—Susan Wilson Solovic, CEO, SBTV.com—Small Business Television
"Marketing your business without understanding the concepts here would be like driving in Boston for the first time without GPS—lots of wasted time (and possibly tears). If you want a great return on your email marketing investment, start by reading this book."
—Michael Katz, founder and Chief Penguin, Blue Penguin Development
"We have been using the concepts in this book for the past five years, and they have radically changed how we market our business. Not only have we saved tens of thousands of dollars in postage alone (sorry USPS), but we also generate significant sales every time we send a campaign. This is one book I hope my competition doesn't read!"
—Ken Giddon, President, Rothman's NY

In the long run, this training means Constant Contact is more of a mentor than a vendor. And it makes all the difference in the world."
