The current generation emerging from college is Generation Z, a cohort with an entirely different set of goals and values. And for associations, this means a whole new set of challenges. Already, 56 percent of associations say that they’re struggling to engage young professionals.

So how can associations attract younger Millennials, Gen Z, and beyond?

Retargeting and Cart Capture: How to Convert with a Friendly Reminder

Posted on March 1, 2021     Leave a Comment

It’s been a year of uncertainty and instability, and associations are starting to feel the impact. It’s hard to find leads, it’s hard to convert, and it’s hard to hit growth goals. This means that there’s more pressure than ever on the marketing team. You have to use all your ingenuity to find new ways to engage, recruit, and retain members.

Wouldn’t it be great if there were an easy way to drive growth? What if you could increase revenues by over 10% just by sending some automated emails, or dropping a cookie in the right place?

Well, believe it or not, you can. Marketers sometimes neglect the bottom of the funnel, but this is where you’ll find opportunities that are:

  • Quick wins
  • Low lift
  • High impact
  • Easy to automate

Exploring HighRoad’s Template Pak

Posted on March 1, 2021     Leave a Comment

Here’s perhaps the understatement of the century—sometimes email templates can be fussy. Who’s with me on this?

I think it’s fair to say that, regardless of the platform, as marketers we’ve all peeled back the HTML veil to try and retrofit and/or augment our templates.  We know what we want for our organization and our brand. We also know that sometimes technology just doesn’t bend that way.

Understanding that time spent on marketing strategy versus template rewiring is always a better bet, we’ve created what we call the “Template Pak” for one of the leading email automation platforms we offer, Adestra.

If you’re a HighRoad client on Adestra, you now have a tool that can help you  design modern looking emails with minimal time and energy. The template, which should already be sitting in your instance, takes a modular approach to help you build modern, effective, deliverable emails right within your workspace.
