Here are some of the ways to evaluate the present marketing program is still okay or if there is something to address to adapt to the current situation:

Check the mailing schedule.

Reviewing the time when the audience reaches the campaign is one of the considerations in assessing the performance of any marketing campaign. In this field, timing is also vital because it is used in making schedules, especially to the seasonal campaigns.

Unexpected events like the current pandemic will likely cause a major shift in the current scheduling tactics. At this point, the concerns of the audience and motivations they need have to modify for some time. Reviewing the mailing schedule is needed to check for revisions to ensure meeting the audience’s reflections. This doesn’t mean to create drastic changes in the timing and schedule, but rather, use the existing marketing campaigns at the appropriate date and time.

Evaluate the email content.

Times like these are quite sensitive, so another thing to check on is the content of the campaigns. This is crucial because this is the part that directly impacts the audience that is why it is important to assess if the structure- from the subject line up to the graphics, makes sense despite the present circumstances. 

For this, the content must be both engaging and appreciated by the audience with the present condition they experience. Moreover, it should be checked if it is appropriate especially those that tackle the issues at these times. With the changes that have to be made, it should be remembered to stay true in maintaining the brand and its personality.

Assess the audience board.

When it comes to considering the audience, most of the time lots of considerations have to be recognized like their location, gender, age category, and lifestyle. To make things more organized, the determination about what part of the audience is impacted with the pandemic and from here, determine ways to message them properly. Also, there are times that it is better not to bring a message to them at this point.
