It may seem like very distant imagery, but we can do more than you think with a voice in an email. If you ask Siri or Bixby about your most recently received e-mails, you will get them to read to you aloud. As digital assistants will soon become more and more mainstream, the voice will play an even more important role.

A search that a consumer gives to a home device is likely to be supplemented in the…

Yes, I have also said it in recent years that content is king. But there is nothing true about it. Because the mountains and mountains of content that we produce together all demand the scarce attention of our customers. Even that customer is not king – he is a dictator. And just as people – not always voluntarily – go down on their knees for a dictator, companies are forced to respond to their customers. The online world is about giving your attention, and content is only a means to an end. Manage your site not through content (input) but on based on outcome. What is content and who crowned…

Will the results of your B2B blog continue? Good chance that you are dealing with a case of ‘transparency phobia.’ No, not perspiration phobia.  Transparency phobia. It should be clear that I have just sucked the term out of my thumb since a quick Google search on ‘transparency phobia’ does not give a single hit (edit: gave).

And above all: to give answers to questions that your (potential) customer has now or in the future. In one way or another, there is a kind of status quo within the…

You get more customers through trust, did you ever think it’s possible, in today’s world, where everyone is trying to make a quick buck and run away? If you were to ask me what is now the most significant distinguishing value of any company, then I would say trust. Or better: the extent to which customers trust you or the employees of your company. That may sound simple, but it indeed is not. Indeed, most potential customers have incurred serious trust issues in the past. To you to do something about that. But how do you deal with something like this? Trust takes time As a customer, you want to…

Email advertising is a wonderful way for you to keep in touch with your customers, learn about them and make a loyal relationship between the two of you. It may be planned to ensure your customers receive your message at a specific period and that message is delivered right into their private space: their inboxes. Few other advertising and marketing activities are these great all-rounders. With social media, it is based on chance whether your message is lost or seen into the abyss that is a homepage feed. Direct mail sent through the article is quite private, but it’s difficult to assess the results. Along with your site could be…
