Email advertising has become a very reliable way to boost revenue. Unlike traditional paper mailings and leaflets, email updates and advertisements need only be created once and then sent out to everybody on your mailing list.

Let's just be clear about one thing first; this is not spam!

Spam is junk email that is sent out to any email address that the originators can get their hands on.

Email advertisements and updates are a much more refined method of reaching your potential customers.

Spam is an axe while targeted emails are a scalpel.

As you've probably noticed, email client programs are now capable of displaying HTML and other web code in the body of an email. So, if you use a high quality web design program, you can quickly create professional looking email advertisements.

What' more once you create the first one, you can simply save it as a template file that can be reused over and over again.

This will create a unity of design and give your advertisements a unique appearance.

Of course, before you can send out these professional advertisements and updates you just made, you need people to send them to. That is where email capture comes in.

If you've spent any amount of time on the internet, you've seen email capture forms. They're the little boxes that essentially say, "Hey, do you like what you're seeing and want to receive updates? Give us your email address and we'll tell you."

Once your email address is entered onto the list, and confirmed (called "double opt-in" you'll start receiving the email advertisements and updates.

The best part about this system is that the people who decide to sign up for the list are already heavily disposed towards visiting your site or purchasing items from your business.

After all, if they didn't like your website, they wouldn't have signed up. This small little email capture box is building you a list of potential customers that are very likely to either visit again or purchase items.

The best part is that email capture forms are incredibly easy to enter if you're using a high quality web design program.

Just a couple clicks of the mouse button and it will be created. And, like any other item on your website, it can be modified to fit the aesthetic of your website.

Email captures are automated systems, too, so once you've created it once, you can just sit back and watch your customer list grow.
