You
likely have determined that, with 77% of all Americans
online, including 66% of those aged 50 to 65, using
email to keep in contact with constituents, voters and
supporters is timely and less expensive than snail
mail.
And, if you
have attempted to email to a large list, you likely have
encountered one of the
following:
- You have no idea how
many recipients opened the email that you
sent.
-
It can take hours to
physically send email from your computer to a large
list.
-
Your internet service provider
(ISP) has blocked your email from
going out because of the volume.
-
AOL and Yahoo have blocked your
email from reaching the
recipient.
Is it worth $15 a month to solve
these issues?
Using
the right email
service provider can solve these issues and you can be
up and running in less than a day. Red State New
Media recommends Constant

Content?
Email
marketing is all about building a relationship with your
constituents and potential supporters and donors. You build a
relationship by providing pertinent information to your
audience that they are not likely to get from other
sources.
Trust me - the fact that you need contributions
or that someone has endorsed you are not considered
"pertinent information"!!
Red
State New Media can develop, write and publish a
consistent email marketing program for your campaign or
organization that provides your audience with
interesting information and always offers an opportunity
to contribute and volunteer!
