Likewise the recent <a href=\"http:\/\/www.redeye.com\/events\/whitepapersandreports\/behavioural-email-benchmark-study-2\/\">Redeye report on Email Remarketing<\/a> -- shows that for different sectors email and engagement and conversion rates are far higher than <a href=\"http:\/\/www.smartinsights.com\/email-marketing-ecrm-alerts\/statistics-sources-for-email-marketing\/\">average email response<\/a>.

This 2011 <a href=\"http:\/\/econsultancy.com\/uk\/reports\/email-census\">research<\/a> from Econsultancy shows that even in 2011, after this technique has been available for 10+ years, it's still surprisingly uncommon with only just over a third of companies using it:<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\"><!--more--><\/div>\n<div><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-5241\" href=\"http:\/\/v2.smartinsights.com\/email-marketing\/email-creative-copywriting\/tools-to-embed-video-in-email\/attachment\/3523-revision-2\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5241\" title=\"Email remarketing percent\" src=\"http:\/\/www.smartinsights.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/Email-remarketing-percent.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"645\" height=\"492\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div>Perhaps that explains why the new term on the block for selling this technique is \"Email Re-marketing\" - building on the success of Remarketing on Ad networks.<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>You might think that these technique would be more popular for retailers where the appeal of the abandoned shopping cart email is higher.<\/div>\n<div>The study from RedEye also shows that many retailers are not implementing these types of email:<\/div>\n<div><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-5239\" href=\"http:\/\/v2.smartinsights.com\/keyword-position-monitoring-software-review\/traffic-building-strategy\/offline-media-integration\/attachment\/4529-autosave\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5239\" title=\"Abandoned cart email\" src=\"http:\/\/www.smartinsights.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/05\/Abandoned-cart-email.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"514\" height=\"425\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>However, the trend for this technique in the Econsultancy report is more positive though. It shows the change in use of ESP services since 2007. Automated campaigns (+30%), personalisation (+26%) and measurement and analytics (+22%) are the three ESP services that have shown the biggest increase over the last four years.<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>What do you think the barriers to adoption of remarketing with email are - is it budget, lack of advice, skills, systems, etc? I'm interested to find out!
