<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" title="cc_logo_trans_150x70" src="http://www.gripagency.com/handlebusiness-blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/cc_logo_trans_150x70.gif" alt="cc_logo_trans_150x70" width="150" height="70" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>What is Email Marketing?</strong></p>
<h2>It&#8217;s the easy, effective, and affordable way to keep your audience coming back!</h2>
<p>Email  marketing helps you <strong>keep customers and prospects coming back</strong>—by using attractive, professional-looking email communications to stay in regular touch with them and build strong customer relationships. It&#8217;s better and more effective than regular email.</p>
<ul>
<li>
<h3>Boost customer communication</h3>
<p>Email newsletters are fast and inexpensive to create. So you can send them more regularly than paper ones. And email marketing puts you in customers&#8217; in-boxes more accurately than regular email. So you&#8217;ll avoid spam filters and be <strong>seen by more people</strong>. And you&#8217;ll stay top of mind with people who want to hear from you.</li>
<li>
<h3>Talk to them with targeting</h3>
<p>Want to increase the impact of your email newsletters? Segment your database and create smaller customer lists based on their interests. Then send more <strong>relevant and targeted                 messages</strong> to them. They&#8217;ll be more likely to respond – and more likely to act on your emails.</li>
<li>
<h3>Get more referrals, more easily</h3>
<p>Email newsletters are <strong>easy to forward</strong> to other people. So your loyal customers can give their friends – new prospects for you – a risk-free peek at your business or organization. It&#8217;s easy for these prospects to sign up for your mailing list when you put our &#8220;Join My Mailing List&#8221; button on your web site. And through regular communication, you&#8217;ll turn those interested prospects into <strong>additional loyal customers</strong>.</li>
<li>
<h3>Get immediate response and action</h3>
<p>It&#8217;s quick to send emails, and it&#8217;s <strong>quick to see results</strong> with real-time reports. You can even schedule email delivery for when your audience is most likely to check email, so             you&#8217;ll increase the likelihood they&#8217;ll read it and take action.</li>
<li>
<h3>Track who reads and responds</h3>
<p>See who <strong>opened</strong> your emails, who <strong>forwarded</strong> them to friends, and even who you need to resend them to.  You can also tell who <strong>clicked</strong> on which links in your emails, allowing you to understand what people are interested in reading about, and tailor your content to get the best response and most business.</li>
<li>
<h3>Save on paper and postage</h3>
<p>Constant  Contact Email Marketing is affordable for any small business budget —  <strong>prices start as low as $15/month</strong>! You can send as many permission-based email newsletters as you want. It&#8217;s still the same low price. There&#8217;s nothing to print, no stamps to buy, no envelopes to stuff, and no paper cuts.</li>
</ul>
