Email Marketing and the Widget

You may wonder, what does a widget have to do with email marketing? Truthfully, when I first took the job at Blue Sky Factory my knowledge of a widget included the definition I knew from the Looney Tunes writers.

Most of you have noticed that we redesigned our Factory Direct newsletter drastically a few issues ago. While the general motivation for this was to refresh the overall look of Factory Direct, there is purpose behind the different elements of the design.

While what may work for Factory Direct may not necessarily work for you and your email campaigns, the general message is: don’t be afraid to think outside the email newsletter box! Take the step like we did and inject some personality into your newsletters, along with some elements of uniqueness. If all the positive feedback we’ve received from our readers is any indication, our Factory Direct redesign was a success.  Click here to read more about our re-design and how it could benefit your email marketing campaigns.
