Recently, several top brands have been including tall, self-contained promotional banners at the top of emails, claiming more real estate than what is usually allotted to preheaders, headers or navigation bars. For the past several years, creative best practices have called for primary messages in which all of the key points - and certainly the call to action - fall "above the fold" in an email preview pane, or above the point in which a subscriber would have to scroll down...

Role accounts make up a small percentage of every distribution list and are especially prevalent in the world of B2B. These are email addresses such as sales@, info@, etc., and were built for efficiency and functionality, definitely not one to one communications. With engagement playing such a heavy hand in reputation today, one to one communications are more essential than ever. New School Marketing is all about building relationships.

We've hit spam traps, and now we're blacklisted! Marketers first ask the question "How did we get spam traps on our list?" followed by "How do we remove these spam traps from our list?" Unfortunately spam traps don't make themselves known, and finding them in a list of thousands or millions of recipients is like trying to find a needle in a hay stack. Registering spam trap hits are generally an indicator of a greater systemic problem and not the problem itself. How Spam...

There’s a common temptation in the technology world to declare “going public” a victory. At Eloqua, we consider an IPO to be a mile marker, not a finish line.

Obviously, it’s a proud moment, and I want to warmly welcome the new shareholders that invest in our people,...
