		<title>Email Segmentation in Marketing Emails</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The idea of sending a targeted, relevant email to your subscribed clients on a regular basis is one of the longest standing marketing strategies around. Finding the perfect email design, though, can be difficult. There are many email templates out there, some of which are HTML email templates and some of which are plain text templates. However, no matter which type of template you use, there are some basic structural concepts that the best email templates use. One of these concepts involves segmentation.
What is Email Segmentation?

Email segmentation involves sending marketing emails to specific groups of your clients. For example, you can segment your client list by region, age, interest, and more. You could create specific email marketing templates for those customers who live in your city denoting store specials, then use a different email template design for those customers who only order online. By separating the two groups, you can use email newsletter templates that feature more relevant information. Online customers won’t have to read over any in-store specials you list, while your local customers will receive emails more pertinent to them.]]></description>

		<title>How To Make Your Email Stand Out</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Not all email templates are designed the same.  In fact, email marketing templates are often split into two different camps: non-HTML emails and HTML email templates.  When it comes to making your HTML emails look good, there are a number of best practices to follow.  HTML email design has come a long way since it was first introduced, but there are some email design principles that not everyone has embraced.

The best email templates are the ones that are clear to read, easy to follow, and are laid out well.  These best email newsletter templates include a number of features.  For example, most start off with a small line about why the person has received the email.  These messages usually mention how the person subscribed to the list, and they often give subscribers the chance to unsubscribe.  While you don’t want that to happen, it is a good item to have on your email newsletter templates.  If you don’t have an unsubscribe link, some people may start to think you’re spamming them.]]></description>
