Spam Emails Can Be Convincing

I subscribe to a lot of email marketing lists, which means I receive a higher than average amount of spam.

Balance Loyalty Generated Against ROI

The heading on a just published magazine, ‘How to Save Money Now!’ was identical to the Subject Line of a newsletter that dropped into my inbox. It’s as if they are trying to tell me something.

How Can You Show Your Reviews Are Genuine?

We’ve recently carried a blog on fake reviews, https://wizemail.co.uk/how-to-use-fake-reviews-to-your-benefit, with advice on how to use them to your benefit.

Use Landing Page Procedures

I recently failed to buy an item because of the frustrating post click-through procedure of a company whose email marketing list I am subscribed to. It’s not as bad as it might first of all appear. I went back to the buying page a day or two later once I had got my act together. … READ MORE »

Using Newsletters To Generate Leads

I’ve taken time away from researching email marketing and have been concentrating on newsletters. I mostly subscribe to those from email marketing companies, but I’ve also included those for my hobbies and local interest. In normal circumstances I open around 70% of them, and have built up quite a knowledge of what makes the difference … READ MORE »

Competing With Companies With Big Data

Four or five years ago, before Covid, I read a book called Man v Big Data. It wasn’t clear who won. The thought that went through my mind was ‘If only I had their problems’.
