Use interactive forms in your email campaigns to increase conversions

By using interactive forms in your email campaigns, you can collect reviews, run surveys, and generate leads from within the email. That's way less friction than static forms that take you out of the email to a webpage. And less friction means a higher likelihood of achieving your goal, whether that's gathering feedback or converting a lead. As for the email clients that don't support interactive forms, the trick is to set up fallbacks. In other words, your emails should take advantage of interactive forms where they work: Apple Mail, Gmail (desktop web), and Yahoo (desktop web). And display a fallback (like a static form that redirects) where they don't: Outlook, Windows, and all mobile devices. If you code, here's how to do it. If not, products like GetFeedback and Salesforce's Content Builder can handle it.

Get journalists to cover your product by coming prepared with a press kit

The key to getting coverage is creating a thorough press kit for your company before reaching out to reporters. It should include the following:

A pitch letter explaining why people should care
A profile overviewing the company and founders
Contact info
Logos
Screenshots and videos of the product
Other news coverage, interviews, speeches, awards, etc.
Customer case studies or useful stats
FAQs

Some people even include a sample news story that journalists can edit and publish without writing their own.

Here are some great press kit examples to get inspiration. Then create a page on your site to house your press kit and reach out to journalists with a link to your press kit front-and-center.
