Making email campaigns in a social world
What they actually mean(still journalists)
*Some* of the things we previously used Email for,
can now be better done with things like Slack (for
some work conversations) and social media (for
some personal chat conversations) is dead! but
actually email is still the preferred channel for
activities like engaging with brands and cross
company work. Even for Millennials.
“
Millennials overtake Baby
Boomers as America’s
largest generation
“
A note on “Millennials” tho
There are 83.5 million of them*,
so don’t treat them all the same 😡*In the USA
All the design cues came from Print
• Letter format
• Lots of text
• Batch & Blast
• Everyone opened email on one of these:

Litmus State of Email 2017
• Get your message across in 2 seconds
• Use typography principles
• Use engaging images (without only using images)
• Use Bullet points, subheadings, short sentences
• Use social techniques, not direct mail
1. Create content for
short attention spans
• Add extra content for people who have more time
• Consider the content hierarchy
2. Whilst also
considering longer
attention spans
• Tweets are 140 280 characters
• Instagram is a square photo + a sentence
• Snapchat is 8 seconds
#Kisswebinar
3. Take cues
from social
• Don’t worry about putting everything above the fold
• Instead, get their interest. They’ll scroll.
4. Embrace the
scroll
• Touch screen, make it easy to click/tap
• Don’t build everything as images
• Short, punchy subject lines
#Kisswebinar
5. Design for
mobile
• Build up trust from users
• Don’t break it
• Especially on Black Friday 👀
