    Facebook messages and e-mail campaigns

    June 25th, 2011 | Articles | Luiz A D R Marques | Comments Off

    Mailchimp has posted an article about Facebook’s e-mail and the consequences for e-mail newsletters. An interesting part of the article is the fact that changing your reply-to address can get you cut off from access to an user. Overall, seems pretty simple and I’m not impressed by the fact that Facebook only opens HTML e-mails [...]

    Social Network and e-mail click rates

    According to some research, looks like the subscribers of an e-mail list lose interest after a while (4 months). Mailchimp posted an interesting article showing that adding social features to your e-mail can get you better clickthrough (CTR) rates over time. Of course, I can’t complain either way, as I got great CTR rates on [...]

    Text-to-speech on e-mail newsletters

    April 22nd, 2010 | Site Reviews | Luiz A D R Marques | Comments Off

    I’m looking into changing my e-mail newsletter from PHPList – which is pretty good for a free tool, but obviously lack features compared to pricy ESPs (e-mail service providers), and deliverability is of course smaller, as the ESPs spend a lot of time tuning theirs.
