Email marketing is one of the most well-established marketing technologies, and for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), it remains one of the most popular. In a recent survey, 44 percent of SMBs use email marketing, making it the second most popular tactic behind social media.
A separate report found that email marketing provides the best return on investment, measured in customer acquisition and retention, for SMBs of any marketing activity.
