 Your Payroll Biz E-mail Marketing Strategy: 6 Easy Steps
Do you want more payroll/HCM sales leads from your e-mail marketing efforts? If you do, you will find the following steps of particular interest (and value). Step One: Segment Your Databases - Before you start designing, writing, and sending a series of e-mail marketing campaigns, you need to segment your target audience the same way you go to market; therefore, we recommend creating databases that fall into these general categories:
After segmenting your lists by target audience, it will be a lot easier to develop content that is relevant to each database on file. Step Two: Clean Up Your “Prospect And Referral Partner” Databases* – It is vital to remove the e-mail addresses that will cause your account to be blacklisted/flagged when using services like Constant Contact, Mail Chimp, etc. THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO YOUR CLIENT DATABASE. Remove the e-mail addresses* that end in:
Remove the “ROLE” e-mail addresses* that begins with:
*If you are buying a database of e-mail addresses, this is a critical process to do. Step Three: Determine Your Content And Low-Risk Offer - As I tell all our clients, “Content is king.” That said, it can be helpful to outline the message you want to include in each e-mail campaign. Remember, don’t forget to add a low-risk offer. Step Four: Determine Your Company’s Frequency And Goals – You can send your payroll clients more e-mail marketing campaigns than a prospect or referral partner. From my experience, I always recommend sending at least three e-mails a month to help gain maximum visibility in the marketplace. Remember, content is king, and don’t be too self-serving when writing a campaign.
Step Five: Develop An E-mail Marketing Calendar – To ensure your campaigns are being sent on a regular schedule, create an e-mail marketing calendar. Not only will this help you and your team stay on target, but it will also help you avoid any last-minute campaigns – which tend to be loaded with grammar and spelling errors, broken links, and less-than-engaging subject lines. Step Six: Determine If A Salesperson’s Follow Up Call Is Needed – To maximize the sales leads generated from your e-mail marketing campaigns, it is imperative to determine if a follow-up phone call is necessary. If it is, take the following steps:
Send This e-Mail After Leaving A Voicemail Message. After you and/or your salespeople leave a voicemail, make sure they send an e-mail to follow up on their voice-mail message (see below). First Name: I just called and left you a message as I wanted to follow up on an e-mail we sent to you about 8:30 a.m. today (the one for the ________ offer). If you want to learn how we can (reduce or increase your ___________), I have a few ideas that will help your business – just return my call or send me a quick e-mail for the best time(s) for us to talk. Look forward to talking soon! Name Company Name Phone e-mail Address P.S. If you want to read what some CPAs and clients are saying about us, I have attached a few testimonials for you.

 What To Do When A Hot Payroll Prospect Ghosts You
You just sent a proposal to a hot payroll prospect. And although this person had a strong interest in switching to a new payroll service, they ghosted you after receiving your proposal.
Send This e-Mail To A Prospect Who Ghosted You (After My 2/3 Call Strategy). After leaving a few voicemails, I highly recommend sending the e-mail below. [First Name]: I have called a few times in the past few (days/weeks) and have not heard back from you. And since I want to be professional in my follow up efforts with you, it would help me a lot if you hit the reply key and type in the number that represents your situation; I will take it from there. #1: Glad you are touching base. Please call me (today/this week/next week) to discuss the details of your proposal. #2: Thanks anyway (your first name), but there isn't any interest in moving forward with your company. #3: The timing isn't right; check back with me in 2 to 3 months. Again, if you would hit the reply key right now and type the number that best describes your situation, I would greatly appreciate it! Name – Title P.S. You will find attached a one-page list of client testimonials from businesses (who switched from ____ to us, similar in size to yours, etc.).

 How To Stop Looking Like A
Are you tired and looking like a small "me-too" payroll service? If you are, you're not alone, as many payroll pros use the same tired old lines in their marketing messaging - which can make it difficult to stand out from the competition. Some common marketing/sales phrases include:
You Have Very Little Time To Capture A Payroll Prospect’s Attention. Your marketing messages must resonate with your target audience; if not, they will skip over your e-mail campaign, stop reading your website, or only look at price as the key differentiator. Get In The Mind Of A Prospect Before Writing Your Next Campaign. Research has proven that the average person will spend less than 15 seconds reading your website or 1.0 - 1.5 seconds reading a subject line in their inbox. And during this time, their brain will process some of the questions listed below to determine if they should continue reading to learn more or open your e-mail message:
Every prospect/referral partner is just like you; they have limited time to learn about your payroll service as they are trying to do more work with fewer resources. And the more in sync your messages are with someone's problems, frustrations, annoyances, and needs, the quicker you will get their attention. Period. Executive Summary: With the average person exposed to thousands of marketing messages daily, what are your plans to change what you say?
