New release: AVADA FAQs app for Shopify

Before the social media boom, marketing experts focused their efforts mainly on emails as the most potent channel for generating prospects' interest and nurturing them. However, as a time-tested approach, [email marketing](https://blog.avada.io/resources/create-an-email-marketing-campaign.html) remains one of the most efficient methods to drive email marketing leads.

Despite the diversity of marketing channels, brands rely heavily on the ability of emails to guarantee a high level of customer engagement and lasting interest in products and services. 

It’s no secret that email marketing is geared toward driving targeted actions like subscriptions, purchases, or downloads. The one thing that hasn’t changed when it comes to this method is that marketers have to be strategic with regard to [email campaigns](https://blog.avada.io/resources/best-email-marketing-campaigns.html). And email lead generation is no exception.

Today, the need <a href="https://phonexa.com/lms-sync/lead-distribution/" target="_blank">for leads</a> is undeniable and maybe even more significant than it used to be several years ago. So let's examine the reasons behind this need and how brands can ensure that their lead generation efforts yield good results.

## Email Leads Explained

What are email leads? Every email lead you generate is someone who expressed some level of interest in your offer and shared contact information through an online form.

Why do brands need email leads? The goal is to nurture quality email marketing leads and convert them into loyal customers. 

Marketers often spend a good deal of time researching prospects, creating [buyer personas](https://blog.avada.io/resources/buyer-persona.html), crafting specific content, and personalizing offers. Therefore, generating quality leads is crucial to increasing the probability that all future outreach programs and email campaigns generate positive ROI. 

In a nutshell, quality email leads are one of the core sources of your revenue.

## How to Drive Quality Email Leads

First of all, that's no easy mission to accomplish. Here's why: brands often overfocus on the nurturing stage of the lead generation process. Sure, turning cold leads into warm leads through outreach programs is critical for every user acquisition strategy. 

Brands must learn how to properly generate email leads in addition to using effective [content marketing strategies](https://blog.avada.io/resources/content-marketing-strategy.html).

### Identify Your Audience

That’s the very first step every company needs to take. Businesses need to know who their ideal customers are before launching any marketing campaign. Marketers can then use this information to develop a variety of buyer personas based on the issues and concerns that are important to their target audience.

### Offer Clear Value

Half the battle is won when you know who you're going after. When developing or scaling your content strategy, keep in mind the value you're providing to your customers. You won't be able to achieve value alignment unless you do so.

Let's say that you own an online store and decided to start your email lead generation campaign by targeting first-time visitors. In this case, your goals are to motivate a visitor to make a purchase and ensure that the visitor will become a repeat buyer.

![Actionable Email Marketing Tips For Lead Generation](https://cdn2.mageplaza.com/media/general/rebecca-minkoff-store.png)

Here’s an example from the <a href="https://www.rebeccaminkoff.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored noreferrer">Rebecca Minkoff</a> store. In this instance, the store offers a discount on the first purchase, acquires new high-quality email leads, and targets only first-time buyers.

While the offer is not in the form of a pop-up, it proves time and time again to be a fruitful approach, with great success in nurturing post-purchase relationships.

### Consider Intent and Timing

It is common for marketers to collect email leads via blog posts. It is essential, however, to avoid interrupting the user experience by promoting the offer before another paragraphs have been read.

When a visitor opens a blog post, it is rarely a good idea to display large interstitials. This strategy has a significant negative impact because it dominates the display and discourages readers from interacting with your content. Consequently, you have high bounce rates.

If your timing and intent are right, chances are you’ll get a visitor to subscribe to your newsletters and stick with your brand for good.

![hubspot-captures-email-leads](https://cdn2.mageplaza.com/media/general/hubspot-captures-email-leads.png)

This example illustrates how <a href="https://www.hubspot.com/" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored noreferrer" target="_blank">HubSpot</a> captures email leads on blog posts by offering expert insights in regular [email newsletters](https://blog.avada.io/resources/design-email-newsletter.html) to readers. In this case, it’s a blog post on customer success metrics, which means that a visitor is looking for more insights on this specific topic.

The marketers' goal here is to align the messaging on the scroll-triggered pop-up with the article's topic. If you’re struggling to align the messaging, try using an SEO tool like <a href="https://ahrefs.com/" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored noreferrer" target="_blank">Ahrefs</a>. It can help you determine the keywords your blog post ranks for and understand how you can tailor it to meet the needs of your readers.

![leads-on-blog-posts-by-harper-bazaar](https://cdn2.mageplaza.com/media/general/leads-on-blog-posts-by-harper-bazaar.png)

Here’s another example of a behavior-triggered pop-up used for capturing email leads on blog posts by <a href="https://www.harpersbazaar.com/" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored noreferrer" target="_blank">Harper’s BAZAAR</a>. This is a classic approach many brands utilize when fighting for the attention of the target audience. Since many readers practice comparison shopping, this lead message, in particular, is not likely to leave the readers feeling indifferent.

