E-Mail Is A Big Factor In Travel Recovery
from the email-marketing-works? dept
With all the talk of how spam is destroying the value of any "legitimate" email marketing plans, there's one industry that has discovered that email marketing might actually work. It turns out that frequent travelers actually welcome emails telling them about travel deals. So, now, as travel-related companies around the world are struggling, they're starting to look at email marketing as a potential savior. While I do agree that emails about travel deals still do get some of my attention (I probably read about 25% of them), they still need to be carefully done to avoid oversaturating the people who are constantly looking for travel deals.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
