Hotmail Messes Up Your Links. If you're
a Hotmail user, you've probably had the experience of finding lots of dead links
in newsletters such as ours. We get complaints from people who say our newsletter
links don't work but our sources tell us it's likely some funny redirecting going
on in HotMail's system. If that's happening to you, whether you're on Hotmail

Note: |
InternetWorld
Last week I spent a few days at the big IW conference in L.A. Fairly sparse
crowds, the usual lines of people waiting for free tchockes, and sales
pitches & key notes masquerading as how-to sessions. Oh well, welcome
to the world of trade shows.
A lot of you seem
to be very interested in email marketing, so we suggest you start with
a good guide to available products. Click
here for one that's free and worth
checking out.
Change the way
you REALLY think about marketing. Learn from the faculty at Stanford,
and from true "best sellers" like David Aaker and Geoffrey Moore.
I'll be there, so be sure to say hello...I'm talking about the Stanford
Executive Program that's both fun and engaging. Click
here for the details.

How
Do I Love Thee? Building a B2B Relationship to Last a Lifetime
With the
current emphasis on Customer Relationship Management (CRM), it seems there's a
customer love-fest in the making. It's an orgy, almost: Every company wants a
close relationship with me, and they want one with you, too. They want close relationships
with their business buyers and suppliers.
Of course, as the name spells out, what they really want to do is "manage"
these close relationships.
If you want to
build a forever relationship with your customers, you need to first step back
from the rhetoric spewed by technologists to understand what a relationship is,
and isn't.

How important is
the brand in marketing, and to success in the marketplace? Very. Think about it,
people don't say they need an adhesive bandage, they say they need a Band-Aid*.
They don't ask for a tissue, they ask for a Kleenex*, they don't want a cola drink,
they want a Coke*.
To a non-profit
organization, the brand is perhaps the most important asset they have. Many corporations
actually carry the worth of the brand on their balance sheets; for example, the
Coca-Cola* brand is said to be worth $13 billion. However, non-profits are often
at a disadvantage when it comes to branding.
To find out what
non-profits need to know (and what for-profits can learn) about branding, read

Do
You Know Who's Killing Your Email Marketing?
Imagine you took a
trip to your post box down the road today to pick up the mail. To your surprise,
you find nothing. Not one sniveling post marked letter. All you see is just an
empty hole in the wall with zip in it. Annoyance would be the prime emotion here.
Maybe even a dollop of disappointment.
But what if you
found out that all that airy space exists simply because the post office has decided
to send all your mail back. Now that would get you in a bit of a boil, wouldn't
it? Frothing at the mouth, wouldn't you want to tear all those bespectacled post
office workers into little vulture sized meat bites?
And then what if
I told you that your email marketing business is going the same way?
More intriguing than an Agatha Christie mystery novel... Read
