In this week's Ask Us Anything episode, Jay tackles a work question about the biggest marketing mistake marketers make and a fun question asking which coffee chain has the best coffee - Starbucks, Dunkin' or McDonald's.Main Discussion Points:- The biggest marketing mistake is related to speed - not getting back to leads and customers fast enough (around 24 hours for business, 5 minutes for consumers)- For business leads, follow up within 24 hours or open and response rates drop 30%+- For consumers getting discounts and promo codes, send within 5 minutes or usage drops 40%- Abandoned shopping carts - send email around 6 hours later for best re-engagement- Jay drinks too much coffee and doesn't want to hear about it- Dunkin' coffee tastes better but Starbucks pulls you in moreAnd MASSIVE thank you to our Sponsor, Marigold!!Marigold is a relationship marketing platform designed to help you acquire new customers and turn them into superfans with their best-in-class loyalty solutions.
