refuse to change to HTML, but the most important is that it creates results.
They have proven time and time again that the best format is still
plain text. Results count. Here are some reasons why text email is still the way to go:
~ Most of the new spam filters (software that kills spam before it hits your inbox, see "resources" below) will *automatically* delete HTML email unless the user adds you to his/her friends list.
~ People receive mostly text email from their friends and associates, rich media doesn't come from "people" it comes from "companies". Who would you rather buy from?
~ Many email clients still don't handle HTML well, so in order to reach everyone with a high-quality message, you need to produce to the lowest common denominator.
~ Rich media takes longer to load which frustrates prospects. Frustration is a state-of-mind that effective email marketers avoid like the plague.
~ Finally, and this is strictly my opinion, Text email generally looks better and is easier to read as long as it is formatted correctly.
I've decided to go with the experts and keep my ezine in the text only format.
