When you think about marketing as less of a hidden sales pitch and more of building trust and nurturing relationships, it's easier (and more genuine) when you're writing a message to your audience. So maybe that should be a good resolution this year?


With email clichés like these, you win some and you lose some. Okay, you probably / definitely lose 'em:

• New year. New you.
• Final days. Final days extended.
• As easy as 123 / ABC...
• Best kept secret.
• You don't want to miss this.
• An exclusive just for you.
• New age / Next level / Next generation.
• Flying off the shelf.

...You get the point.

The "We're in this together" email is meant to evoke a feeling of camaraderie with your customers. For many, the fast-fix was a letter from leadership discussing how their company specifically would manage the challenges of the pandemic.
