What makes a drip email campaign successful? When creating a drip email campaign, your purpose shouldn’t be to close deals; leave that to your sales team! You should instead be providing a gentle reminder that you’re there and can provide value. While you’re ‘warming up the lead’, you should always be providing value. A successful drip email campaign should be mutually beneficial. The lead will consider you a valuable contact if you’re sending useful content.
