Email marketing
Email marketing, with segmentation and personalization, is one of the most effective digital marketing strategies for reaching and retaining customers.
Data as a driving force in email marketing
Through the collection and analysis of customer data companies can send personalized emails that meet the individual needs and interests of recipients. Here are a few key points:

A/B testing email marketing

example: Compare two different subject lines to see which one achieves higher open rates.
Email marketing automation