### Build Lead Magnets

The logical next step is to process all the pain points and create resources and content your prospects will find valuable and useful. 

There’s no denying that creating lead magnets is one of the most efficient ways to provide a solution for a specific issue your prospects have. Essentially, it can be any piece of content, including checklists, templates, webinars, free tools, gated email courses, etc.

Let’s take a closer look at some of the most popular types of gated content.

#### Data Reports

Creating a data-backed lead magnet is not only an ethical bribe. It’s a surefire way to convert more sales, significantly grow your [email list](https://blog.avada.io/resources/build-email-list.html), and establish brand authority.

![data-reports-of-hubpost](https://cdn2.mageplaza.com/media/general/data-reports-of-hubpost.png)

#### eBooks

This is probably one of the most common yet effective lead magnet forms. Brands often use several well-performing blog posts to repurpose them into eBooks.

![ebooks-phonexa](https://cdn2.mageplaza.com/media/general/ebooks-phonexa.png)

This approach can be incredibly effective and practical if a topiс you're covering is complex and requires additional knowledge. For instance, it can be an eBook covering specific SEO tactics, UX/UI trends, or a new product.

**You might read post**:

#### Checklists and Templates

Prospects get value right away through these types of gated content. They can use ready-made checklists and [templates](https://blog.avada.io/resources/best-email-marketing-templates.html), customize them, resize, save, share, or even print them.

![checklists-and-templates-adobe-express](https://cdn2.mageplaza.com/media/general/checklists-and-templates-adobe-express.png)

While such templates might seem relatively easy to create, brands often use these lead magnets to save their subscribers time and effort. Besides, helping your audience customize and design something from scratch builds a strong sense of trust.

### Ensure Engagement

Let's face it: earning the attention of your target audience can be tricky. That's why brands often resort to leveraging social media. Social media can be a powerful lead source. Businesses often use it to run paid ad campaigns, cooperate with influencers, or post valuable content. 

But social media is merely one of the channels that can help businesses drive email marketing leads. Marketers typically leverage numerous email lead sources, including blog articles, podcast content, partnerships, and lead magnets.

Let’s say that you’ve managed to get prospects to subscribe to your email newsletters. Now, you need to keep them engaged. 

How can you do that? Here’s a short checklist:

- Use a catchy and intriguing - but not clickbait - subject line
- Make sure to communicate value and strengthen the brand image
- Utilize [A/B testing](https://blog.avada.io/resources/ab-testing.html) to evaluate different subject lines and versions of your newsletters
- Personalize and automate your email efforts
- Gain and use data to power your campaigns
- Encourage your prospects to take action

When it comes to email lead generation, getting inside the minds of your audience is not the only challenge. The good news is automation can help you tackle most obstacles.

### Leverage Marketing Automation

From the marketing perspective, every brand needs to utilize the right email marketing tools and automation software. Why? Taking their technology to the next level is by far the most effective way for businesses to reach their optimal ROI. 

Marketing automation platforms allow brands to bring together multiple marketing channels and create more efficient workflows - all while collecting campaign data so that businesses can get the most from their marketing efforts.

For instance, <a href="https://phonexa.com" rel="nofollow noopener sponsored noreferrer" target="_blank">Phonexa</a>, an all-in-one marketing automation solution for calls, leads, clicks, email, SMS, accounting, and more, offers innovative functionality paired with effortless simplicity. With a singular marketing solution at hand, brands can get critical data, put it to work, and maximize their audience reach and earnings. 

Automation has an unmatched potential when it comes to running email lead generation campaigns. Let’s look at some of the benefits:

- Access to in-depth analytics and email marketing statistics
- Ability to leverage behavioral segmentation
- A wide variety of email templates
- Accurate deliverability measurement of different email channels
- Automated A/B testing of up to six different subject lines and templates
- In-depth email analytics
- Unlimited automation management 
- Seamless API and third-party integration

Ultimately, utilizing an email marketing solution as part of a singular marketing suite can help brands send personalized messages to their audience, assess their performance, tackle any deliverability issues, and cultivate email lists.

## Final Thoughts

Email lead generation is not only about successfully generating leads. It’s also about collecting much-needed information on prospects and building lasting connections with them to make a sale.


Brands need to remember that what’s measured can be improved, and email lead generation efforts are no different.

Data can tell you everything about your active and future campaigns. With the right email marketing tools, you can track, test, and optimize every aspect of your campaigns to ensure outstanding results.

