Shopify Email enables you to build an email list

Shopify has many amazing built-in tools. Shopify email is one of them. Email is super important in today’s marketing landscape as cost-per-click advertising (Facebook Ads, Google Ads) are unreliable and expensive. Being able to directly outreach to an email list of customers is always going to be and advantage - especially when done correctly by using email to build trust, promote yourself as an industry leader and of course, make your customers aware of sales and discounts. 

Shopify email allows you to create professional emails within your store’s admin area. You can brand emails to match your store’s design, use email templates (using no code) and use automations and custom workflows. What’s more, you can segment your email list and see real time analytics - features which you would need to pay extra for using with other top leading custom email providers. 

It is said ‘the people most likely to buy from you in the world are the ones who already have’. This couldn’t be truer. Make sure that email marketing is a part of your digital marketing strategy.
