As industries go, retail is pretty cutthroat. Yes, there’s lots of potential customers, but there’s also a tonne of competition, often with very little differentiation, all of which leads to very tight margins. So, for marketing to work in retail it’s got to be effective and efficient, and with some research suggesting that email marketing delivers an ROI of 36 to 1, what better place to start?
