Email Automations for Small Business Marketers

Mastering Local Marketing: How to Increase Your Small Business's Awareness & New Customers Through Digital Marketing, In-store Sales Strategies, and Building a Network of Influence.

Running a small business means there's never enough time, but what if an unpaid "intern" could handle your follow-ups, reminders, and promotions automatically? In this episode of Mastering Local Marketing, we explore how email automation can be a game-changer for local marketing and small business marketing efforts. You'll learn practical ways to use email automation tools like Mailchimp or Constant Contact to save time, improve communication, and increase sales. Hear inspiring real-world examples, including how a local beauty salon is planning to leverage QR codes to trigger creative email campaigns. We'll cover how to build welcome emails, re-engagement campaigns, appointment reminders, and post-purchase thank-yous — all designed to run seamlessly while you focus on growing your business. If you've ever said "I don't have time for marketing," this episode will show you how email automation fits perfectly within your local marketing toolkit to help your small business work smarter, not harder.
