This is a 4+ minute passage from Laurie Beasley’s longer live radio program she hosted on SLMA Radio. To listen to the whole program, go here: Incorporating the Six Universal Buying Motives to Improve Email Copy and Response Rates ----more---- Most email programs are failing, dismal, weak and ineffective says Laurie Beasley. Failure is usually the result of poor copy writing (subject line and body) that leads to low opening rates and truncated sales. In this podcast Laurie reminds us of the Six Universal Buying Motives which, when used religiously will lead to higher opening rates and more qualified prospects. Managing email marketing technology has its daily challenges she believes, which take up a lot of the creative effort for email programs. We must return, she says to the benefits of product features and the reasons why people buy. She implores copywriters to think about what the prospect’s perspective is and not what the product managers and engineers have surmised. About our guest host: LAURIE B.

Recently we sat down with Laurie Beasley, President of Beasley Direct and Online Marketing, Inc, and also President of the Direct Marketing Association of Northern California, to ask her about new trends in B2B marketing. In this episode she describes a new type of campaign that is becoming very popular, often labeled “Meeting Maker Campaigns.” These are campaigns targeted at key accounts, which are comprised of multiple touches that often include a dimensional direct mail campaign, email campaign and detailed tele-prospecting effort. The goal of the campaign is to schedule a 30 minute meeting or demonstration and the prospect is rewarded with a nice gift as a thank you for attending. Ms. Beasley describes a campaign she ran for a cloud services technology company last year that resulted in 230 demo appointments being scheduled from a list of 1,300 target accounts.
