Grow Your New Bern Business With Professional Newsletter Services

Email newsletters provide direct access to your customers' inboxes, giving you a powerful communication channel that you own and control. For local New Bern businesses, newsletters deliver several key benefits:

• Higher Customer Retention: Regular communication keeps your business top-of-mind, encouraging repeat visits and purchases.
• Increased Revenue: Email marketing delivers an average ROI of $36 for every $1 spent, making it one of the most cost-effective marketing channels available.
• Targeted Local Messaging: Connect with your community by highlighting local events, seasonal specials, and content relevant to New Bern residents.
• Build Trust and Authority: Deliver valuable content that positions your business as a trusted expert in your field.
• Drive Immediate Action: Promote special offers, events, and limited-time deals that create urgency and prompt customers to act.

Unlike social media, newsletters aren't affected by algorithm changes, ensuring your message reaches your audience consistently and predictably.

We've designed our process to minimize your time investment while ensuring your newsletters authentically represent your business. Here's what to expect:

• Initial Consultation: 60-90 minutes to discuss your business goals, target audience, and newsletter strategy.
• Monthly Input: Just 20-30 minutes to review content plans and provide business updates.
• Approval Process: 15-20 minutes to review and approve each newsletter before sending.
• Performance Review: Optional 30-minute monthly call to discuss results and strategy adjustments.

Our team handles all the time-consuming aspects: content creation, design, technical setup, list management, sending, and performance tracking. You're welcome to be as involved as you'd like, but most clients appreciate our ability to produce excellent results with minimal demands on their schedule.

We offer three levels of involvement:

• Hands-Off: We handle everything after initial setup with minimal input required.
• Collaborative: Regular check-ins with opportunities for input and direction.
• Strategic Partner: More involved approach with detailed planning sessions and performance analysis.

We take a data-driven approach to measuring newsletter success, focusing on metrics that directly impact your business goals:

• Engagement Metrics:
  • Open rates (industry benchmark: 15-25%)
  • Click-through rates (industry benchmark: 2-5%)
  • Forwarding/sharing rates
  • Reply rates and customer feedback
• List Health Metrics:
  • Subscription growth rate
  • Unsubscribe rates (healthy target: below 0.5%)
  • Bounce rates and list cleanliness
• Business Impact Metrics:
  • Conversion rates (appointments, purchases, form submissions)
  • Revenue attributed to newsletter campaigns
  • Customer retention and reactivation rates
  • Cost per acquisition/conversion

Every client receives a custom dashboard showing these key metrics, with monthly performance reports that include actionable insights. We establish realistic benchmarks based on your industry and continuously optimize your newsletters to improve results.

Most importantly, we align our measurement with your specific business objectives - whether that's increasing in-store traffic, boosting online sales, generating appointments, or building brand awareness in the New Bern community.
