5.0 out of 5 stars A great book that will teach you how to email effectively, December 16, 2008

By	D. Hendricks "Dave" (NYC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Jeanniey Mullen and Dave Daniels have written an easy to read, accessible and rewarding guide to email marketing that will appeal to both the novice and the trained professional. As a experienced email marketer, I found this to be a interesting read and even with more than a decade of experience I learned something new on almost every page.

This book spells out how to develop and execute your email marketing campaigns more effectively than any other book on the market today. It draws from the authors' deep experience as practitioners and analysts, as well as their experience as vendors and customers. In short, they have the perspective from their experience that benefits all types of readers. Those new to email marketing will get the boot camp they need; those with more experience will find new tactics and information that will freshen their approaches.

If you want to learn about email marketing - or learn more about how to be more effective - I recommend this book highly.
