Paano Gumawa ng Email Marketing gamit ang AI

Binabago ng AI ang email marketing. Ipinaliwanag ng gabay na ito kung paano gamitin ang mga AI tool para sumulat ng nilalaman, i-personalize ang mga mensahe, at i-optimize ang oras ng pagpapadala nang awtomatiko. Matutunan nang hakbang-hakbang kung paano pinapataas ng AI ang open rates, nakakatipid ng oras, at nagpapabuti ng conversions — kasama ang mga praktikal na halimbawa at pinakamahusay na libreng at bayad na AI email platform para sa mga marketer.

Nanatiling makapangyarihang paraan ang email marketing para maabot ang mga customer, at mas pinapahusay pa ito ng AI. Ang mga AI-powered na kasangkapan ngayon ay maaaring mag-automate ng mga gawain tulad ng pagsulat ng mga subject line, pag-draft ng email copy, at pag-optimize ng oras ng pagpapadala. Sa katunayan, natuklasan sa mga survey na mga 63% ng mga marketer ay gumagamit na ng generative AI para sa mga email campaign.

Sa pamamagitan ng paggamit ng AI para i-personalize ang mga mensahe at suriin ang data, maaari mong pataasin ang open rates, click-through rates, at sa huli ay ang benta. Sa gabay na ito, ipinaliwanag namin kung paano gumawa ng email marketing gamit ang AI nang hakbang-hakbang, mula sa pagbuo ng nilalaman hanggang sa pagtutok at pagsubok ng mga kampanya.

Ano ang AI sa Email Marketing?

Ang AI sa email marketing ay nangangahulugang paggamit ng machine learning at automation para mapabuti ang iyong mga kampanya. Sa praktika, kabilang dito ang dalawang pangunahing pamamaraan:

Predictive AI

Sinusuri ang mga pattern ng pag-uugali ng customer upang hulaan ang mga kagustuhan at pinakamainam na oras ng pakikipag-ugnayan.

Generative AI

Lumilikha ng personalized na nilalaman tulad ng mga subject line at email copy na iniangkop sa bawat tatanggap.

Ang mga AI-powered na sistema ng email ay maaaring awtomatikong:

  • I-personalize ang nilalaman ng email at mga subject line para sa bawat tatanggap
  • I-optimize ang oras ng pagpapadala sa oras na pinakamalamang buksan ng bawat user
  • I-segment ang mga audience batay sa mga kumplikadong pattern ng data
  • Magsulat ng bagong nilalaman na iniangkop sa pangangailangan ng bawat user

Ang pangunahing layunin ay mas mataas na engagement – ang mga email na pinapagana ng AI ay mas nararamdaman na angkop sa tatanggap, na nagreresulta sa mas magagandang open at click rates.

Bakit Gamitin ang AI para sa Email Marketing?

Ang pagsasama ng AI sa email marketing ay nagdudulot ng malalaking benepisyo. Iniulat ng mga marketer ang mas mataas na engagement at kita kapag gumagamit ng AI-driven na mga kampanya. Isang ulat ang nakakita ng AI-assisted na mga email campaign na maaaring maghatid ng hanggang 41% na pagtaas sa kita.

Mas Magandang Personalization

Sinusuri ng AI ang data ng subscriber upang maghatid ng mas angkop na nilalaman kabilang ang mga pangalan, rekomendasyon ng produkto, at mga dynamic na alok para sa bawat isa.

Mas Mataas na Engagement

Napapansin ang mga personalized at napapanahong email. Ang mga iniangkop na email ay malaki ang naitutulong sa pagpapataas ng open at click rates kumpara sa mga pangkalahatang mensahe.

Pagtipid sa Oras

Mabilis makagawa ang AI ng mga bahagi ng email tulad ng mga subject line o buong katawan ng email sa loob ng ilang segundo. Pinipino ng mga marketer ang output sa halip na magsulat mula sa simula.

Pag-optimize at Mga Insight

Maraming A/B test ang pinapatakbo ng AI at sinusuri ang mga resulta nang mas mabilis kaysa sa tao, awtomatikong tinutukoy kung ano ang pinakamahusay para sa tuloy-tuloy na pagpapabuti.

Pangunahing benepisyo: Ginagawang mas epektibo, mas personalized, at mas mahusay ng AI ang email marketing sa pamamagitan ng pagpapadala ng mas magagandang email na nagpapataas ng open at click rates habang nakakatipid ng oras ang mga koponan.
Benefits of AI in Email Marketing
Mga Benepisyo ng AI sa Email Marketing

Paglikha ng Nilalaman gamit ang AI

Ang paggawa ng nilalaman para sa email ay natural na bagay para sa AI. Ang mga generative language model ay maaaring gumawa ng mga subject line, preview text, body copy, at calls-to-action mula sa simpleng mga prompt.

