Learn how you can generate more income from your existing customers using email marketing with AWeber.

Jonas Troyer, the owner of Troyer Websites, offers website design services, in addition to some complimentary services, like search engine optimization (SEO), social media advertising, graphic design, and more.

He knows that it’s often easier and more cost-effective to look to your existing customers to increase your revenue, rather than trying to find new customers.

Why?

Because your existing customers already know, like, and trust you. They already know what you can do for them.

In fact, the success rate of selling to a customer you already have is 60-70 percent, while the success rate of selling to a new customer is 5-20 percent.

Over $30,000 in sales in a single day

Jonas wanted to bring in more business for his SEO services, so he came up with a 15% off one-day promotion to cross-sell an annual package of SEO services to his existing website customers.

The key to Jonas’s success was in his email marketing strategy. He created an automated email campaign for his list of 500 subscribers spread out over one day to drive awareness for his promotion. The result was over $30,000 in sales.

Here’s what each email looked like:

Email 1: Create urgency through scarcity

Scarcity drives a fear of missing out, or FOMO, and generates demand. Troyer’s emails highlighted that the 15% discount was only available for a limited time and that he only had limited spots available.

Email 2: Use benefit-focused language

Your potential customers don’t just want to know what services you offer. They want to know how those services are going to benefit them.

Use language that focuses on the benefits to the customer. What company doesn’t want to “show up on the first page of Google?”

Email 3: Use social proof

One of the most effective ways to grow your business is word of mouth. Leveraging customer testimonials and success stories can help other potential customers feel more confident in doing business with you.

Troyer used social proof in his emails, sharing a video where he walks through two of his SEO clients’ websites and the results they’ve seen in working with Troyer and his team. This helps position his promotion in a way that potential clients can see how they will benefit from his SEO services.

Email 4: Last Chance

His final “last chance” email dialed up the FOMO by saying his company would “probably never do this again.”
