A Guide To Effective Community Bank Email Marketing

Email marketing is the use of email to directly target your desired audience with the goal of driving sales, increasing brand awareness, or communicating important information. It is one of the oldest forms of digital marketing and still produces the highest ROI compared to any other marketing channel.

 

 

Email Marketing

The Basics:

Email marketing is an excellent way for community banks to strengthen the relationship they have with existing customers, grow share of wallet, and generate new account openings and loan applications. Community banks can utilize email marketing in a variety of ways, including promoting special offers like lower interest rates or providing financial education to your customers.

However, email marketing is most effective for community banks when automated. Since financial products are not typically impulsive purchases, automating your email strategy allows you to nurture your customers so that when they’re ready to apply for a loan, they’re already well-informed as to why your community bank is the number one choice.

Community Bank Email Marketing:

Our Process

When you begin a partnership with Geear, we’ll conduct in-depth research to acquire a strong understanding of your customer profiles and your community bank's unique goals.

We'll recommend email marketing strategies that reach both your existing customers and prospects with compelling content.

We will also explore your customer lifecycle and application process to identify automated email sequences that will best serve you. These automated processes may address application abandonment, lead follow-up, or other situations to ultimately improve the efficiency of your operations and generate more revenue for your community bank.

Our team will take the time to understand your unique goals, current systems and processes, and product offerings so our services can be tailored to your community bank.

Measuring Metrics

Email marketing for community banks can be measured in several ways. For one-off promotional or educational style emails, we will measure the open rate and click-through rate to gauge performance.

These metrics allow us to identify if the information included in each email truly resonates with your target audience.

For automated processes, we will work directly with you to determine which metrics are most important. This may include applications generated, increased share of wallet, or overall time saved by your community bank’s staff.