HubSpot AI Email Creation

Kasama sa email editor ng HubSpot ang AI feature kung saan ilalarawan mo ang mga layunin ng kampanya at audience, at awtomatikong gagawa ito ng buong draft ng email (subject, preview, katawan, CTAs) para sa iyo. Ipinapasok mo ang mga detalye tulad ng audience, impormasyon ng produkto, at nais na aksyon, at pinupunan ng tool ang subject line, katawan, at iba pang mga field nang awtomatiko.

Mailchimp Intuit Assist

Nag-aalok ang Mailchimp ng "Intuit Assist" na feature na gumagamit ng AI. Maaari kang mag-type ng prompt tulad ng "Anunsyo ng sale para sa aming summer sale" at gagawa ang assistant ng subject line, preview text, at email copy na tumutugma sa boses ng iyong brand. Ginagawa nitong mas madali ang brainstorming mula sa blangkong pahina sa simpleng pagsusulat ng prompt. Kailangan lang ng mga user na i-tweak at aprubahan ang output ng AI.

Mga Pinakamahusay na Praktis

Gamitin ang mga AI content tool para malampasan ang writer's block o pabilisin ang paggawa. Ang isang AI model (ChatGPT o katulad) ay maaaring magbigay ng buong ideya kapag nagbigay ka ng pangunahing impormasyon tungkol sa iyong negosyo o kampanya. Kahit hindi mo gamitin nang literal ang teksto ng AI, maaari itong magbigay ng mga malikhaing subject line o talata sa katawan.

Laging suriin at i-edit ang nilalaman na ginawa ng AI. I-proofread ang mga output para sa katumpakan at pagkakapareho ng brand. Gamitin ang AI para mabilis na mag-draft ng nilalaman ng email, pagkatapos ay i-polish ito upang umangkop sa iyong tono at mga katotohanan.

AI Email Content Creation
Paglikha ng Nilalaman ng Email gamit ang AI

Personalization at Segmentation

Namumukod-tangi ang AI sa personalization. Ang tradisyunal na mga email campaign ay maaaring magpadala ng isang mensahe sa lahat, ngunit pinapayagan ka ng AI na iangkop ang bawat email sa interes at pag-uugali ng indibidwal.

Gamit ang data ng customer (mga nakaraang pagbili, pag-uugali sa website, mga click), maaaring awtomatikong i-segment ng mga algorithm ng AI ang iyong listahan sa napaka-tiyak na mga grupo. Halimbawa, maaaring:

  • Mag-assign ng lead scores upang tukuyin ang mga prospect na may mataas na potensyal
  • Maghanap ng "lookalike" audiences ng mga prospect na malamang mag-convert
  • Palitan ang iba't ibang mga larawan, alok, o salita batay sa profile ng tatanggap
  • I-personalize ang oras ng pagpapadala para sa bawat indibidwal

Ibig sabihin ng dynamic personalization na nararamdaman ng bawat subscriber na ang email ay ginawa para sa kanila. Halimbawa, nag-aalok ang platform ng ActiveCampaign ng dynamic content personalization, na awtomatikong iniangkop ang mga larawan at CTA ng email sa mga kagustuhan ng bawat tatanggap.

Palakihin nang may kaugnayan: Ginagawa ng AI na posible ang "napaka-personalized at targeted na nilalaman sa malawakang saklaw" – mga kampanyang parang one-to-one kahit na ipinapadala sa libu-libo. Gamitin ang mga AI feature ng iyong email tool upang mag-set up ng mga patakaran o prompt upang makita ng bawat tao ang pinakamahusay na nilalaman para sa kanila.

Pag-optimize ng Oras at Dalas

Halos kasinghalaga ng nilalaman ang oras ng pagpapadala ng email. Makakatulong ang AI na i-schedule ang mga email sa oras na pinakamalamang makipag-ugnayan ang bawat tao.

Ang mga tool na tinatawag na "send-time optimization" o "perfect timing" ay gumagamit ng machine learning upang suriin ang mga nakaraang pagbukas at pag-click. Sinusuri ng mga platform kung kailan nagbukas ng email ang mga subscriber noon at awtomatikong nagpapadala ng mga bagong email sa mga pinakamainam na oras na iyon.

Mga pagbukas ng email sa unang oras 21.2%

Ipinapakita ng mga pag-aaral na ang timing na pinapagana ng AI ay maaaring malaking mapabuti ang mga pagbukas at pag-click. Karamihan sa engagement sa email ay nangyayari sa unang araw, na may pinakamataas na konsentrasyon sa unang oras. Ginagamit ng mga modernong platform ng email ang AI upang matutunan ang mga peak na ito at i-optimize nang naaayon.

