Email marketing has the highest ROI of any digital marketing channel. Yet most service businesses, restaurants, and local businesses ignore it completely. Here's why that's a mistake.
Email for Service Businesses
Monthly tips newsletter: A plumber sends monthly home maintenance tips. When a pipe bursts, who do they call? The plumber who's been in their inbox every month.
Seasonal reminders: An HVAC company sends "Winter is coming — book your furnace check" emails every October. Booked solid before the rush.
Review requests: Automated email 3 days after service asking for a Google review. Builds your review count on autopilot.
Email for Restaurants
Weekly specials: Send this week's menu, events, or special offers every Thursday. Drives weekend reservations.
Birthday/anniversary: Collect birthdates. Send a free dessert offer on their birthday. Personal touch that drives visits.
