Email / Newsletter Sponsorship
|
|
Email Marketing is
a great way to reach your target audience. We can offer you the opportunity to
reach our member base of subscribers. Members can sign up for
either the Monthly or Weekly newsletter or both. Your message or special
offer can be sent directly to our members who have "requested" to
receive information about travel to the Caribbean. This is a custom
message featuring just your company.
Your message or
special offer can be in HTML with 1-2 paragraphs in length and you may
also include a logo or photo with your message (A text version is sent to
those who request a text version). Results of email
marketing are quite effective. Historically you can expect to receive
about a 10-15% response rate. That means 10-15% of the people who receive the
email newsletter will visit your website (usually within 1 week). Click
here to view our "email marketing" ROI tool. This tool will allow
you to enter additional information that will help you calculate your Return on
Investment.
Rates: $0.10/email
Currently, advertisers only have the option of sending a message to the entire
member base. The total cost of a newsletter sponsorship varies each month
with the total number of members in the system.
EXAMPLE:
Member Base: 7,500 members
Sample Cost: 7,500 x $0.10 = $750
Member Base: 10,000 members
Sample Cost: 10,000 x $0.10 = $1,000
