Enhance Your Digital Marketing Toolbox With rasa.io!

Save time curating your email newsletters so you can spend your efforts on the “bajillion” other things you need to do.

SmithDigital partnered with rasa.io to add another tool to the toolbox of solutions it offers clients.

Before teaming up with rasa.io, SmithDigital determined that sending email newsletters would be too time-consuming and too costly. Although they had considered using other platforms like HubSpot, SmithDigital didn’t see the need for newsletters until they discovered what was possible with rasa.io.

With rasa.io, SmithDigital has been able to pull together high-quality newsletters, send them to its client’s audiences, and get data automatically fed back into their integrated HubSpot platform, with engagement reports in near real-time. As a result, SmithDigital has saved time and added significant value for its clients.

SmithDigital is harnessing the power of rasa.io’s AI-driven newsletters to deliver results to its clients

SmithDigital’s clients are reaping the benefits of rasa.io’s AI technologies in ways the company never imagined possible.

Before partnering with rasa.io, SmithDigital’s team never gave much thought to AI. However, with all of the current buzz around the subject, the SmithDigital team didn’t fully grasp what it meant in terms of newsletter software, according to company president Eric Smith.

“I was not aware of rasa.io when it was first brought to our attention,” he explained. In all honesty, I really didn’t see a need for newsletters until I discovered what was possible with rasa.io.”

Now, SmithDigital is harnessing AI power to send out email newsletters tailored to individual subscribers’ interests, creating a hyper-personal experience.

Smith was also impressed with how easy it was to get his team working with the rasa.io newsletter platform.

“It was a fairly quick ramp,” he said. “I had never used newsletter software in the past but felt the product was fairly intuitive and had a logical flow to the setup and sending.”

He says that his team spends less than an hour per month pulling the newsletters together for all of the company’s various clients.

SmithDigital is especially grateful for rasa.io’s easy integrations with popular marketing platforms like HubSpot

Beyond being able to quickly and easily put together high-quality newsletters and deliver them to client audiences, Smith says that getting data automatically fed back into HubSpot has also been a huge time saver and significant value add for clients. In addition, he and his team love the fact that engagement reports are delivered in near real-time. He notes that this data is obviously important as the company’s mission is to help businesses grow. 

“All of our clients leverage the HubSpot tech stack,” he explained. “Being able to pool all external data into one system (HubSpot) makes reporting a breeze.”

Best of all, integrating rasa.io with HubSpot was quick and easy.

He continued, “It was pretty straightforward. It took less than 10 minutes to connect to HubSpot.”

The integration between rasa.io and HubSpot allows SmithDigital to streamline its email marketing efforts by automatically syncing subscriber data between the two platforms. Here’s how it works:

  • SmithDigital connected rasa.io and HubSpot: The first step to integrating rasa.io with HubSpot was to connect the two platforms.
  • SmithDigital synced up subscriber data: Once the integration was set up, rasa.io automatically synced subscriber data from HubSpot, including name, email address, and any custom fields. SmithDigital then used this data to personalize its newsletters and target specific segments of client audiences.
  • SmithDigital created and sent newsletters: Using the rasa.io platform, SmithDigital can automatically create and send personalized newsletters to each and every client’s subscribers. Using artificial intelligence, rasa.io analyzes subscriber behavior and preferences and automatically curates relevant and engaging content for each recipient.
  • SmithDigital tracks engagement: As subscribers interact with its client newsletters, engagement data is captured in rasa.io and synced back to HubSpot, allowing SmithDigital to track the effectiveness of its email marketing campaigns and make data-driven decisions about how to improve them, such as new content, products, and more.

Overall, the integration between rasa.io and HubSpot has helped SmithDigital streamline the email marketing process by automating data sync and personalization.

SmithDigital uses a mix of curated internal and external content to deliver the best results for its clients

The newsletters that SmithDigital produces have featured a mix of internal and external content in its client newsletters.

“I personally like having a mix of content from various sources that are industry-centric,” explains Smith. “It is really helpful to provide a well-rounded mix of content versus having everything come from only one source. Plus, leveraging external content is a huge time saver!”        

The company has also mastered the art of curating internal content in its client newsletters.

“Depending upon the client’s audience, I like to have assets at the top of the newsletter to accomplish a few different goals,” Smith says. “In some situations, I may have a blog asset I’m trying to drive increased traffic to support SEO goals. In other situations, I may feature a blog at the top of the newsletter in an attempt to drive conversions.”

Either way, he says, rasa.io gives SmithDigital a wide range of possibilities, and the positive results have been measurable.    

“I’ve noticed situations where stale leads that have gone cold have been warmed back with specific CTAs,” he says. I have even seen meetings booked on calendars as a result of the rasa.io newsletter.”
