Holistic Email Marketing, The Book

“Kath’s insights go well beyond best practices and email strategy. She provides email marketers with a new way to think about email marketing, along with a clear path to help them get into the minds of their recipients and provide a truly great email experience. Maybe you’ve been working in email for years, like me. Maybe you’ve nailed the technical bits and are even seeing great returns from your email program. This book is still a must-read for anyone in the email marketing industry. Thought provoking, inspirational and a great example of how to do “helpful marketing” the right way. Highly recommended!”

“I’ve followed Kath’s work for years and have read many of her excellent and thought-provoking articles. This is a fantastic update to what she has consistently taught, an excellent primer if you’re just starting out in email marketing, and a way to deepen your knowledge if you’re more advanced.
Her message of treating people like real human beings rather than email addresses on a list, and of earning customer’s trust over the long-term resonates throughout the book. It also has perspectives that made me think anew – for instance, how customer-centric and data-centric strategies impact performance, and how ‘helpful marketing’ can help cultivate loyalty in a saturated marketing environment where trust is at an all-time low. Highly recommended.”

“If you have never attended a session by Kath or tuned into one of her online videos I suggest you stop reading this review and go do it now! Her ability to breakdown and unlock a problem that you may have been wrestling with for months around your CRM strategy is truly amazing.

All I can say is buy it, and I promise you won’t regret it!”

“I’ve seen Kath speak at various conferences and knew already she was an expert in the email field, but this book takes it to the next level – it’s an email marketing bible! Full of useful, practical tips as well as broader level strategy which will definitely help me improve my company’s e-mail efforts.”

“A great book for those who work in email marketing or who want to know more about it. I have seen Kath speak at numerous industry events, and this book is packed full of the sensible, practical advice that Kath is renowned for in the email marketing world.”

“I’ve discovered Holistic email marketing from Twitter. I didn’t know the book or even Kath.
It was an incredible surprise to discover the ‘holistic’ point of view described in the book. For me, it is not just an email marketing book, but a marketing book that connects with email marketing. It solves a huge problem I constantly see with many email marketing operators: how to connect the dots!”

“I have followed Kath for such a long time and every time I hear her speak on stage, webinar or write an article, I learn a bit more about this crazy email marketing world. Now, what I love about the book is her great ideas are on my desk. This is a must read book for marketers as we traverse not only the craziness of the 2020 season, but also beyond. You need good ideas. You need to break from the monotony of your production schedule and get to where you’re not only having fun, but creating amazing data-centric programs. Establishing good foundations and pure innovation is what comes out of Kath’s writings. There’s a reasons why she’s one of the leading authorities in email marketing and after you read this, you will see why.”

“I’ve been in the email marketing game for over a decade, and this is a rare email marketing book that can speak to vets like me. I made the nightly mistake of reading this book before bed, and found myself filled with so many ideas that I couldn’t sleep. I read through the first half of the book and immediately ordered copies for the rest of my team. It’s that good.
Most email marketing books dabble in strategy, but mostly talk about tactics. They rarely speak to metrics beyond opens and clicks. This book covers it all (“Holistic Email Marketing” is an appropriate title). I wish this book had existed when I got started in email marketing because it’s an excellent primer for new email marketers who need to think beyond just getting campaigns out the door.”
