Direct Marketing

Direct Marketing via email

Description

Direct marketing messages are sent by e-mail to the exclusive AME Info database of currently 100,000+ individuals from the Middle East.

The database is opt-in only and cleaned for bounces on a regular basis via the weekly newsletter and hence the open-rate is relatively high. The list was established in 2001 and has been receiving weekly updates since. The my AME Info database is updated on a regular basis by sending reminder messages and by centralised user profiles and subscriptions.

Direct Marketing messages are purchased in batches of thousand (CPM) addresses, the minimum order is 5,000 and orders should be booked at least two weeks in advance.

Notes
All messages are sent from AME Info (no forged addresses) and each message will carry a clear disclaimer stating who the sender is and how to be removed from future messages.

Data Reported
Open rate & click-through. Javascripts and Rich Media are not acceptable, therefore third party tracking can potentially be unreliable.
