But people’s mailboxes are increasingly over-crowded and marketers can no longer expect that just because they managed to get an email into the inbox of an intended recipient, that it will be read, let alone responded to. Marketers are turning to personalised direct marketing.
Marketing brands can be a very expensive exercise and often, in traditional media, very difficult to track and value.
