How does it fit into your email marketing strategy? These are just a few of the many important questions to think about.
Only once you’re clear on the type of email you’re sending all phone number in cambodia and whether it’s a transactional (also known as operational in Pardot terminology) or marketing communication; who your audience is and your segmentation approach; the objective of your email and so on, can you then work on your email builds and the technical side of email marketing.
