Before sending out your Email marketing Campaign, make sure use spam assassin to rank your Email on a score to determine how likely it is that it will be regarded as spam. The higher the number is, the more likely it is that your Email will be marked as spam. One thing we have become aware of is people putting unnecessary punctuation marks in their Emails. Try not to put any hyphens in your Email header, and never place them in the middle of a word. This is a sure-fire way to get your Email marked as spam.

Additional Features
The other day, we added an “Additional Features” page to the website. We decided it would be a good idea to expand on the Features page so you could get more of an idea of the type of services we offer at Velocity. Also, the Site-Map is a constantly growing resource for the types of terms and phrases you may encounter when working with Email marketing.
Check out the Addition Features page here:

Conversion
Another week is ending here at Velocity so it is time for another casual term that you can use to impress your Email marketing friends.
This week’s term is “Conversion”.
A conversion is when your Email advertisement is received and a recipient performs the desired action. This may include clicking a link, subscribing to your email, or filling out some type of form.
Come back next Friday for another term.

Using HTML Email
After you have selected the HTML template you want to use, just start filling it out.
Once you finish filling out your email message, you can then send a test email to yourself to see how it looks.
This is how mine turned out:

Casual-Term Friday
It is the end of the week here at Velocity so I decided it would be interesting to start a weekly feature.
This week’s term is “Email Blast”.
An Email Blast is when you send an email to a large list of people. This is usually an Email Marketing Campaign. It is important that you only send Email Blasts to people that have opted in to receive your Emails.
Have a great weekend and come back next Friday for another Email Marketing Term!

Getting Your Company Recognized
The easiest way to get your company recognized in today’s fast paced world is through Email Marketing.
Here are some problems with using print ads:
- Cost. The cost alone is enough incentive for small business, in particular, to shy away from using print ads.
- Time. With so much needed to be done in any given day, it seems unnecessary to spend so much time on Print-ads that won’t be seen as many potential clients.
- Public awareness. With email marketing, you will be able to reach a much larger audience than can be found with traditional print ads.
- Reliability. While there are definitely some benefits to using print ads, there is simply know way of telling how successful your advertisement campaign is. Velocity Marketing Software has a built in tracking system which will allow for you to see results immediately.
Overall, Email marketing is more cost-effective, less time consuming, reliable, and more profitable than traditional print-ads. Velocity Marketing Software makes the entire process much easier as well.
