Introduction: The Flawed Mentality of Mass Email Marketing

Many marketers still view email as a cheap, efficient way to blast out messages to as many people as possible. The thinking goes: the more people you hit, the better your chances of converting a few. But this approach is fundamentally flawed. Not only does it result in generic messaging that fails to resonate with recipients, but it also leads to emails being classified as spam, meaning they’re never even seen.

In today's world, email marketing must be targeted to the individual, even when sending emails at scale. Sending the right message to the right person is key to creating value and engagement. This is where email targeting comes into play, and it's something TruAgents can help you master.

What is Email Targeting?

Email targeting is the practice of sending tailored messages to specific segments of your audience based on various types of data. The goal is to make the email feel personal and relevant to the recipient, increasing the likelihood of engagement. But what kind of data should you be using to create these targeted emails? Let’s break it down.

Types of Email Targeting and the Data You Need

Successful email targeting campaigns make use of multiple data points to craft the perfect message for each individual. Here are the main types of targeting and the data required:

1. Demographic Targeting

This strategy uses demographic information—such as age, gender, location, and income level—to tailor email content. Knowing who your audience is can help you determine the tone of voice, content type, and product interests that will resonate with them.

2. Contextual Targeting

Contextual targeting serves email content based on the recipient’s on-site browsing history. This can be broken down into several tactics:

3. Behavioral Targeting

This type of targeting uses consumer activities to define the content of your emails. Data such as purchase history, customer service notes, and even voice recordings of customer interactions can provide a wealth of information. Behavioral targeting helps you understand not just what your customers are doing, but why they’re doing it.

Successful email targeting will make use of all of these sources of data to build the most complete picture of their prospects/customers possible.
