Tip: How to create email campaigns

Which email do you look forward to receiving most: An email from your best friend or an email from a massive corporation? And which of those two emails do you prefer to read?
So, when you’re emailing your list, what do you do? Do you write as if you’re addressing a huge, faceless crowd of people? Do you write just like a massive corporate marketing department would?
If you want your subscribers to look forward to your emails, you should consider behaving more like a friend.
Follow these 8 essential rules for friendly, eagerly anticipated emails …

1. Stop talking about your list: Stop talking about subscribers. Write as if you’re emailing one person only. It instantly makes your emails more personal.
2. Quit wasting people’s time: Only email when you have something truly valuable or helpful to say.
3. Be useful: Don’t just email when you need something from your readers. Be helpful. Be generous. Be friendly. Be like real friend.
4. Use your actual name as you’re from address: Put your name and reputation on the line. That’s more personal isn’t it?
5. Be trustworthy: Let people know what to expect. Yes, sales messages should be part of your email marketing, that’s fine. Just be clear about it when they sign up.
6. Don’t be creepy: Feel free to personalize emails, but don’t repeat people’s name too often, because it makes you sound like a call center script.
7. Be on their side: Remind people that they are not alone. Tell them you understand their struggles. Empathize with them, and ask how you can help.
8. Give people a reward for reading: Make sure people benefit from reading your emails. How? Share a useful tip. Make them feel better. Inspire them.

Build Your DMARC Record in 15 Minutes

Implementing DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication Reporting and Conformance) is the best way to defend your customers, your brand, and your employees from phishing and spoofing attacks.

DMARC is built upon two other authentication protocols: SPF (Sender Policy Framework) and DKIM (Domain Keys Identified Mail). You should have SPF and DKIM on your Envelope From and Friendly from domains before proceeding with DMARC. (For a refresher on how DMARC works, check out this blog post.)

While the implementation process can get tricky, building your DMARC record doesn’t have to be. Follow the steps below to build your DMARC record in 15 minutes—or less!

Step 1: Verify domain alignment (aka identifier alignment)
Begin by opening the email headers from the emails you send. Identify the domain or subdomain listed in the following places:
• The Envelope From (e.g.., Return Path or Mail-From)
• The “Friendly” From (i.e., “Header” From)
• The d=domain in the DKIM-Signature
Are your domain names identical? If so, then your domains are aligned and you will be able to instruct mailbox providers to reject any malicious emails purporting to be from your brand. If not, you can still proceed to create your DMARC record and work with your messaging, IT, and/or security teams to get aligned.

Step 2: Identify email accounts to receive DMARC reports
Through DMARC, you will receive aggregate and forensic (message level) reports daily. Designate the email account(s) where you want to receive these reports. You may want to use two separate accounts, as you could get inundated with the data.
DMARC reports are very difficult to parse because they are provided in raw format. Partnering with a company like Return Path can help you and your team make sense of them—fast.

Step 3: Learn the DMARC tags|
DMARC tags are the language of the DMARC standard. They tell the email receiver (1) to check for DMARC and (2) what to do with messages that fail DMARC authentication.
There are many DMARC tags available, but you do not have to use them all. In fact, we recommend keeping it simple. Focus on the v=, p=, fo=, rua, and ruf tags. Our recent blog post, Demystifying breaks down what tags to use and why.

Step 4: Generate your DMARC record with Return Path’s DMARC Creation Wizard
using our DMARC Creation Wizard, generate a DMARC text record in your DNS for each sending domain. Set the mail receiver policy to “none,” indicating DMARC’s “monitor” mode.

With DMARC in monitor mode, you can gather the information on your entire email ecosystem, including who is sending email on behalf of your brand, what emails are getting delivered, and what emails are not.
Request to receive the daily aggregate and forensic reports by specifying your email address in the rua tag and the ruf tag, respectively. Use the email address (es) you identified in step three above.
Your record should look something like this:
v=DMARC1; p=none; fo=1; rua=mailto:[email protected];ruf=mailto:[email protected]
Congratulations! You have created your DMARC record. The next step is implementation.

Step 5. Implement your DMARC record into DNS
Work with your DNS server administrator to add your DMARC record to DNS and start monitoring your chosen domain.
That might be your primary domain or a carefully selected test domain. You will start receiving reports and see where email traffic using that domain is coming from. Perhaps you will identify some vendors or partners you didn’t realize were sending on your behalf. Perhaps you will be surprised to find that there is—or isn’t—a significant volume of fraudulent messages using that domain and where those messages are coming from.
