How do you sell a $20,000 product to a busy school principal who’s never heard of your brand? How do you win back public favor when the NY Times slams your company? How do you build community when your huge Earth Day initiative is shut down by a global pandemic? You send an email of course. These are real challenges that real SaaS brands faced – and solved – with email marketing. Listen in on SaaS email marketing experiments that worked – and didn’t – to inform and inspire your own SaaS email marketing strategies. Every other week, an email marketing expert will share an email story – and the following week, I’ll walk you through the concrete takeaways you can apply to your SaaS email marketing.Nikki Elbaz | Email marketing strategist for SaaS brands マーケティング マーケティング・セールス 経済学

    Shownotes:

    When SaaS companies raise their prices, the internet explodes – but why do some brands face massive backlash while others skate by unscathed? If you're Jess Haney, you don’t just follow the drama, you collect over a dozen pricing increase emails, analyze the social media storms that follow – and distill the patterns into a must-read report. From Canva's rollback to Kit's creator rebellion, discover what makes customers rage-quit versus grudgingly accept – and the three non-negotiables that could save your next price increase from becoming a PR disaster.

    ♻️ This is a replay episode originally aired on September 25, 2024. I’m resurfacing it because – as much as we love fresh content – replaying smart ideas deepens the insights.

    (04:48) Takeaway #2: Flex those humility muscles before asking for customer feedback

    (05:55) Takeaway #3: Use email content to take shared values further

    (08:00) Takeaway #4: Learn (and use) your customers’ lifecycle

    (08:49) Takeaway #5: Use choice to increase relevance when you don’t have the right data

    (09:17) Takeaway #6: Don’t blindly follow your competition
