January 30, 2008; 06:48 AM Emailcenter have launched ‘Maxemail Content Generator’, the email marketing
industry’s first solution for assisting email marketers with generating relevant
content for their email campaigns.
“Research shows that email campaigns
with personalised and relevant content achieve conversion rates as much as 5
times higher than messages with no content personalisation. However this
requires lots of time consuming content generation which is just not practical
due to the level of resources available to your average marketing department,”
said Nigel Williams, MD of UK email service provider Emailcenter.
“We
have developed a solution called ‘Maxemail Content Generator’ that takes a
clients existing RSS feeds, XML product data or website content and enables them
to quickly publish this either as a single email or a series of dynamically
personalised emails,” adds Nigel.
“This would normally take a marketer a
couple of days to achieve this but our generator can now entirely automate this
or at worst case take just a few minutes to set-up.”
toptable.co.uk, the
UK restaurant booking site are one of the first clients to see the benefits of
this tool. Traditionally toptable newsletters have focussed on the London region
despite having special offers throughout the UK. The content generator has
enabled them to automatically insert offers, reviews and other relevant
information based upon each customer’s home or work postcode. The content
generator automatically builds around 3,000 blocks of content for each email by
utilising the existing toptable RSS feeds, something that would never be
feasible manually. The Maxemail dynamic content engine then drops in the
relevant content blocks for each recipient. Results from initial sends show that
conversion rates for some locations have increased more than 3 fold.
Other users include Simply TV, the Internet TV company who use the
wizard interface to choose which news items from their websites should be
included in their different newsletters. Each item chosen is then automatically
formatted and inserted into their HTML and text templates saving several hours
in production time every week.
The generator has been designed to allow
custom rules for each organisation for ultimate flexibility and can be utilised
on a manual basis or set-up to run on a scheduled basis to ensure the very
latest content is delivered within every email campaign.
