MenuHow can I reach people from our registered site members who have not bought something and are not on our email list?
Answers
It sounds like you have their email address, so I recommend using it to target them on Facebook and Twitter through their custom audiences program. You can upload the lists there and specifically reach these users ( and lookalikes). Twitter even has an ad format that send a targeted email subscription ad with an embedded form.
Your only email option is to send a transactional or relationship message such as a website maintenance, password reset request or terms of service update. As long as the primary purpose is non-commercial, you can include some promotion of the newsletter below the other copy.
You should be able to send an email to people who registered for your site, unless your privacy policy says you won't. There's noting wrong with sending them an email to "update their info" and offering them the newsletter at the same time.
There are a lot of variables but the first thing that comes to my mind is coming up with some offers and CTAs that will allow you to convert them into email signups. Then you should be segmenting your email list based on the core wants, needs, and interest of the members in order to send them targeted offers. Sounds like you have plenty of leads who have opted in already, so it's really a function of reactivating the customers who have already bought something while making lower level value offers to get the rest engaged. Depending on the business this can go a lot of ways, but you have a nice setup already with a good set of leads and members. They just need to be activated with good offers and a solid marketing funnel.
As others have said, if you have their email list you can create an audience through Facebook so that you can use re-targeting ads to get them to register for your newsletter list (assuming there's a specific newsletter list).
You can also set up a retargeting pixel to target everybody on Facebook who's visited your site/URL to target "warmish" through Facebook ads.

What is the industry average conversion rate for cold emailing?
Cold emailing is just as bad for you and the recipient. Even if you have the perfect list, the attempt to sell in a cold email is rarely going to be effective. You're better off curating the list to the top prospects, find a mutual connection on LinkedIn or even just cold-invite them on LinkedIn,. Worst case scenario, send a 'permission pass' email where you simply gauge interest and let them know you won't be emailing them again if there's no interest. Keep it very short, non-commercial with just solid information/links to web, and an easy to reply yes/no answer.BI

What is Drip Marketing? I'm looking for case studies or real life examples of how effective it is a strategy for user retention.
Drip marketing (aka. drip emails, or lead nurturing) is often used by modern marketers to nurture their leads through the sales funnel. As others have mentioned the idea is to gain brand awareness and influence buyers through a regular series of targeted and relevant content or offers. Typically for top of the funnel activities you might offer something like a general whitepaper or something which describes the overall business problems that your prospects might be feeling. From there you can use a marketing automation tool to send through additional material or reminders periodically depending on how your prospects engage with you. The idea at the end of the day is to reduce that amount of direct time that a sales rep spends closing any deal by ensuring that leads have shown sufficient buying signals and are ready to purchase.SH

How do I get people to subscribe to my email newsletter?
I would seriously consider launching a blog and posting content of the same type to the blog, in abundance. Then add a popup box to the blog to collect email addresses. Post daily blog posts about topics related to your blog and your newsletter. If you do this consistently, over time, you will build up traffic to your blog and also get people entering their email into your popup. This is the free way to do it...EW

How can I go about using social media outlets to attract new clients?
Hello, great question here. First of all you should understand that there is no 1 way and depending on who your audience is and what you sell the answer will definitely vary. A short answer however would be - engagement. Forget about likes and follows and shares are engagement, if you want to be a successful marketer you need to see engagement as conversations. The more conversations you can build around products the more you can rely on them to follow links or follow up on a request when you do make one. With that said, social media updates should be about what your followers want to see - depending on the social media - try to avoid being too pitchy on each post. My name is Humberto Valle, I have been a strategist for about 10 years now and have helped countless of entrepreneurs and businesses thrive through creative competitive strategy and marketing and I'm the co-founder of Unthink.Me.
