How to measure marketing success with E-maıl Sıgnatures

[vc_row][vc_column][mk_fancy_title font_family=”none”]E-mail signatures are one of the most targeted digital marketing tools. Especially in our work routine, all e-mails sent by all employees in line with their communication needs can be used as marketing endpoints. But, how? In this article, you can see the integration steps of the interaction reports via e-mail signatures to the Google Analytics platform and discover the market potential.

Google Analytics uses two basic methods to collect data on website traffic from 3rd party domains.

  1. Connectors on Google Analytics
  2. UTM and similar routing parameters

The Google Analytics connectors are sections that you can integrate with your Google Analytics properties by connecting with your authorized user information through channels such as Google Ads and Youtube. These integrations include your Google Ads advertisements on Google Analytics screens, the traffic and feedback generated by these advertisements. It allows you to create your digital marketing strategy by viewing how much of your total traffic it has generated and its total impact in a segmented manner with the traffic from these channels.

On the other hand, in order to link your website to Google Analytics screens, you need to add the Tracking Code page tags under the Admin > Tracking Info tab to the section of all the pages of your website.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture1.png” image_size=”full” lightbox=”true”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”none”]UTM (Urchin Tracking Module) parameters are used to define where and for what purpose the traffic directed to the website from influencer marketing, social media advertisements, newsletters and all similar content from third party domains. It basically means creating a custom redirect URL by adding additional text to the URL you use to redirect your website. You need to add 4 parameters to have the access from this link reflected well on Google Analytics reports.

  • Website URL
  • Campaign Source
  • Campaign Medium
  • Campaign Name

Here is an example:

The new URL: https://peakup.org/global/signgo/?utm_source=signngo&utm_medium=emailbanner&utm_campaign=emailsignature

The redirection created by these parameters transmits the description of the information contained in the other items while
directing the users to the site defined in the URL section.

While editing your e-mail signatures with the Sign&Go application, you can create corporate signatures similar to the designs below. Allowing you to define links to banner advertisements while creating signatures, Sign & Go creates a template that includes special UTM parameters as defined above for all emails sent throughout the company.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture2.gif” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”none”]After this step, all individuals who click the banners in your mail signature will be anonymously reflected in your Google Analytics reports and your e-mail signatures’ contribution to the website traffic will be reflected in your reports.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture3.png” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”none”]When you enter your Google Analytics panel, Medium and Source sections of all report fields, especially of the Traffic Sources section under the Realtime tab under the Reports section, appear as defined just like in the 4th line of the table in the visual above.

With Sign&Go, you can turn your company-wide signatures into the most effective direct marketing tool and make sure that you use digital media effectively while creating quality signatures that reflect your brand’s power.[/mk_fancy_title][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/signandgo_imza_son.gif” image_size=”full” link=”https://peakup.org/global/signgo/”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

We planted saplings for International Women’s Day

[mk_page_section][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][mk_fancy_title color=”#000000″ size=”20″ font_family=”none”]PEAKUP donated saplings on behalf of their employees on March 8, International Women’s Day.

PEAKUP organized a meaningful organization on March 8, International Working Women’s Day this year, just like every year and donated saplings on behalf of their teammates. The team planted the saplings in Kağıthane Hasbahçe with the participation of the Mayor of Kağıthane, Mevlüt Öztekin, for the International Women’s Day.

PEAKUP wants to leave a mark that can be passed on from generation to generation, and for this, has brought its saplings to the soil with the support of Kağıthane Municipality with the planting of Ginkgo Biloba trees, which represent durability, originality and eternity on behalf of the entire team.

PEAKUP CEO Ahmet Toprakçı said, “As PEAKUP, we support women in every aspect and continue our activities as much as possible to set an inspiration and example for our company. In our company, we always ensure the balance of the number of female and male employees and equal rights. This year, we hope that the trees we donated on March 8, International Working Women’s Day, will continue to live by reflecting our women with their originality and all their elegance.”[/mk_fancy_title][mk_padding_divider][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhToGG0IU-M”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][/mk_page_section]

E-mail signature management: SIGN&GO WEBINAR with ÇÖZÜMPARK

[mk_page_section][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][mk_fancy_title color=”#000000″ size=”20″ font_family=”none”]What is the contribution of e-mail signatures in the digital business environment? Do they really acts as a business card of the companies?

