EMAIL MARKETING

Karen J. Bannan
Coupons may not seem like a good bet for b-to-b marketers, conjuring up visions of online retailers that offer free shipping or free gifts to turn a quick sale.

John Wechsler, president, FormSpring

Neil Berman, president-CEO, Delivra
Many e-mail marketers seeking new ways to engage their audience are considering using video in e-mail. Video is popular because senders can achieve higher click-through rates and better user engagement, and can control their brand while maintaining an ongoing conversation.

It’s a rare marketer that doesn’t mess up once in a while. Whether it’s leaving a place holder in a subject line, sending out the wrong call to action or inserting the wrong link. At some time, in some e-mail, you’re going to make a mistake.

Kevin Senne, global director of deliverability, Premiere Global Services
