Hi guys,

We are looking to do a monthly email campaign to around 50,000 customers that have bought of our website in the past but are not sure who are the best people to use to help with the emails. We will design our emails in house so are looking for someone to provide the facility of sending them out and tracking them.

We sell Prescription Glasses and Sunglasses worldwide so would like the ability to target different campaigns to different areas of the world, obviously a Summer campaign would only be useful for customers in the Northern Hemisphere when it's summer up here.

Anyone have any recommendations?

Cheers
James

We started using wizemail recently. We've only done one mailing so far but the system is very impressive.

wizemail got my vote ... just don't get as much time to use it as we would like.

We're using email reaction (I think they've just changed their name to something like smart focus digital though) - can't recommend them highly enough.

Hi James - YHM.

Thanks for the www.wizemail.co.uk recommendations guys - you'll be getting an email in the next few weeks about some huge upgrades to the system happening before the end of the year.

All free to my PH buddies.

Take care,

I feel a board meeting is in order to discuss - drink - standard or extra cold?

Do you do reseller deals on that we're using another product ( hangs head in shame) for our clients at the moment

Hi Graham,
Certainly do. We can set you up with a master account and allocate your clients as child accounts - they only see their own system whereas you have access to everyone’s.

We then bill you for all cumulative email volume, you bill each client for their portion of that volume + set-up + design services etc.

Either you or Wizemail can handle the support/client contact - the client remains yours regardless.

Here are my details - get in touch when you're free and we can go over the requirements.
Best,
Don

TA, I'll get Tony ( my business partner ) to have a look when he gets back from holiday, although after the day I've just had explaining the difference between plain text and html e-mails, and why not everyone can see the fully formatted html I may just shoot myself !!!!

cheers

We use www.openemm.org - which is free. Send out about 100,000 per month, via various campaigns and has not put a foot wrong so far...

Cheers
