Other forms of advertising, such as direct mail and print, simply can't compete in delivering this type of valuable marketing data. Unlike print campaigns, which can take weeks and even months to run, or postal mail that takes days to deliver, an e-mail marketing campaign can generate immediate, same-day results.

The Company just went public yesterday and we thought that we should have a focus on this interesting email marketing solution.
