The third edition of my best-selling email marketing book, Email Marketing Demystified, is now available on Amazon. It is available in paperback, Kindle, and audiobook formats.
The first edition of Email Marketing Demystified was published almost eight years ago. The social media landscape has shifted dramatically during that time. Some platforms like Vine and Google+ no longer exist, while new platforms like Instagram and TikTok have generated massive user bases in just a few short years. Marketers that invested in building audiences on the wrong platforms lost big and people who were early to Instagram and TikTok have benefited from these platforms’ rising popularity.
While social media platforms have come and gone, email’s role as the most-used communications platform online remains unchallenged. The number of global email users surpassed 4 billion people in 2021. That’s nearly 4 times the number of users that the largest current social media platform, Facebook, has registered. Nearly 100,000 non-spam emails are now sent every single second. Billions of dollars worth of commerce are conducted over email every year.
Since the second edition of this book was published in early 2019, there have been several developments that warranted writing a new edition of this book. The third edition of Email Marketing Demystified has been updated to discuss these developments in detail including new best practices, tool recommendations, and tactics to leverage in your email marketing program. When you read the third edition of Email Marketing Demystified, you can rest assured that you are learning the latest email marketing information and strategy.
At MarketBeat, we have now sent more than 5 billion emails to our subscribers since launching our service in 2011.