Gayundin, maaaring i-adjust ng AI ang dalas ng pagpapadala batay sa tugon:

  • Kung hindi kailanman binubuksan ng subscriber ang iyong mga email, maaaring bawasan ng AI kung gaano kadalas nila ito matatanggap
  • Ang mga aktibong user ay maaaring makatanggap ng mas maraming email
  • Natuto at nag-aangkop ang sistema sa paglipas ng panahon

Gamitin ang mga AI-based na feature sa pag-schedule upang awtomatikong ayusin ang oras: hayaan ang sistema ang magpasya kung kailan (at gaano kadalas) dapat makatanggap ng email ang bawat tao para sa pinakamataas na epekto.

AI Email Send Time Optimization
Pag-optimize ng Oras ng Pagpapadala ng Email gamit ang AI

A/B Testing at Pag-optimize

Malaki ang maitutulong ng AI sa pagpapahusay ng pagsubok at pagsusuri sa mga email campaign. Tradisyunal, sinusubukan ng mga marketer ang isang elemento (tulad ng mga subject line) sa isang bahagi ng listahan. Pinapalawak ng AI ito sa pamamagitan ng pagsusuri ng maraming pagsubok at kahit pagsusulong ng mga pagpapabuti.

Pag-optimize ng Nilalaman

Kasama sa platform ng Mailchimp ang Content Optimizer na nire-review ang kopya, mga larawan, at layout ng iyong email. Kinukumpara nito ang iyong kampanya sa mga benchmark ng industriya at nagrerekomenda ng mga pagbabago (hal., pagdagdag ng mga link o pag-aayos ng typography) upang mapataas ang engagement.

Predictive Testing

Maraming AI tool ang maaaring hulaan kung alin ang mananalo. Maaari nitong subukan ang maraming subject line at pinipino ang mga ito: "Kapag ginamit mo ang AI para subukan ang mga subject line ng email, malalaman mo kung alin ang nagdudulot ng mas mataas na engagement," at pagkatapos ay gamitin ang kaalamang iyon sa mga susunod na pagpapadala. Sa katunayan, isang marketer ang nakakita ng 10× na pagbuti sa kahusayan ng A/B testing gamit ang generative AI para gumawa at suriin ang nilalaman.

Praktikal na Pagpapatupad

Karaniwang nagbibigay ang mga platform ng email ng visual na mga tool para sa A/B testing. Halimbawa, pinapayagan ka ng split-test workflow ng Mailchimp na magpadala ng dalawang variant ng email (A laban sa B) sa iba't ibang segment at sukatin kung alin ang mas mahusay.

Sa praktika, gamitin ang AI analytics upang tukuyin ang nanalong nilalaman. Hayaan ang mga tool na magpatakbo ng multivariate tests sa mga headline, larawan, at body copy. Suriin ang mga insight na ginawa ng AI upang maunawaan kung ano ang tumatanggap, pagkatapos ay pinuhin ang iyong mga kampanya. Tinitiyak ng data-driven na pamamaraang ito na mas mahusay ang bawat kampanya kaysa sa nauna.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does HubSpot Marketing Hub offer a free plan?

Yes — there is a free tier that includes basic email marketing tools, CRM, forms, and landing pages, allowing up to a defined number of sends.

Important Considerations

Enterprise Pricing: Salesforce Marketing Cloud does not offer a free plan for full functionality. Pricing is customised and typically starts at high entry levels, making it best suited for large enterprises.
  • Implementation complexity: Setup requires significant time, technical expertise and often external consulting, which increases total cost of ownership.
  • Consumption-based pricing: Costs are based on contacts, messages and channels used, which can escalate sharply with volume.
  • Over-engineered for small businesses: SMBs with simpler marketing needs may find the platform too complex and less cost-efficient compared to lightweight email marketing tools.
  • Learning curve: The platform's extensive feature set requires training and onboarding for marketing teams to use effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Salesforce Marketing Cloud offer a free trial?

While Salesforce offers free trials for some of its products, Salesforce Marketing Cloud itself does not offer a broad free plan. Pricing requires a custom quote based on your specific needs and contact volume.

Can I use Salesforce Marketing Cloud for email marketing alone?

Yes — Email Studio and related modules support email campaign creation, segmentation and automation. However, the platform's full value is achieved when integrated across multiple channels and data sources for comprehensive customer engagement.

What size company is best suited for this platform?

Large enterprises or organisations with complex marketing automation needs, large contact volumes and a desire for deep CRM integration are best suited. Smaller businesses may find lighter, more affordable email marketing tools more cost-effective.

Can I send SMS and mobile push in addition to email?

Yes — the platform supports multi-channel messaging including SMS, mobile push notifications, web advertising, social media and more, all orchestrated through unified customer journeys.

