Email Marketing Strategy and Execution
When it comes to connecting with your customers, there is no substitute for email marketing.
However, gaining access to your customer’s inbox is a privilege. If you don’t deliver value, you can count on those privileges being revoked.

Marketing Automation Strategy and Execution
Marketing Automation is a modern marketing strategy consisting of targeted, personalized campaigns based on prospects’ past interactions with your company. Marketing Automation (Marketing Automation) is no longer just for Enterprise-level businesses and with a long buying cycle. The certified automation experts at VIB Marketing will help you explore a solution to fit your business needs, budget, and future goals.
Marketing Automation efforts start with an analysis of current email tactics, if any, and a phased strategy to support short and long-term goals. This first phase typically involves designing email templates and creating a few simple drip campaigns to quickly produce results. Combined with lead-generation tactics, this can be a very effective step towards nurturing leads into customers.
Based on goals, budget, and the success of phase one – a secondary phase can then be implemented to add in automation, segmentation and landing page development. Personalization is the key to many successful business models, and the ability of Marketing Automation to remove manual work and to target customers based on behavior is simplified by the platforms we use.
We match your business with the best Marketing Automation platform to allow for ease of use and scalability once the initial build is completed. Additional phases can include data integration, deliverability audits, triggered messaging, lead scoring and grading, multi-segment dynamic content, and using Marketing Automation as a marketing hub.
We customize the platform, manage the tools, create the content, and handle your database. We can also perform audits on an existing Marketing Automation platform, organize and manage your instance, and help build a strategy that suits your needs. Some companies invest in the platform, but don’t have the expertise to get true value out of the tools – that is where VIB fills the gap.
