Email Marketing Hints and Tips

Dear Harry,
 
Amy Black

We live in a world that loves and relies on email. But ask anyone what their least favorite part of this beloved communication channel is and you will hear a clear answer: spam. It's annoying, it can be dangerous, and there is a fierce battle going on against it. The good news is there are many people working hard to see that legitimate email makes it to the inbox and the junk stays out.

 

This month's tips are dedicated to the very important topic of dealing with spam. You'll learn how you can avoid being seen as a spammer, what measures you can take to get your emails to the inbox, what authentication is and why you should care, and much more!

 

Also in this issue, we feature two of our customers whose email marketing successes have been recognized by the media.

 
When you are done reading, please let me know if you found this issue helpful.

All the best,

Amy Black Signature

But take heart: there are ways to help more of your recipients respond with approval instead of with the spam button.
