What We Investigate in Our Email Marketing Audit Process

 

We take a deep dive into every aspect of your email marketing platform, looking at the core elements that drive successful campaigns. Here’s how we break it down:

 

1. Evaluation of Business Needs for Email Marketing

The first step in our audit is to evaluate your specific business needs when it comes to email marketing. Every business has different goals, whether it’s lead generation, customer retention, or product promotion. Understanding your objectives is key to ensuring your email campaigns align with your broader marketing strategy.

​

We’ll assess:

• Your business goals: Are you using email marketing to nurture leads, promote products, or build brand awareness?

• Target audience: Are you reaching the right people with the right message?

• Current performance: How well are your email campaigns performing? We’ll review your open rates, click-through rates, conversions, and more to spot areas for improvement.

 

2. Marketing Ecosystem Analysis

Your email marketing platform doesn’t exist in a vacuum. It’s part of a larger marketing ecosystem that includes your CRM, social media, website, and other tools. We analyze how well your email system integrates with these other technologies to ensure your efforts are aligned and working together seamlessly.

​

We’ll look at:

• How well your email platform works with other tools (CRM, automation platforms, etc.)

• The flow of data between systems and whether you’re getting the most out of your integrations

• How easy it is to track and manage customer journeys across different platforms

 

3. System Setup

Next, we’ll review the setup of your email marketing system to ensure everything is configured correctly. This includes checking the setup of your lists, templates, workflows, and automation rules to make sure there are no hiccups that could hinder performance.

 

We’ll ensure that:

• Your lists are well-organized and segmented

• Your automation is set up to run smoothly

• Your email templates are responsive and optimized for various devices

 

4. Tracking Configuration

Tracking is essential for understanding how well your emails are performing. We’ll check the tracking configuration to ensure that you’re accurately capturing key metrics like open rates, click-through rates, and conversions.

 

This includes:

• Verifying UTM parameters and tracking codes

• Ensuring accurate reporting integration with analytics tools like Google Analytics

• Assessing conversion tracking setup to measure ROI effectively

 

5. Evaluation of Current Programs

We’ll assess your current email marketing programs to determine whether they are effectively supporting your goals. This includes reviewing the performance of your existing email campaigns, workflows, and automation to see where improvements can be made.

​

• Are your campaigns reaching the right audience at the right time?

• Are you using A/B testing to optimize subject lines, content, and CTAs?

• How well are your re-engagement and lead nurturing efforts performing?

 

6. Database Health

Your email marketing database is one of your most valuable assets, but it’s only effective if it’s healthy and well-maintained. We’ll conduct a thorough review of your database health to ensure your contacts are up-to-date, well-segmented, and engaged.

​

We’ll evaluate:

• The cleanliness of your database (e.g., duplicates, inactive subscribers, bounces)

• Segmentation strategies and whether you’re targeting the right audience

• Opt-in and opt-out processes to ensure compliance and user experience

 

7. Integration Setup

Integration is key to making sure your email marketing system works seamlessly with your existing tech stack. We’ll assess your integration setup to ensure your email platform is talking to your other systems, such as CRM and sales tools, to create a unified customer experience.

 

We’ll verify:

• CRM integration for better segmentation and lead management

• Integration with e-commerce platforms for product recommendations and cart abandonment emails

• Marketing automation integration to trigger emails based on customer actions

 

8. Utilization of Platform Features

Many email platforms offer a wide range of features, but not all businesses use them to their full potential. We’ll evaluate how well you’re leveraging the features available in your current platform subscription. This can include advanced segmentation, personalization, A/B testing, automation, and more.

 

Our goal is to ensure you’re making the most of your platform's capabilities, so you can drive better results without needing to invest in new tools.

 

9. Lead Acquisition Points

Your email list doesn’t just grow on its own. We’ll evaluate your lead acquisition points to see how effectively you’re capturing new subscribers. From sign-up forms to landing pages, we’ll assess whether your lead generation efforts are optimized to grow your database with qualified leads.

 

We’ll look at:

• How easy it is for users to opt-in to your emails

• Whether you’re using incentives (like lead magnets) to encourage sign-ups

• The effectiveness of your landing pages and opt-in forms

 

10. Workflow Alignment with the Existing Defined Funnel

Your email workflows should align with your overall sales funnel to ensure that each email is sent at the right time and to the right person. We’ll review your workflow alignment to ensure that your emails are part of a well-defined, cohesive customer journey.

​

We’ll check:

• How well your email workflows align with your sales and marketing funnel stages

• Whether emails are being sent at the right time based on user behavior

• If your nurturing sequences are driving engagement and conversions
