Easilly create web registration forms that make use of your custom fields. Brand yours with logos and images and choose your own background colours. They offer an easy way to build customer lists as they make use of information gained through newsletter registration, on contact us or enquiry pages.

Track which emails have been sent and what activity has taken place for each campaign.

Each of your campaigns can include a ‘profile update’ function, allowing your database of contacts to update their personal profiles. You can even hide specific information that is for company use only (for example, profiling a customer as a VIP). Statistical reports allow you to see profile update activity per campaign. This also offers a way to begin profiling your database if you only have an email address to start with.

Increase your campaign response by inserting a ‘send to a friend’ link. It allows your recipients to send your email to friends who might also be interested. You can link your web registration forms within emails allowing new recipients to quickly and easily register for newsletters or enquire about your products and services.

Search functions allow you to send to your entire database, to new subscribers only or subscribers who haven't yet received certain information. You can also send to customers based on profiles, such as all customers who purchased within a month or to all double opt in recipients only.
