Email Marketing
Email Marketing
Email marketing is an excellent way of promoting products, services and events direct to your customers, business prospects, members and suppliers who have explicitly requested to receive emails from you regarding a specifi c subject. Recipient responses to email marketing messages can be tracked and measured providing you with powerful insights into the interests of your audience. This data can then help you make more informed decisions when creating future campaigns enabling you to segment and target specifi c groups interested in certain subjects or tailoring the content to engage specifi c subscribers.

Intelligent Sending Options and Reliable Delivery
When it’s time to send your email we provide you all the options you need to control who receives it and when. Before sending your campaign it’s good practice to test your email. You can send as many test emails as you like, for free. You can create as many subscriber lists as you like and segment these lists to target sub-groups of subscribers. You can choose to schedule a campaign to be delivered on a particular date and time or send immediately.
Our Industry leading mail servers are whitelisted by major ISP’s, so your emails won’t get fl agged as spam. Your content needs to be relevant and top quality. If your email does contain spammy content you can run it through our spam fi lters before sending. Our smart bounce processing automatically detects diff erent types of bounces and reacts accordingly and email addresses that no longer work are removed from your lists immediately. Temporary fails are given additional chances before removal which keeps your subscriber lists nice and clean.

Pay Monthly
The monthly plan is designed for those who send frequently or have larger lists. Note that you can swap between the Pay Monthly plan and the Pay As You Go plan if you would like your account to be maintained but not to the pay monthly account during the dormant period.