That same year, e-retail sales reached an astonishing <a href="https://www.statista.com/topics/871/online-shopping/#dossierContents__outerWrapper" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">4.2 trillion dollars</a>, and it’s not letting up anytime soon.

So, how do you set yourself apart and keep your business afloat in this highly competitive market? Unfortunately, offering a quality product or a service is simply not enough. You need to capture [your audience’s attention](https://instasize.com/learn/6-attention-grabbing-tricks-for-video-marketing) and you need to do it fast. 

This is where eCommerce video marketing comes in. A video is a great tool for bringing your product or service closer to your customers, increasing your brand awareness, and [boosting your sales](https://blog.avada.io/resources/increase-sales-with-email-marketing.html).

In collaboration with one of the [best video production companies](https://www.designrush.com/agency/video-production), we’ve created a list of seven easy-to-follow tips on how to make videos that bridge the gap between in-store and online shopping and drive sales for your eCommerce business.

Here are the steps we’ll cover:

 1. Identify your target audience
 2. Decide what types of eCommerce videos work best for you
 3. Make sure your videos are SEO optimized
 4. Exploit user-generated content videos (UGC)
 5. Go live
 6. Add emotions to your videos
 7. Incorporate videos in your eCommerce marketing strategy

Let’s get started!

![](https://cdn2.avada.io/media/resources/target-audience.png)

## 1. Identify Your Target Audience

Like any other [marketing strategy](https://blog.avada.io/resources/marketing-strategy.html), a video marketing strategy also starts with identifying your target audience. You need to have a clear insight into your [buyer personas](https://blog.avada.io/resources/buyer-persona.html) to recognize the kind of content your audience wants to consume.

The information you should collect when identifying your target audience includes:

 - **Demographic data** – age, gender, ethnicity, income, race, etc. This information will help you understand your audience’s background.
 - **Geographic data**
 - **Socio-demographic data** – lifestyle, social class, hobbies, interests, beliefs, etc. This information will provide you with a more in-depth analysis of your audience and help you tailor your videos to drive interest and engagement. 

One of the most useful tools that can help you understand your audience better is <a href="https://analytics.google.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Google Analytics</a>. This tool will provide you with a detailed report, containing the following information:

 - Where the traffic comes from
 - Which content on your website works and which doesn’t
 - Which keywords you are ranking for
 - Where incoming traffic lands
 - Which channels are performing the best

Before you launch your video marketing campaign, make sure you are creating content that is valuable to your audience. Upon seeing your videos, you want them to think: “ This is just what I was looking for!”

## 2. Decide What Types of eCommerce Videos Work Best for Your Brand

Typically, we can divide eCommerce videos into these seven categories:

 - Product close-up
 - Product demo
 - Testimonials
 - Explainers
 - Interactive
 - SEO/Founder’s message
 - Lifestyle

Let’s examine these categories in more detail.

### Product close-up
Close-up videos serve to bring your product closer to your audience by presenting it from different angles in detail and pointing out its specific features. This way, you allow your viewers to examine your product and make a more calculated decision before buying it.

### Product demo 

Product demo videos typically feature a speaker showing how your product works and describing its top features. These videos should explain to your viewers why your product is the best solution or answer to their problems.

### Testimonials

What better way to convince your audience to buy your product than to offer them your satisfied customers' testimonials? Social proof is one of the best tools you can use to demonstrate the value of your product.

When you give people evidence of how your product effectively solves problems for other people, you help your audience bridge the “trust gap” in their customer journey. <a href="https://www.vocalreferences.com/wp/blog/video-testimonials/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Testimonials and reviews</a> are often the key factors that drive a customer to conversion.

### Explainer

Explainer videos might be the right choice for you if you sell products or services that aren’t instantly understood. Unlike the product demo, this type of video concentrates on explaining the reasons why your product is the perfect solution for a specific problem and how to use it properly.

### Interactive

Interactive videos might be your best choice if you want to engage your audience and make them feel more involved in your brand.
Typically, these videos include a [call-to-action](https://blog.avada.io/resources/write-converting-call-to-action.html), where your viewers are asked to take some type of action – take a quiz, click on the link that will take them to your business website, etc.

### SEO/Founder’s message

This video type is the least popular among marketers, but it can be a useful tool for personalizing your brand and forming a deeper connection with your audience.

### Lifestyle

Lifestyle videos demonstrate how real people use your products as a part of their everyday routine. These videos help your viewers envision the exact way your products can improve their life.
When choosing the right video type for your eCommerce business, you don’t have to opt for one type. Try using different approaches to convey different messages. Ultimately, the type or types of videos you choose will be those that make the most sense for your offering, brand and audience.