In recent years, the importance of professional e-mail signatures around the world has turned into a powerful marketing tool, benefiting companies’ success and brand recognition on a large scale.

SHAREPOINT ONLINE: MIGRATE YOUR FILE SERVER SERVICE TO THE CLOUD

[vc_row][vc_column][mk_fancy_title font_family=”Roboto” font_type=”google”]Hello everyone. In this article, we will talk about the SharePoint Online solution we have offered to our customers when their employees that work outside of the office have recently encountered a problem when they connected to the File Server system via VPN.

 

First of all, SharePoint Online is a cloud-based service under Office 365. In order to access SharePoint Online, all you need is a device with an internet connection. Therefore, you can access it with your username and password on any device that can access the internet without the need for any VPN tool or integration.

 

HOW DO I MIGRATE DATA TO SHAREPOINT ONLINE?

We can easily migrate our data on the Local File Server to the SharePoint Online infrastructure by using the SharePoint Migration Tool. After installing the migration tool on the File Server, we log into the application on SharePoint Online with an authorized user.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture1.png” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”Roboto” font_type=”google”]As you can see below, we can get the folders/files in Local transferred by selecting File share on the screen that pops up. And we will continue with the File Share option.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture2.png” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”Roboto” font_type=”google”]Here, we will determine which folder will be migrated. In this example, since we will migrate the “Share” folder on the Local File Server and the files under it, we will select the Share folder.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture3-1.png” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”Roboto” font_type=”google”]After determining our folder, it is time to choose which service to move our data to under Office 365. As you can see here, we can transfer our data to SharePoint Online, as well as to Teams or OneDrive infrastructures by using a migration tool. In this example, we will choose SharePoint.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture4-1.png” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”Roboto” font_type=”google”]In the settings we have done so far, we have determined that we will transfer a folder in the Local File Server to SharePoint. Here, we will determine to which site we will transfer our data in the SharePoint infrastructure. In this example, we will use the EG-SPO site on SharePoint.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture5-1.png” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”Roboto” font_type=”google”]While our data is being transferred, we can determine our migration methods with the settings you will see in the image below. In this example, we will choose to migrate the version histories of the files we will transfer. When we press the Migrate button, the Share folder we have determined in the Local File Server will start to be transferred to the SharePoint Site we have chosen.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture6-1.png” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”Roboto” font_type=”google”]It will take time to transfer the files according to the size of our data. When the file transfer is complete, you will see the screen below. On this screen, you can access the report of the file migration process and analyze whether there is a problem. We see that our file migration has been successful. Now, let’s see together how to access the files we have transferred to SharePoint.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture7-1.png” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”Roboto” font_type=”google”]As you can see below, when I access my SharePoint Site through portal.office.com, the folder I transferred under Documents is available.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture8-1.png” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”Roboto” font_type=”google”]From this point on, just like the authorization logic you use on the Local File Server, you can make user or group-based authorizations on SharePoint with the help of “Manage Access”, enabling authorized people to access this folder.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture9-1.png” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”Roboto” font_type=”google”]So far, we have actually seen how easy it was to transfer our data. I think the question you will have in your mind will be this: How will our users access this data? Our users can easily access their files in the SharePoint online infrastructure if they access the portal.office.com address from any device. A second method is, as you can see on the screen below, when the users press the “Sync” button, they can map the relevant folder to their Windows 10 computers with the OneDrive agent.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture10-1.png” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”Roboto” font_type=”google”]After pressing the Sync button, they will receive a warning suggesting that if the OneDrive agent is not installed on their computer, they should install it, or if the OneDrive agent is installed, as in my example, they will receive a warning that says “Open with OneDrive”. We will select Open with OneDrive.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture12-1.png” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”Roboto” font_type=”google”]After completing the OneDrive agent processes, as you can see in the image below, we can use the SharePoint Site and the folders and files under it in a format mapped to my computer. After this point, the users can work under this map and each file that they will save in this location will be directly sync to SharePoint Online.[/mk_fancy_title][mk_image src=”https://peakup.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/picture13-1.png” image_size=”full”][mk_fancy_title font_family=”Roboto” font_type=”google”]We sought, in this article with you, answers to the questions of how our data from Local File Server is transferred to the SharePoint infrastructure and how it affects the user experience. Hope to see you in our next article.
