E-mail Campaign

Hey guys, I'm new here, but everybody seems like a smart bunch.

I have a large active client list that I want to e-mail a list of our fall specials, what programs/services do you use to do mass mailing?

I'm leaning towards Constant Contact, but I was wondering if anybody could recommend anything better?

Thanks in advanced

 

How big is your list?

 

We have a 100,000 e-mails (people who agreed to be contacted by us), but we'll probably start out with only 10,000 e-mail test runs for our creatives.

 

I've been using email Labs for about 4 years and I'm extremely satisfied.

They can be a bit expensive, so be sure to squeeze the sales rep for the best deal possible.

Why not just create a Mailing list in cPanel and use that?

 

I use List messenger

It's great!

 

whohw.. thats a nice huge list!

With a list like that you should get a professional solution, its worth it.. email Labs has a good rep.

 

I would also go with a professional solution. If you're going for repeat hits, you need something respectable that doesn't look like spam. I would do a test with 5000 though. Just to be on the safe side.

 

If I were you I'd go with even less than that - you might want to write 3 different versions of whatever you're sending out, send them out to 1 or 2 thousand emails each, and monitor which one gets the best response. Then send that one out to the rest of your list.

Hi there are many good mailers on the net, we have used emailbrain for high volume

I think we have used emailbrain now for over 2 years and the results are good

 

I use StreamSend.com. Pretty decent pricing and good reporting on views, click-throughs, etc.

For 100K e-mails/month it costs $79.95/month.

Good luck!
