After Dirt Came Software
Email software sends and manages our email marketing efforts. Well, how did software come about in the first place? I'm glad you asked. I think its about time we all learn the origin of software. I mean this lens wouldn't exist without it. Or my late night WOW sessions.
Email Marketing Software
We are in the business of low budget marketing right? What better way to top off the monthly booking with a email service that starts at $9.95. Or better yet , free. Yeah , these guys let you send for free for the first month. Everyone knows free is the new pink.
Godin's Brain Has software Installed In It
What would a marketing lens be without citing the marketing man himself, Seth Godin. He made squidoo , he writes books , and he knows everything under the sun about online marketing. Sounds like we all have a lot to learn.
Video Email
Polish off your " do-it-yourself" email marketing efforts with video. These guys ( you would think i am from jersey with lingo like that ) allow you to send video and email in one fail swoop. Tim Ferris always sends video in his emails. And I always click on them. Sounds like someone is doing something right. Either that or I like burning day light. I think is a little bit of both.
Save Money with Viral Email Marketing
Beep Beep buzzword alert. So what is " Viral Email Marketing". Is it like a virus? Like the cold I had haunting me the other day? Thats what i use to think. But then i figured out it meant getting more people to care about the emails you send. Boy was I way off.

Email Software Takes Forever To learn! 

Learn to aquire a email marketer's speed

As an online business owner or manager, there are many tedious tasks you must manage, from balancing your books to ordering new products. But with email marketing software, the most successful online promotional software out there, you can take the sting out of these ho-hum tasks.

If you've run your own email marketing campaigns without the proper software, you're probably used to cutting and pasting every single email address into your system. However, with online email marketing software and services, you can set up a sign-up box on your site and have those email addresses automatically get fed into your list.

Email marketing software can also automate many other tasks. Imagine being able to simply create your email template or layout, choose the email list you want to send it to, and simply send away at a scheduled time. That's the advantage of online promotional software that focuses on email marketing. You no longer need to manually send each email. You can also store your lists online, segment your list by customer likes and dislikes, and plan automatic "drip" campaigns to build anticipation about a sale or other special event.

But Email Software Is Too Expensive! 

Low budget marketing at it's finest

No other type of marketing is as cheap - or successful - as email marketing. While TV, radio and print ads are still popular, they lack focus because they target a large group, most of which is not the customers that need to be reached. With email marketing software, you can manage your email list to send different emails to different customers. But the real saving is how much you'll pay for this advantage. The top online email marketing services charge pennies on the dollar for groups of emails sent, as opposed to a TV, radio or print ad, which can cost hundreds or thousands of dollars.

With the targeted features of email promotional software, you get a better return on investment because you're sending only to customers who want to hear what you have to say. For a bargain basement price of pennies on the dollar, you can create dynamic campaigns that reach your most valuable customer - a huge advantage over TV, radio and print ads, which go out to anyone who tunes in or opens a newspaper.
