  1. Creating Your Email Marketing Strategy with Constant Contact - Pearl Lemon Reviews What is Email Marketing?  Email marketing utilizes email services to send out marketing campaigns and  advertisements to your audience.  You can create a sign-up form to gain potential audience members, and the  email can also be sent to them, to try and turn them from a potential lead into a  customer. 

  2. Email marketing is one of the biggest methods of converting followers from  potential leads to loyal customers. It is widely used by marketers and is a highly  recommended tool to use for small businesses and entrepreneurs.  Who Should Use Email Marketing?  All businesses should use some form of email marketing to continue creating a  bond between you and your customers – but it will mostly benefit small  businesses.  Small businesses will see the most benefit because their brand is not completely  built up yet. The more audience you gain, the more potential leads can be turned  into customers – which creates a funnel effect, and increases your profit.  What is Constant Contact?  Constant Contact​ is an email marketing service that helps you build email  campaigns.
