This freshly released email marketing benchmark report for 2009 comes as highly recommend reading for marketers, advertisers and publishers alike who use email marketing is a part of their digital strategy.

Produced by Australian firm Returnity it’s based on data from nearly 100 million emails, 12,000 campaigns, 450 clients and 18 industry segments – they’ve certainly done their research.

Here at Catch we design/manage/send tens of thousands of emails a month for clients including AXA, Crest Nicholson, Executive Offices Group, JLA and Lucida PLC. We’ve promoted everything from the Chemical Brothers playing in Trafalgar Square for Beck’s Futures to “Dancing Pig” John Sergeant’s speaker engagements post-Strictly Come Dancing.

If you are interested in talking more about how we can put our experience in email marketing to work for your business then give me a call on 0207 494 3554 or email me at jonathan@catchdigital.com.

Catch regularly designs and builds websites for a range of corporate clients including pension’s insurance company Lucida PLC, Hymans Robertson (for which one of our sites won Johnston Press a Professional Pensions Award) and business intelligence boutique Billiter Partners (for which we have recently rolled out a first-of-its-kind transactional due diligence reporting website).

We’ve recently being building and managing email sends for AXA’s Corporate Partnership Team.

These sends support a microsite we developed aimed at corporate advisers, specialist investment-only businesses and trustees, www.axacorporatepartnership.com.

Always nice to get a bit of recognition from people you respect. Somehow one of our email templates for Ferrier Pearce got into Campaign Monitors “best designs” gallery.
