Email Marketing Tips Blog

About three months ago, we were trying to convince you that confirmed opt-in option is much more effective than the unconfirmed opt-in when adding qualified subscribers to your lists. We gave you several important reasons to validate our point of view.

If the last blog post didn’t convince you, we hope the results of our latest analysis will help you understand how well confirmed opt-in works for real-life GetResponse customers, and put all serious arguments to rest.

Now, onto the study: we analyzed over 700M messages sent from GetResponse Pro accounts between August 1st and November 1st 2009, and compared certain “success” factors for confirmed opt-in and unconfirmed opt-in users. We thought we’d find improvements with confirmed opt-in, but the results amazed even us!

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!

Building your prospect list with high-quality opt-in leads from GetSubscribers is a great way to grow your business! But we know how busy you are, so the GetResponse Team invented another feature to help you track and manage your list faster and more efficiently. After all, minutes count when you’re competing for customers!  Now you’ll actually be able to view every new GetSubscribers lead in a frame right on your dashboard! Sending out a campaign, offer or newsletter in the next few minutes? You just increased your audience − without lifting a finger!

We hope the new GetSubscribers update feature saves you time and “guesswork” so you can focus on your campaigns.  The GetResponse Team is working hard to help you succeed every day, so stay tuned for more new developments.

At GetResponse, we love developing new tools and making existing features better/faster/easier for you! Well, we think you’re really going to like this “upgrade” to a very important messaging tool. So login to your GetResponse account and take the newly optimized Editor for a test drive.  It’s been streamlined and improved so creating messages in GetResponse will be much more efficient and enjoyable.

It features: brand new user-friendly icons to help both new and experienced users navigate quickly and efficiently, saving some time and stress. They are self-explanatory and communicate clearly what each icon represents and what it can do for your message. But these cool icons aren’t the only things we’ve changed in the GetResponse Editor. We’ve significantly improved the speed and removed all the little “speed bumps” that you told us slowed you down in the last version.

Our mission is to help you create better campaigns every time, and we sincerely hope this helps.
