Keynote Address: The E-mail of the Future: Out of the Inbox & Into Your Hands
E-mail has proven itself, time and time again, a cost-effective and responsive direct marketing channel. In recent years, e-mail's effectiveness as a branding vehicle and event promotion tool has also been justified. But marketer beware! The 1-to-1 tactic you love to embed in all your campaigns is assuming a new direction. Most marketers aren't ready. Are you?
In a Web 2.0 world, e-mail means much more than sending a marketing message to your prospect or customer's inbox. An e-mail is the lifeline your customers use to register and message on a number of sites about your product and your brand. None of this resides in the traditional "inbox."
Find out why, and how e-mail's role is changing. More important, learn what you can do about it.
