Hi , sick of winter yet? Why not bury your head in some e-marketing reading material. Spring can't be far away. And while you are reading this issue, put some thought into how you would make it better. Your thoughts could win you a groovy Xiro MP3/Voice Recoreder/USB Drive. We discovered these at CeBit earlier this year. They were a huge hit and coming soon to a store near you. But be the first on your block with one - take our one minute survey. If you have any questions on how you can get more out of e-marketing, be sure to e-mail me. I really do want to hear from you.
Regards Paul Hodgson

Online Surveys - Remarkable ROI
Electronic surveys are surging in popularity. The ease with which participants can respond means that on average response rates more than treble when conducted electronically. Damien Reddrop of the Australian Human Resources Institute reported that the response rate of 60% to a recent post conference survey provided an unprecedented level of feedback. "The result was amazing. We have also had a considerable increase in response rates from our other surveys since we started conducting them electronically. At least a 20% overall improvement." said Damien

Newsletters in the Firing Line
Is the corporate Newsletter in danger?
The Corporate or Association newsletter is in the firing line. With a volume of information to share, an expanding database of contacts and a need for measurable returns, the printed newsletter now has competition from e-mail and web delivered news. Recently I had the opportunity to assist Sydney-based marketing communications consultants, Bevington and Bevington, compile a comparative report for a major Corporate considering just such a move. The company's objectives were to use an electronic newsletter for their smaller to medium sized clients, but deliver a printed brochure-style newsletter to their larger clients. Attracted by the measurability of e-mail but needing a rational justification, the company asked Bevington & Bevington (B&B) to compile this report. Since I know many of you are considering just this type of move, David Daffey (Business Development Manager for B&B) has given permission to share their results. (name of the company of course withheld)
