Pitching a new service to your clients is never easy, regardless of how compelling you perceive the case to be. When the service is email marketing, there's an additional twist—often your introductory conversation will not so much consist of explaining what it is ('a compelling way to get in touch with your customers'), but deconstructing what it isn't ('spam'). So, how do you bring your clients around to seeing the value in email marketing? What can you charge for? Perhaps most importantly, what's in it for the designer? In this article, we'll go through some of the core selling points you can pitch to your clients and the range of services that you can offer.
