In about an hour I will be heading down to Monterey to give a talk at the MessageSystems Insight 2015 conference.
I really wanted to go to the whole conference, as I’ve heard great things about previous ones. It just didn’t work with my schedule. I’ll be around this afternoon and tomorrow morning, though. So if you’re there, do drop by and say Hi!
If you’re not at Insight, but are interested in hearing me speak, you can join us on November 12 at the 2015 All About eMail Virtual Conference & Expo. Ken Magill will be interviewing me about email and delivery. The session is also very open to audience questions, so come with some of your own.
We’re looking for a new employee. Full job details are available on our career page.
I’m excited with how the company is growing and developing. I’m looking forward to seeing the candidates and what they can bring to us.
For those of you going to the APSIS Email Marketing Evolved conference next week, I hope you will stop by and introduce yourself. I’ll be presenting at the pre-conference and the keynote the day of the conference.
That does mean blogging will likely be light next week. But I always come back from conferences energized and full of ideas and things to write about.
Deliverability is a challenge, I think everyone who has ever tried to send bulk mail will acknowledge that. There are a lot of reasons for this. One of the big reasons is that there are bad players who spend a lot of time trying to get around filters. And a lot of these people are sending very bad mail. Phishing. Spear Phishing. Viruses. Malware.
Email is a prime vector for a lot of criminals.
A lot of deliverability discussions really gloss over the dangers, though. We don’t often think about it, because we’re not sending bad mail. But we still have to go through the same filters that ask: Is this message safe?
Security was a big deal at the recent Sparkpost / MessageSystems conference.
