What email marketing involves

Email marketing is the use of your own contact list to stay useful and present between purchases — nurturing enquiries that were not ready, reactivating past customers and prompting repeat work, in line with UK data protection rules.

Email Marketing in Sidmouth — FAQs

Can I email my existing customers without consent?

In the UK there is a limited 'soft opt-in' for existing customers about similar products or services, provided they were given the chance to opt out. Take your own compliance advice before relying on it.

How often should I email my list?

Often enough to be remembered, rarely enough to stay welcome — for most local businesses, monthly is a sensible starting point.

How do I market to an older customer base online?

Prioritise clarity, legibility, obvious phone contact and credible proof, and avoid interfaces that require multiple steps before someone can simply get in touch.

How much does email marketing cost in Sidmouth?

Prices are the same wherever you are in Devon. Monthly care packages start at £99 a month, websites start at £595, and email marketing is quoted against the scope you actually need. Quoted per campaign programme. Most trades add this after the Google and website essentials are working.
