Email Deliverability is one of the most important, but also one of the most overlooked and misunderstood aspects of email marketing. Just about all RFPs that go out in our industry contain multiple questions about deliverability. Marketers know that getting messages to the Inbox is critical to the overall success of their program.

As customers engage with different advertising channels, marketers have been searching for innovative ways to identity them and market to them in a more personal way. One challenge has been around the friction involved in obtaining a customer’s personal information and permission to contact them.

While nearly 70% of marketers want to orchestrate more consistent cross-channel experiences for their customers individually, they must balance that strategic priority against the need to drive specific conversion rates on their campaigns.

“I only live in the past and the future; my existence is solely devoted to a) thinking about what will happen next and b) thinking back to what’s happened before.” Chuck Klosterman, one of my favorite essayists, wrote the quotation above. It comes to mind whenever people say, “live in the moment.” As a motto, living in the moment fights human nature at its core. History tells us that our future will be riddled with surprises, whims, phases, excitement, boredom, delays,...

When I attend technology conferences, I get a chuckle when the presenter holds up a mobile phone and says: “These devices are changing everything.” That’s because mobile is so pervasive—doing nearly everything everywhere—that it’s become passé and cliché to make such statements. According to research from Nielsen, 87% of US smartphone and tablet owners are using their mobile devices for shopping and that consumers check their mobile devices 150 times a day. Mobile is big.
