Postal Strike: Refreshed Media Urges Firms to Look Beyond Email

Industrial action by striking postmen could be a vital e-marketing wake-up call for ambitious companies.

Bournemouth, Dorset (PRWEB) August 15, 2007 -- E-mail is an obvious solution to the postal strikes - one that should prompt firms to explore more efficient e-trading options to benefit their clients, cut costs and boost productivity.

E-marketing experts at Dorset-based Refreshed Media are urging companies to look beyond the threat posed by Royal Mail strike action to the huge opportunities offered online.

Companies should be making the most of the professional integrated, paperless and e-mail marketing solutions now available.

This has historically been missed by most companies. Too many people forget to allocate budget to bringing traffic to a website after they have built it

Our developers are highly expert at bespoke solutions. Websites can be developed for existing back-end systems or brand new systems.

Refreshed Media managing director Simon Melaniphy said: "Companies should be making the most of the professional integrated, paperless and e-mail marketing solutions now available."

In his experience, very few companies - large or small - made full use of these cost effective developments in e-mail and e-marketing technology, he added.

Companies can bypass the postal delays and expense through immediate email campaigns, and offer a more interactive and personalised experience, even synchronising with their existing Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software.

E-mail marketing played a vital role in helping companies to make best use of their websites: "This has historically been missed by most companies. Too many people forget to allocate budget to bringing traffic to a website after they have built it," added Mr Melaniphy.

"Our developers are highly expert at bespoke solutions. Websites can be developed for existing back-end systems or brand new systems."
