Let’s Remember Why We’re Here - Empathy Mapping

It is easy to forget who your target audience is when you’ve been marketing your particular product or service for a long time. How do you keep your ideal customer at the center of everything you do? Empathy mapping. Simply put, empathy mapping helps to keep your customer and their wants and needs at the center of your marketing strategy.

REDSHIFT'S THOUGHTS:

It is easy to lose sight of your customer. Odds are there have been times when you have spoken to the customer how you want to speak to them, tried to sell to them when you wanted to sell. Empahy mapping is the perfect exercise to reorient yourself and your team to your customer.

How the Recent Apple iOS Change is Really Impacting Email Marketing

Back in September 2021, Apple made a major iOS update that essentially rendered email open rate as a useless campaign metric. As a result, like most digital marketers, RedShift shifted our focus to other data points and KPIs.

REDSHIFT'S THOUGHTS:

In a privacy-first world, digital marketers must remain agile when it comes to email marketing. While open rate is a good-to-know metric, it is not the only one, nor the most important. Click rate and conversions from emails are more important KPIs for most of our clients and their goals.
