Marketing reports

Two marketing reports were reviewed today in other blogs.
Stefan Pollard writes at the Merkle report showing that recipients really will add a sender’s address to their address book, but that they are picky about which senders they do this for. His article also provides a number of suggestions for how to be a sender that is added to the address book.
Meanwhile, Matt Vernhout discusses the Retail Welcome Email Benchmark Study published by Smith Harmon. Unsurprisingly, the study found that welcome emails were very important to future deliverability.
Happy Friday!
