3 Tips From On Deck To Increase Conversion Rate Through Newsletter Advertising
- Experiment with several newsletters: Try to experiment with several newsletters to reach your target audience. An interesting insight here is that large audiences don’t always equal more traction. A smaller, targeted newsletter often performs orders of magnitude better than a general one with a huge audience.
- Building relationships with writers: On Deck chose to sponsor Stacked Marketer and Quastor multiple times because of the strong fit their audience has with On Deck’s target audience. They’ve both consistently driven high-quality applicants to On Deck which is a great fit for what they’re looking for.
- Utilizing Swapstack’s Managed Campaigns: Swapstack really saves On Deck tons of time through managed campaigns. At this point, On Deck can sponsor several newsletters without having to individually hunt them down and build relationships with each one.
If you have a product or service that needs marketing, try newsletter advertising through Swapstack and experience these amazing conversion rates for yourself.
Head over to Swapstack today, choose a newsletter that best aligns with your brand’s vision, and start creating the magic for yourself!
P.S: We also recently launched Swapstack Campaigns where you can sponsor bundles of newsletters in one go, without any back and forth! Ready to scale your newsletter sponsorships program? Set up a time with the Swapstack team.
