The chances of a succceful leads in email marketing is less than one percent. I guess if you have more target email database than the result will be much more than one percent.

In a hectic internet world, it can be hard to remember to check all of your favorite sites and blogs daily, having that sort of information waiting for you in your inbox is a great marketing tool.

It seems that the key in email marketing today is the double-opt-in feat. The problem is, with so many junk mails coming into our inboxes, it's often hard to tell which ones are solicited and which are not (and yes - I receive also dozens of junk email in a day.) "Good emails" are often marked as junk emails by the software, and sifting through the sea of junks is a time consuming task. Many IM-er I know claim that email marketing still works, but I'm not sure if it's still as effective as before... Chris,

The fine line between spamming and keeping your "Present" customers up to date. It's one thing to send emails to customers or bloggers that signed up to receive mail as opposed to sending mass mailings to everyone. I run a large web hosting, Joomla Wordpress design and development firm. Plus run an online business. We send out thousands of emails per month to clients. I receive hundreds of emails per day, 90 percent of them are junk, spam. Don't open them, don't read them, actually set up Outlook to trash them. The point is, how effective can email campaigns really be? Most people I deal with all say the same thing, they delete before reading. Plus, a large amount of spam mail is full of scripts, that may be harmful. On a few occasions when I opened an email, went to the site, my computer was taken hold of, couldn't back out, do anything. My Norton software kicks in and says "an attempt to blah? my computer was terminated. Its not worth the security risk. I my final opinion, email campaigns are mostly finished...Excellent site will bookmark and return often. Difficult topic.

I agree with you on the fact that email marketing will still remain alive in spite of the spammers and the next big e-revolution, for the simple fact that it is more handy and time-tested to reach the target audience.
