Email advertising is an economical solution with an ability to (swiftly and without any fuss) reach mass in a place most of them visit on daily basis – their INBOX. According to recent research by McKinsey (2015), ‘More than 200 million emails are sent out every minute of the day’ which clearly shows that email marketing is definitely a tool that is used heavily among customers and brands.

Unlike other annoying and encroaching marketing modes, Email campaign is effective because it allows businesses to offer appropriate and insightful content to people who have wittingly subscribed and are eager to get in touch with the brand.
