BoomTown Revolutionizes Drip Marketing
Drip Marketing Automation is one of the most popular features in many online marketing
platforms. Companies recognize the benefit of using marketing automation because
it helps companies work smarter and more efficiently. BoomTown is about to revolutionize
Drip Marketing Automation as we know it. How? By making it smarter!
Traditional Drip Marketing
Traditional drip is great. Its a powerful tool when used correctly. It saves time
and increases efficiency. BoomTown saw the value in drip marketing, but noticed
some limitations.
Drip as we know it now provides the ability to create, schedule and track email
marketing campaigns initiated from an event trigger, like filling out a form for
example. Some online marketing platforms have even expanded on traditional drip
by incorporating logic into the event triggers. For example, how a user answers
form questions affects which drip campaign they will enter into.
There are however, some limitations to traditional drip marketing. For example,
have you ever had that awkward moment when you actually talk to a prospect that
you have been nurturing with your drip campaign, and they continue to receive your
drip emails as if you have never spoken? That can quickly take out any momentum
built-up and devalue your drip efforts.
The content in your drip emails are often vague with limited personalization. Its
easy to tell that it is an automated email and not one that was personally written.
Why is BoomTown’s Smart-Drip different?
BoomTown’s Smart-Drip enhances what works with traditional drip and fixes what doesn’t.
The revolutionary features in BoomTown’s Smart-Drip will undoubtedly make your drip
campaigns smarter and much more effective. How? By making your emails more personable,
optimizing email open rates, eliminating awkward moments, grading effectiveness
and providing a community-driven cheat sheet that leads to more polished drip campaigns.
Personalization
What if you had the capability to make your email templates appear as if they were
specifically written for each individual, and not appear like a canned template
everyone gets? BoomTown has added additional functionality to do just that.
Now, instead of only piping-in “Dear {name},” BoomTown’s Smart-Drip system recognizes
the time of day and week when your emails are sent. This adds the “personal touch”
your messages need to stand out from the crowd. “Good morning Jim, hope you’re having
a great Wednesday morning!” Cool right?
Email optimization
Now get ready for mind = blown. As savvy marketers, we’re always testing and researching
the best times to send out marketing emails. This takes time and is built on lots
of data. Wouldn’t it be nice if your drip platform automatically told you when the
best time was to send an email? Smart-Drip does just that!
For example, BoomTown is a Real Estate Web Marketing Platform that provides real
estate websites, CMS, lead management and marketing tools. Visitors to BoomTown’s
real estate websites are doing one thing, searching for homes. The BoomTown Smart-Drip
detects what time a visitor normally frequents the site to search for homes. Smart-Drip
schedules drip emails to deploy minutes before a visitor historically visits the
site to search for homes. Talk about timing!
Event triggers
Remember the awkward moment mentioned earlier? BoomTown Smart-Drip ensures this
will never happen again. BoomTown users can record every prospect communication.
This means, if an agent has the opportunity to speak with a lead they have been
nurturing, they can record that in the system which will temporarily disable drip.
Awkward moment averted!
Plan Score
Time for the revolutionary part. BoomTown’s Smart-Drip uses a proprietary algorithm
that measures your drip campaign performance, and scores it. BoomTown’s “Plan Score”
enables users to identify opportunities to edit their campaigns to increase their
score, which in turn increases drip campaign performance and overall effectiveness.
Sharing Library
BoomTown places a lot of value on community and knowledge sharing. It’s amazing
what you can learn from your colleagues. BoomTown has created a one-of-a-kind Sharing
Library to encourage this.
What does this mean exactly? BoomTown users can upload their drip campaign and email
templates to the BoomTown Sharing Library. Other owners can browse the library and
view templates with a higher Plan Score than their own and copy elements of the
template to use for their campaigns. In time, BoomTown clients can work together
to build the perfect drip campaigns.
BoomTown has compiled years of research to develop Smart-Drip. This new form of
drip marketing automation will no doubt change the industry’s entire approach to
drip, making emails more personable, well received and easily improved based on
campaign performance.
