DJ Waldow Talks about the Perfect Email

May 15 2009

DJ Waldow, Director of Best Practices and Deliverability at Bronto, spoke at OMS about the perfect email in a recession.  Read my tweets from DJ’s presentation:

  • @djwaldow starts his #oms presentation with his twitter police mug shot
  • Recession proof email marketing – adage did article on same topic
  • Relevancy is key. Batch and blast. Spray and pray.
  • Forrester said in 2008 that email marketers – only 15% – concerned about recession
  • Send timely, targeted, relevant emails to subscribers who ask for them
  • Perfect email is like the perfect meal. Timely. Relevant. Engaging.
  • @djwaldow – good example of sierra trading post email – but do they consciously make their email design less polished compared to rei
  • @djwaldow shares @returnpath email campaign example of doing all elements of email right – subject, call to action, reminders

    Say it, don’t spray it. People want to hear the news, not the weather.
