Define Your Audience

Create a Touch Sequence

Honing Your Message

Executing & Optimizing

One of the first steps of every Oak Street email campaign project is to intentionally design the target audience that you are trying to reach. A clear understanding of the characteristics of this group is paramount before designing the logistics that are a part of the campaign. Everything from the call to action in the messaging to the way the message is written needs to speak specifically to this group. Oak Street will help you refine the definition of your targets by taking into account the information that you have today while strategically supplementing as needed. It is also important to consider what the relationship your target audience has with your organization today. Many organizations are able to run more granular email campaigns for customers that have an existing relationship by factoring in the information that you already have about them.

Once the target audience has been defined, the next step in an Oak Street email project is to map out the touch sequence that makes sense for the object of the campaign to be achieved. Few customers are going to convert off of a single point of touch, so it is important to map out the experience that you want for your target audience. Aligning these points of touch with the collateral that will be deployed as a part of the email campaign is an important part of making sure that your final results align with your goals. Oak Street helps supplement this process with the sharing of best practices and tips/tricks to make sure that your target audience is being reached appropriately without being overwhelmed by too much contact.  

Once the touch sequence has been defined, the Oak Street team will help hone your messaging for each stage so that the target audience finds value in the interaction and takes the desired action that you are looking to drive. Each message will be efficiently streamlined to articulate your target objective and supplemented with a strong call to action that prompts that to convert as desired. The call to action is one of the most important parts of this process as this is the instruction that is telling the target audience what you are looking for them to do. Oak Street helps make sure that not only is this messaged well, but the appropriate operational workflows are in place to convert those opportunities and not let them slip through the cracks. All email communications should have a strategic purpose and we want to make sure that not only are you driving as many opportunities as possible, but that they are not leaking prior to converting.

Now that the campaign logistics have been mapped out, the final step of the process is to execute the campaign and optimize based on the results that are being observed. The characteristics of the target audience and the objective of the campaign will drive a lot of the initial strategy, but it's important to also optimize based on the results that are occurring during the initial points of touch. Oak Street utilizes a data heavy approach to measure success and identify where further areas of improvement may exist. Every organization is going to have a slightly different need in this arena so we are sure to account for your organization’s unique characteristics to avoid the trap of falling into too much of a cookie cutter approach. We make it easy to not only get these campaigns running and off the ground, but also to continue driving improvement to maximize the potential conversion rates.
