Why email is still the number one channel for B2B growth.

Published

While many think of email marketing as primarily a B2C tool, its impact in the B2B space is often underestimated.

If you’re a marketing director, or work in a marketing team in the B2B or corporate space, this three minute read is for you.

Here’s why email remains one of the best tools for the corporate marketing team (and why it deserves a closer look if you’re not prioritising it right now).

  • Saves time and budget: email is the most efficient form of digital marketing

  • High ROI: we know email outperforms paid channels

  • Easy to set up: can be up and running in a day, and integrated with sign-up/contact forms on your website

  • CRM integration: enterprise email platforms (such as ActiveCampaign) integrate brilliantly with Salesforce, Hubspot, MS Dynamics, Apollo (and many, many more)

  • Works with AI agents: built-in AI allows you to streamline and improve the creation, execution and measurement of email campaigns 

  • Email is preferred: research shows that business contacts prefer to receive their updates and content via email, rather than on social channels or looking for updates on your website

  • Automated marketing: platforms like ActiveCampaign make it easy to build automated journeys, personalised messaging, and behaviour-based campaigns

  • Segmentation: tailoring your message to specific audiences drives higher open and click-through rates

  • Insights: from broad trends right down to an individual user, you can measure engagement and content preferences

  • Entire customer cycle: there is no better marketing tool to cover the entire journey from prospecting to conversion and retention 

  • Easy to work with and delivers great results
