Are you ready to take your digital marketing skills to the next level?

The best way to keep up with the latest marketing trends and technology is to invest in your own education. Stay ahead of the curve by attending marketing conferences and workshops and learning from thought leaders and industry professionals who share their insights, tips, and tricks to meet and exceed marketing goals.

If anyone understands the science of conversion rates, it's Justin Rondeau. Being the Director of Marketing at DigitalMarketer, Rondeau has spent his entire career working on optimization campaigns and has run hundreds of tests for both B2B and ecommerce brands and has analyzed 3,000+ tests across virtually every industry.

Through his research he has learned that when trying to optimize a campaign or landing page there are only four fundamental things that actually impact conversions: 

1. The Offer 
2. The Articulation
3. The Targeting 
4. The Design

With as many emails one gets to their inbox, it raises the question. I sat down with John Thies, Co-Founder of Email on Acid to discuss this marketing tactic and dive deeper into what it takes to put together an effective email marketing strategy.

Believe it or not, email is still one of the most effective tools for getting your message out and, if used correctly, can have an enormous impact on brand awareness and revenue.
