Driving High-Quality Traffic and Leads for BeHappy2Day through a Targeted Newsletter Campaign
Objective
As an affiliate partner for affiliate2day (PPL), our goal was to drive high-quality traffic and generate a steady stream of leads. We used our male email database and a targeted newsletter featuring a special offer (special price of $0.99) to capture attention and inspire clicks.
Campaign Strategy
- Target Audience: Leveraged our email database of male singles interested in online dating, carefully segmented to ensure relevance.
- Promotional Approach: Sent a targeted newsletter, designed to highlight the unique offer, maximize interest, and increase click-through rates.
- Timeframe: Monthly campaigns to sustain interest and engagement over time.
Creatives
We used emailers featuring the special offer + added some banners promoting the same discount to our website. Based on our experience, we ensured the following:
Subject Line:
The subject line was crafted to be both intriguing and action-oriented, using language that encouraged curiosity and immediacy. Variables:
"Meet Someone Special – Limited Offer Just for You!"
"Find Your Perfect Match Today – Exclusive Deal Inside!"
Each subject line was personalized where possible, featuring the recipient's name to increase open rates and engagement.
Preheader Text:
The preheader text complemented the subject line, giving a preview of the offer and adding a sense of exclusivity. For example:
"Special access to behappy2day’s top features. Don’t miss out!"
"Your chance to connect with singles just like you!"
Email Body Content:
Banner Image: A visually appealing, high-quality image of happy couples or singles enjoying a date, reinforcing the outcome readers could aspire to by joining the site.
Headline: A clear, bold headline inviting readers to take action, e.g., "Find Love Today – Special Access Awaits You!"
Copy: The email copy was brief yet compelling, explaining the benefits of signing up for the dating site in simple language. It highlighted the unique features of the site, like a matching algorithm or a free trial, tailored to singles looking for meaningful connections.
Offer Details: A section that explained the exclusive offer, such as the lowest price for the smallest price list position. This created a strong incentive for readers to click through.
Social Proof: Brief testimonials and success stories were included to build trust and show readers that others had successfully found relationships on the site.
Call to Action (CTA):
The email featured a prominent, brightly colored CTA button that read “Find Your Match Now”.
Mobile Optimization:
The email was fully optimized for mobile, ensuring easy reading and fast loading on any device. Footer with Trust Elements:
The footer included links to privacy policies and an unsubscribe option.
