Multi-channel Marketing that includes e-mail works!

2013-04-03 email last call STATSWe’re compiling date from our marketing efforts to drive attendance to an industry association annual conference held in April.  The campaign included direct mail, e-mail, social media and networking.  The first group of data we are gathering is the e-mail returns.  This e-mail was sent 60-days prior to the event and focused on the golf tournament and offered links to the other aspects of the conference.  We achieved a 27.3% Open Rate, 16.3% click rate, 0.4% opt out and registered 6 people within 24-hours of it being sent.

That’s success!

Plans to add a digital press in the first quarter, expansion and upgrade of our 15,000 sq ft facility and enhancing direct mail with social media and online interaction were hot topics.  The year’s summit was very informative and we look forward to the coming year as we find better ways to serve our clients by planning for the future.
