Email Marketing Tips Blog

The latest report from the GetResponse Analytics team has provided some great insights into the growing popularity of GetResponse Email Marketing around the world…and a few surprises!

Although North America is still leading with just over 50% of our customer market, some interesting growth is happening in other areas of the globe that could change things up a bit.

For example, Asia has surpassed Europe and now comprises 25% of our Email Marketing base, increasing the gap over Europe to 6% in 2009. Within Asia, the most significant expansion has come from India, which now boasts more Email Marketing activity than the UK. Perhaps this is no surprise as the world’s second most populated country?

We’re happy to report that both Oceania and Africa are entering the GetResponse Email Marketing arena at a good clip and we expect to see steady increases in their activity in the coming months.

We really love sharing the latest news and feature updates with all of you − especially if it helps you market faster and smarter. Speaking of speed, we designed GetResponse to be as sleek as a Maserati and just as fast. Truthfully, our programmers say it’s only a bit slower than the speed of light.

Kidding aside, we enhanced 100s of existing features and added some amazing power features for 6.0, and we’ve been working just as hard to introduce our Super-Fast GetResponse.  Now creating, editing  and sending your messages will be easier, faster, and MUCH more efficient.

Check out the screen below to see GetResponse “before and after” speeds. This was measured and captured by some very serious technical types here, so this is no joke! See for yourself…

Log in to your GetResponse account and take it out for a test drive if you’re not already “experienced” at these speeds. We told you…GetResponse just keeps getting better!

Let’s get right to the “meat” of this topic and that’s ideas for newsletter content. We know you’re probably using surveys, web forms, contests and analytics to gather valuable information, so you already have topics and categories of interest to your audiences. Excellent! But how do you present it in ways that will keep them opening, reading and acting on your email messages? Variety is key!

If you sent out an email message from GetResponse in the last day or so, you probably noticed the new Twitter message box. Perhaps you used it already? It appears when you’ve created your message and you’re ready to set your delivery date.

Like all GetResponse social media tools, Twitter Share is as easy to use as the Twitter website. All you need to do is enter your Twitter login, password and the special message you want to post on your Twitter account. Check “Share on Twitter” and you’re done! Piece of cake!

Now everyone who follows your Twitter account can read your GetResponse messages.  They just click on the link in your Twitter account and they’ll see the GetResponse message archived on the GetResponse website.  And there’s no limit to your Twitter messages, so don’t forget to check “share” every time!

Now you can expand your audience to Tweeters everywhere as easy as 1-2-3. Ask them to pass your message along to get even more viral marketing buzz!

Update your follow-up messages in seconds!Time is money when you’re running a business, so we’ve created a time-saving enhancement for managing your autoresponders.  Now you can edit your interval days directly from the “Manage Follow-up Messages” screen.  Just select the interval day you’d like to change and click on “Change Intvals”.  You’re done in seconds!

We’re going to focus on content for a post or 2, as many of you have been sharing your frustration with that torture rack we call the “e-newsletter”.  Not because it’s difficult to do with GetResponse, but because you’re running out of fresh ideas. Or maybe you’re sending them out too often?

GetResponse Email Marketing has just sent its 500-Millionth Email since the launch of 6.0! The sender had no clue of course, so we surprised the lucky customer with an exclusive GetResponse gift!

The 500-millionth email was sent from Asia, providing further evidence that marketers from this huge continent are becoming more aware of the benefits of email marketing.  In fact, next to the US, Asia is now the second most active region in terms of site visits to GetResponse.com! Considering it’s home to 60% of the world’s population, Asia could explode our email stats!

We’re happy to report that GetResponse is experiencing strong growth across all regions and markets. While we attribute this to our reliable, affordable and easy-to-use features, there’s no doubt that more and more marketers are turning to email as a proven driver of high ROI.

Isn’t it great to be ahead of the curve?!