How does artificial intelligence work in Salesforce Marketing Cloud?

Mga Hakbang sa Pagpapatupad ng AI sa Iyong Email Marketing

Sundin ang istrukturadong pamamaraan na ito upang maisama ang AI sa iyong email marketing strategy:

1

Magsimula sa Malinis na Data

Tiyakin na ang iyong listahan ng subscriber ay napapanahon at tama ang pagkaka-segment. Ang malinis na data (wasto ang mga email, tumpak ang mga preference) ang pundasyon para sa mahusay na AI personalization.

2

Magtakda ng Malinaw na Mga Layunin

Magpasya kung ano ang nais mong makamit (mas mataas na open rates? mas maraming sign-up? muling pag-akit sa mga nawala na user?). Nakakatulong ang malinaw na mga layunin upang gabayan ang paggamit ng AI at sukatin ang tagumpay.

3

Pumili ng AI-Friendly na Platform

Pumili ng email marketing tool na may AI features. Kung gumagamit ka na ng platform, i-enable ang mga AI tool nito o magdagdag ng AI plugins. Kinakailangan ng HubSpot at Mailchimp na i-activate mo ang kanilang AI email generators, habang awtomatikong kasama ng ActiveCampaign ang ilang predictive tools.

4

Gamitin ang AI para sa Nilalaman

Subukan ang paggawa ng subject line o draft ng email gamit ang AI assistant. Mag-type ng prompt sa iyong AI tool ("I-anunsyo ang aming spring sale sa mga tech enthusiast") at suriin ang output. I-tweak kung kinakailangan upang tumugma sa iyong boses at mga katotohanan. Laging i-proofread ang AI-generated na teksto para sa katumpakan.

5

I-personalize at I-segment

Mag-set up ng AI-driven personalization rules. Gamitin ang mga feature ng iyong tool upang maglagay ng dynamic content (tulad ng mga unang pangalan, mga suhestiyon ng produkto). Gamitin ang AI-powered segmentation upang matiyak na ang bawat email ay tumatama sa pinaka-angkop na bahagi ng audience.

6

I-optimize ang Oras ng Pagpapadala

I-enable ang anumang "send-time optimization" feature upang matutunan ng sistema kung kailan pinakamalamang buksan ng bawat contact ang mga email. Maaaring isang click lang ang kailangan para dito.

7

Subukan at Ulitin

Gamitin ang mga A/B testing tool at AI analytics upang tuklasin kung ano ang gumagana. Ihambing ang iba't ibang subject line, kopya, larawan, atbp. Hayaan ang AI na suriin ang mga resulta upang makita kung alin ang pinakamahusay (mas mataas na open/click).

8

Suriin at Pinuhin

Pagkatapos ng bawat kampanya, tingnan ang mga ulat na pinapagana ng AI. Panatilihin ang mga estratehiyang nagtagumpay (mas mataas na engagement), at ayusin ang mga hindi. Panatilihin ang human oversight: tiyakin na ang mga rekomendasyon ng AI ay angkop sa iyong brand at mga pamantayan sa pagsunod.

Patuloy na siklo ng pagpapabuti: Sundin ang pattern na ito: Planuhin → Gumawa → Magpadala → Suriin → Ulitin. Sa paglipas ng panahon, natututo ang mga AI tool mula sa iyong data, kaya unti-unting bumubuti ang iyong mga kampanya sa kaugnayan at performance.

Mga Pinakamahusay na Praktis at Tip

Panatilihin ang Boses ng Brand

Ang AI ay isang katulong, hindi kapalit. Laging i-edit ang AI-generated na kopya upang matiyak na ang tono ay tumutugma sa iyong brand at tama ang mga katotohanan.

Protektahan ang Privacy

Gamitin ang first-party data para sa AI personalization at sundin ang mga regulasyon (tulad ng GDPR) kapag gumagamit ng AI. Pumili ng mga platform na sumusunod sa GDPR upang mapanatiling ligtas ang data.

Magsimula sa Maliit

Kung bago ka sa AI, subukan ang isang feature sa isang pagkakataon. Subukan ang mga AI-generated na subject line sa maliit na listahan bago ito ipamahagi sa lahat.

Panatilihin ang Oversight

Kahit na hawak ng AI ang mga gawain, dapat panatilihin ng mga marketer ang human oversight para sa pagkakapareho ng brand at tiyakin na hindi lumilihis ang AI sa mensahe.

Ulitin gamit ang Mga Insight

Gamitin ang data at mga suhestiyon na ibinibigay ng AI upang patuloy na pinuhin ang iyong estratehiya. Sukatin ang mga resulta at ayusin upang ang iyong AI strategy ay konektado sa iyong data.
