This past week, I focused on eMail – how they are optimized and how subscribers are interacting with brands. This is the one area of eCRM that I really love. With eMail you still have one of the best ROI’s of any eCRM program, plus with data, you can really begin to give a very personalized experience.

Data and analytics should be something that you look at frequently. You can then optimize the emails for YOUR customers and then develop the programs based on the data that you have to really create a unique customer experience.
