Why you must have a sales email campaign if you capture leads
Another Monday Morning Website Tip by Marcus Rangel
If you capture leads online, have you ever thought about how those leads should be treated differently than say someone that’s been on your list for 6 months to a year? If you’ve been around sales at all, you know that if someone calls into your office and talks to you – you would consider them either a hot or cold lead throughout your process.
Why is it that we treat online leads any different than someone that we’ve talked to?
Because they are just warming up to you and your business if they’ve requested an item of value from your site. So if someone just requested a Whitepaper, a promo code, or a book you wrote from your site, that is why we must start treating them differently in the ONLINE sales process and why a sales email campaign is so important to your business.
Let’s think about it this way.
Someone requests something from your site, you add them to your list, and they start to receive your (hopefully) weekly email drip that you send out, but maybe it’s monthly.
Take it a step further, say they signed up for something and your list was emailed already yesterday and your next email doesn’t go out until a month later, you just waited almost a month before they got something from you.
What if you could develop a drip that treated those leads differently before you ever added them to your standard drip (which is still very necessary), how cool would that be?
That’s why in next week’s tip – I’m going to show you HOW to build a sales email campaign. The great thing about it is, that once you come up with this campaign, you can use it over and over again.
You heard me right, if it works as great as it should, as Squintz would say in (from one of my all time favorite movies that we just introduced our kids to) “The Sandlot,” FOREVER!
About Marcus Rangel
I've been working with small businesses owners to craft not only beautiful custom websites, but clear, clever and concise messages to reach their prospects since 2005.
I officially hung up my "corporate cleats" to be an entrepreneur and small business owner in the summer of 2020. IMC, which started as a side hustle early in the mornings before the sun was even up in 2017, is what led me down this path as a small business owner myself. I focus on helping other small business owners continually stay in front of people & prospects with email marketing, create websites that generate leads with great engagement, and produce video content that are meant for the digital era we're in.
When I'm not creating, you can find me hanging out with my incredible family on our front lawn or on my OneWheel around the big city of Owasso, OK.

I had never been to Wyoming until the summer of 2025… and I can’t believe it took that long! I got the great chance to work with a 3rd generation ranch owner, Andy Stellpflug, to help share his family’s legacy of their ranching operation that’s been around since 1913. Now I did get to experience pretty much every type of weather when I was up there including rain, breathtaking sunrises, strong winds, and quiet sunsets. But all of that led to a video that I was really proud to submit to the 2026 Pro Movie Maker Filmmaker of the Year Awards. I just got word today that it won, making IMC a two time winner! I had previously won in 2023 for the drone work…
Your website’s most visited page is… you guessed it, your homepage! That’s why I always recommend having a “message from the owner/founder” on the homepage. It immediately humanizes your brand for the website visitor and puts a face to your company. It also leads your website visitor to the about us page (most likely your second most visited page) if worded and done right. What your message should contain: Here are three website examples that I’ve designed and launched recently in 2026 that feature a “Message from the owner” for you to check out! https://walkermasonryinc.com/ https://dupreefarms.com/ https://steep.marketing/
One of the biggest improvements you can make to your existing website is your navigation. The standard “dropdown” is great, but upgrading to a well designed navigation dropdown – or super navigation is really a showstopper. Think about it this way, if a new website visitor is choosing in 5 seconds or less if they want to stay on your website, showcasing your navigation is a great way to stop them in their tracks to want to look around longer.