### 3. Make Sure Your Videos are SEO Optimized

Having a <a href="https://www.searchenginejournal.com/how-to-optimize-videos/422208/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">video SEO strategy</a> in place will help you improve your page ranking and increase your visibility.

Follow these seven practical eCommerce video tips for SEO:

 1. **Conduct keyword research** – this is always the first step in optimizing any part of your business for search engines.
 2. **Create an attractive video thumbnail** – a [thumbnail](https://blog.avada.io/css/thumbnails) is the first thing your viewers see when your video appears on the results page. Create an interesting thumbnail that will show exactly what you are trying to rank for.
 3. **Add transcription to your videos** – the more text you manage to attach to your video, the better you’ll rank in Search Engine Result Pages (SERPs).
 4. **Make your video mobile-friendly** – not only does Google consider mobile-friendliness as a ranking factor, but the majority of your customers may be using a mobile device to interact with your brand.
 5. **Add a video sitemap** – a video sitemap serves to show all vital information about the content of your video. Not only does it help search engines gain more context but it also serves as an add-on for your site’s general sitemap.
 6. **Include your keywords in the video’s filename** – optimizing this way will also help you rank in search for your preferred keywords.
 7. **Authorize the embedding of your video** – Allow other users to embed your videos on their sites. In return, you will earn more inbound links and Google will recognize you as an authority in your field.

![](https://cdn2.avada.io/media/resources/video-optimized.jpg)

## 4. Exploit User-Generated Content Videos (UGC)

UGC is authentic, brand-specific content created by your customers and posted on social media platforms or other channels. Not only is it cost-effective but it is the ultimate tool for increasing 
conversion rates and boosting sales.

UGC is another way you can provide your customers with social proof. It is much like word of mouth, but the word is spread much faster in the digital world!

User-generated content is a strategy that pays off, but how do you encourage engagement? Here are three tips for collecting user-generated videos:

### Organize a hashtag contest

Encourage your audience to use your branded hashtag and post it on their social media profiles. In return, offer an attractive prize to the winner of your contest.

### Get familiar with influencer trends

We often see influencers setting new trends in fashion, technology, and other industries while their army of followers consumes every content they make in a frenzy. 

Use this newly-emerged marketing platform and hire an influencer you think will speak best to your audience to create UGC for your eCommerce business.

### Find UGC creators through the marketplace

There are sites like <a href="https://billo.app/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Billo</a>, that offer the service of making authentic videos for your products. On this particular site, you can create a task, wait for creators to apply, and choose the one you want to create a custom-made UGC video for your product.

You can choose between more than 3,500 skilled creators at a starting price of $59.

![](https://cdn2.avada.io/media/resources/live-stream.jpg)

## 5. Go Live

Live streaming has been getting serious attention as of late. Live videos offer you the opportunity to interact with your audience in real-time. You can stream a video of your latest product, reveal behind-the-scenes moments, or prepare a Q&A session and answer common questions live.
This approach will help you get more brand exposure and create tighter bonds with your audience.

## 6. Add Emotion to Your Videos

People tend to base their decisions on emotions rather than logic. According to the analysis of the IPAdataBank, ad campaigns with purely emotional content performed almost <a href="https://www.neurosciencemarketing.com/blog/articles/emotional-ads-work-best.htm#sthash.yu8l31Jn.dpuf" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">two times better</a> than those with mainly rational content. This goes to show that people feel first and think second.

Make videos that convey powerful emotions to your audience. The best way to do this is to focus on storytelling. When you add an emotional story to your video, people will connect with your brand on a more personal level and the video will stay longer in their minds. Making your brand memorable is key to building a loyal following. 

## 7. Incorporate Videos in Your eCommerce Marketing Strategy

Now that you know who your audience is and what kind of videos you want to make, it’s time to find a way to integrate them into your marketing strategy. Here’s how:

### Integrate your videos into your eCommerce website

Placing your videos on your home page, product pages, about us page, etc. will increase the average time your audience spends on your website.

### Post your videos on Social Media platforms

Make sure your videos are optimized according to the platform in use. When it comes to the video length, follow <a href="https://blog.hubspot.com/marketing/how-long-should-videos-be-on-instagram-twitter-facebook-youtube" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">these recommendations</a>:

 - Facebook – 1 minute
 - Twitter – 45 seconds
 - YouTube – 2 minutes
 - Instagram – 30 seconds 

Another thing you should do when posting on [social media platforms](https://blog.avada.io/resources/social-media-platforms-for-business.html) is to include subtitles in your videos. It might not seem important at first but studies have shown that <a href="https://www.americanpressinstitute.org/need-to-know/try-this-at-home/85-percent-facebook-videos-watched-without-sound/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">85% of all Facebook videos</a> are watched without sound.
