Forge3 email blast : behind the scenes

Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at how we sent the recent blast email telling people about the new Forge3 website.

The first part of the video is stuff that we typically do for clients, and the second half shows some of the powerful reporting that’s available to monitor response and overall effectiveness.

Here’s the bottom line…

If you want to send a blast email to a large number of recipients, you should not use your regular email program (like Outlook or otherwise). Rather, you’ll want to use a system designed to handle the mailing – like the one shown in the video.

As always, I welcome your thoughts or questions.
