  So we know that email has the potential to drive a shed load of sales/leads, with businesses following best practice methods such as personalising emails, purchase confirmation emails and newsletters.

It's likely that you're making use of email marketing staples such as newsletters, transactional emails and sales notifications. Although these are generating traffic and results, there are some types of emails that are overlooked and can still drive growth. These include the following:
 
     
 
Welcome Emails
 
  Welcome emails are a great way of introducing your subscribers to your products and/or services. Welcome emails are recommended to help build relationships, and why not boost the performance of these and throw in a freebie like a discount code or whitepaper?  
     
 
Cross Sell/Up Sell
 
  These campaigns are a good way to up sell and maximise exposure of other services or products. They can be reactive to previous user engagement, and can boost conversions by showing them relevant products or information to help them make a decision, or buy additional products.  
     
 
Lead Nurturing
 
  Lead Nurturing is one of the most effective ways to drip feed information to your prospects/new subscribers. By sending targeted and informative messages, you can maximise conversion rates and funnel your contacts to the point of sale or sign up.  
     
 
Surveys/Feedback
 
  Customer satisfaction should be key for all businesses. If your customers are satisfied, then they will become repeat customers and also recommend your product or services. Automating these emails will allow you to gain the insight needed to maximise the service they receive.  
     
 
Cart Abandonment
 
  These automated emails are a great way of saving business. Sending them an automated email to invite them back to complete their purchase is a great reminder that they can action when they have time. You can also follow this up with a relevant discount code if they still don’t purchase for further enticement.

  Drip feeding emails to your contacts who don’t regularly engage is a great way of retaining subscribers, and maintaining your list hygiene. Offering things like incentives are a good way of implementing this, and getting them back into your active database.  
     
 
Purchase Confirmations
 
  Make the most out of your automatic confirmation emails by recommending more products that are similar to their purchase? If they engage, then take them on a journey to make them ready to purchase again sooner.
