3. Email gives you solid conversion rates. Email conversion rates are three times higher than social media according to McKinsey & Company.

That is a lot of opportunities to put your message in front of decision makers.
4. Email marketing gives you control over where visitors land on your site. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is great and something your business should definitely be doing. When your prospects get your email, you can take them directly to the page they need to learn more or get your offer. This creates a smoother experience for your prospects and customers instead of just hoping they land on the right page.
