HOW TO: Take Advantage of Social Media in Your E-mail Marketing

A recent study by Marketing Sherpa concluded that simply including sharing buttons to an e-mail marketing campaign led to a “25% boost in reader interaction, and a surge in inbound traffic from social networking sites.” Moreover, huge gains were reported in traffic via social sites: 2,070% from LinkedIn, 1,680% from Twitter, and 1,351% from Facebook.

How to Do It

Share buttons have become common on Web content, but they’re also easy to integrate into e-mails.
