What Is Email Personalization?

Updated: Jun 8, 2022

Email personalization is when marketers use the information provided to them by their clients and craft messages tailor-made for particular individuals.


They may not say it, but your clients hate being spoken to in a mass. Being personal in your email messages gives the message a tone of friendliness. To make your message appear unique, you have to consider using words like; you, us or me. That kind of tone makes the message appear like it's coming from an individual and targeting the receiver.


Email messages that appear personal seem to invite customers to take action. This makes them think that you are interested in their likes and preferences, making them feel special. Don't make your email messages look corporate, write your messages like you are talking to your customers in person. This will become easy for you to connect with them.


Tips to help you write and ensure personal email messages for your customers;
  • Use plain language while talking to leads.

  • Use words that make the text appear personal, like me, you or us

  • Make an emotional connection with masses of email contacts.
