|
|
Does anyone have any experience with mass mailing programs? I have a list of about 600 contacts that I like to email about once a week. I'd like to have something that is integrated with Outlook, so the messages are addressed personally to the recipient. Right now, I have to send BCC, and be generic with salutations.
Is there anything out there like this?
Thanks... |

I agree. I know you get millions of emails. I do get a pretty decent response out of them though. Especially if I'm running a pricing promo, or update my rates or guides. I don't expect all 800 contacts to respond. Even if I get 1 person interested, I think that's worth it. I usually exclude the brokers that I do business with regularly, because I have a good enough relationship where they already know what I'm sending.
As a broker, what do you like to see in emails? |

I have 2 million mortgage brokers and 2 million real estate agents. I own a couple of websites.
Been internet marketing for over 6 years and know all of the leading email marketing companies along with spam laws, systems to use and email marketing for dummies 101
Mass emailing WORKS.
I sent an ad for a commercial lender to 600,000 real estate agents - he got 2,000 email replies. It rocks!

I agree, email marketing does work in most cases if you are targeting to businesses. I've been doing email marketing for over 4 years and own my own email marketing company now, but when I was an AE for a subprime lender, I used to get too many responses sitting in my email inbox just by blasting to 8,000 emails.
It's tuffer now with all the major ISP Filter, Blacklisting Risk, Spam Compliance...etc. But I still market for my clients to 400,000 Mortgage Professionals from my Opt In Email Data now, their opening rate is in the average of 15 - 22 % when they use our premium server and our relationship with ISP.
If you email from outlook to 600 emails, you may want to spread it out in sending patches of no more than 200 emails per hour, and per day to be safe, so you won't get blacklisted and get the highest delivery rate, because 90% of the emails sent globally are blocked. |

| As long as the lender/net branch provider or whoever is doing the email campaign has a good promotion or program, then people will respond. |

| email marketing is effective but you have to be really and I mean REALLY careful with the can-spam act laws. If you're buying a list from someone always ask for IP stamps as well as dates in order to verify that they are opt-in. Furthermore it's very difficult to even have a successful deliver rate due to the tight spam filters that all the major email providers (yahoo, hotmail, aol, gmail, etc..) have set. It's really about finding the right company to work with when it comes to mailing. Having a quality list and a company that can successfully deliver the emails are the two major parts. |

Technically if you "Buy" an email list then its against the Cam-Spam law. There are some opt-in companies that send the messages for you for $.xx per email to their opt-in list.
If you have the list your self and you know its opt-in check out this free application (Link deleted) it tracks who opened the emails who clicked on links etc..
Its pretty easy to install, if you need someone to do it, I'm sure you can find a local web designer in your state to do it for like $50. |
