INTERACTIVE E-MAILS & E-BLAST

This time we won’t speak about the latest news in CM; in this post we’ll speak about our new products: E-MAIL, E-BLAST and V-BLAST.


Most of you probably think we’re all about making top-quality corporate films and animations. Of course we are, but there’s more to us than just that… In this post we’ll cover the interactive e-mails and e-blast feature.

E-mails are a great way to make closer contact with customers. It doesn’t rely on your customer remembering to visit your site, or seeing a print advertisement. You can personalise emails to suit the particular interests of that customer, instead of sending a generic brochure. Also, it’s a great way to get the film you have spent time and money making in front of the right people.
We don’t just design and prepare these e-mails – we can also send them out for you.

One of the frustrations with many marketing activities is that it can be very hard to tell what is working, and what is just costing money. When you conduct e-mail marketing with a system like ours, however, you can see very quickly what is working and what is not. An e-mailer is completely measurable, cost effective and immediate.

The benefits of outsourcing your e-mail delivery are:

- Easily measure the success of your campaigns: if you know who opened your e-mails, what they clicked on, who bounced and who unsubscribed, you can start to understand who your audience really is, and what they are interested in.

- Save time:  you can subscribe and unsubscribe request, deal with bounced e-mails and spam complaints, and avoid hold ups on your own mail servers. Also the link activity reports makes it so easy to see what your subscribers found most interesting as well as who clicked and who did not.

- Secure, reliable and supported: With biometric security, uninterruptible power supplies and environmental control units, our physical security and reliability is state of the art.

- Focus on your customers, not your technology: in some cases, you can use your own e-mail client or some other in-house tool to add subscribers and deal with unsubscribe requests and bounces from bad e-mails all day…

To many people the term “e-mail marketing” automatically conjures images of e-mails intent on one thing – selling. In actual fact, there are number of types of e-mail communications you can use which are not directly sales related but can certainly contribute to their bottom line in other ways. 


There are different types of e-mails…

VIDEO E-BLAST: Making films for our clients is really only half the story. A film is no good if no one knows it’s there. At Constellation Media we are committed to helping our clients get their film out to the people who need to see it. After all that’s what we made it for! A video e-blast is a great way of doing just that in an engaging and exciting way.

Quick Announcements, often called postcard emails – these are simple…

E-MAIL NEWSLETTERS: The primary intent of an e-mail newsletter is to further develop and nurture the relationship you already have with your customers.

CATALOGUE E-MAILS: A catalogue based e-mail is fairly self explanatory, being an electronic version of a print brochure listing particular products, with the primary goal to encourage customers to purchase.

PRESS RELEASES: If you have a list of media contacts that have given you permission to contact them, e-mail press releases can be a great way to attract news coverage.

So we’re not just another one-trick pony!

That’s all for now.
