Email Marketing Tools That Are Easier to Use
Jeanette Borzo, The Wall Street Journal's Startup Journal,
March 23,
2007
As I read this article I got very excited. I'm a big fan of Email
Service Providers (ESPs); it just always seems like there are issues
when I try to work with a client that uses an in-house system. But
maybe that's all changing. The WSJ reports that these new software
programs integrate with existing databases and provide basic Web
analytics -- and there's a review of 5 of these new wonders. If
you're in the market for an in-house solution (or having issues with
your ESP), this article is worth reading!

The Content Marketing Manifesto
Larry Chase, Web Digest for Marketers, March 2007
Leave it to Larry -- this is one of the best resources I've seen
regarding online content. He discusses email content by name here and
there, but just about everything he says applies to email, Websites
and any other online presence. Best of all -- it's free. If you're
providing content online, be it for sales, editorial or other
reasons, this will give you some fresh ideas and practical advice to
improve it.

Email Deliverability Checklist
Lyris, February 2007
There's a debate raging about which is more important --
deliverabilty (getting to the inbox) or rendering (having your images
and links arrive intact). My take: both are equally critical to your
email marketing success.
Here's a good white paper on deliverability; it not only tells
you what to do ("Publish an SPF Record") but how to do it, with
simple instructions and links to additional resources to help.
