Email Marketing....A great thing?..Absolutely!

I want to tell you how easily influenced I am, but first, you have to know that I fulfill the stereotype of the absent minded gift giving husband to a "T."
I'm very well aware (at some level) that Mother's Day is this Sunday...You MEN knew that right?
And here it is, Wednesday, and do you think I have purchased a gift (well.....I have NOW, but that's just because it's the center of this blog I'm writing as we speak)?

...So the point of this blog is that......

...sitting in my inbox this afternoon was an email from a retailer with a couple of price sensitive and varied gift suggestions, which, until this afternoon, were not even a thought...

I logged onto the site, looked around on a couple of pages, and made my purchase...all in less than 5 minutes....(by the way, that is not a reflection of the love I have for my Mom, or Wife...).

Pretty cool...

So I say, Market to your customers using email!  http://www.iContact.com, http://www.Constantcontact.com are two solutions I've used with great results....

Happy Hunting....and Happy Mother's Day!

Be on Purpose!
