Customer Reviews

Email Marketing for the small biz
The Complete Guide to Email Marketing is exactly what its title states: a complete reference guide for those looking to use email marketing. Written with the small business owner in mind, this book provides all of the tools necessary to plan, test and implement a successful email marketing campaign while avoiding spam filters and offending potential customers.

The Complete Guide to Email Marketing offers a broad introduction to email marketing while remaining comprehensive. It runs through the basic components of an email campaign, shares the types of businesses email marketing will NOT work for (Very Helpful!) and prepares the reader for what is required to create and maintain an effective email address database. Of special note is the information devoted to Search Engine Optimization (SEO). SEO has become such a buzz word among web developers and site managers that it was refreshing to have the basic techniques and requirements explained in clear language.

The only downside to this book is its sheer size. For the busy small business owner, forced to wear a myriad of hats on a daily basis, this book may have too much information. While the background information is a helpful and extensive resource, it may overwhelm a reader just looking for the tools to run a successful and legal email campaign.

On the whole, The Complete Guide to Email Marketing is an essential resource for anyone doing business online. Though it requires a little work, a successful email campaign can be the keystone of business growth.

The Complete Guide to Email Marketing
I am working to set up an email marketing program for our company. This book really gives a very complete, step-by-step plan for creating an email program. I have read a few books on email, and this is the most complete and detaailed and understaandable explaination of how to do it.
This is the best book on the subject.

Business before pleasure
As a loyal fan of Internet related business, I was expecting from this book too much. And once again, I was put back on the ground by the strict order of the book and its complete worldliness. Moreover, it looks rather Spartan. However, the book is by no means simple. On the contrary, compared to other web-based businesses e-mail marketing seems a more difficult area to succeed.
I'd rather say that the target audience/customers of this issue are people, who have already had their web-based business and long to start another one. And in this respect, the book is very good! Usually, businessmen think they know everything about their trade, especially if they prosper. But when they want to expand the business, they face many problems. And one of the ways to solve them is to read the book.
Nicely structured, not a guide but a real encyclopedia of e-mail marketing with wonderful case studies, history retrospective and loads of useful links.
Definitely, this book is written by a professional and information here is not "phishing"!
