StrongMail, a leading provider of online marketing solutions for email and social media, today announced the latest version of StrongMail Message Studio with new and enhanced features for automating the optimisation of email campaigns and expanding reach to new audiences.  StrongMail Message Studio enables email marketers at medium-to-large enterprises to easily create, optimise, manage and analyse highly targeted email campaigns.

StrongMail Enhances Message Studio with Automated Campaign Capabilities

One of the key new Message Studio features is Campaign Optimizer, a powerful tool that leverages multi-variate testing to automatically optimise campaigns in real-time.  Using Campaign Optimiser, marketers can launch campaigns that test multiple variations of content at one time, automatically determine the best-performing content based on pre-determined criteria, and optimise the remainder of the campaign to use the winning combination.

Additionally, Message Studio now includes StrongMail Influencer, a proven viral marketing solution that lets consumers share offers and information with their social networks via an engaging and interactive experience.  StrongMail Influencer enables marketers to track multi-stage sharing behavior across email, Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, blogs and other types of social media to identify the biggest brand advocates within their database. This new integration provides Message Studio users with powerful data to create target segments for future email marketing campaigns.

In addition to numerous reporting and usability improvements, Message Studio now features enhanced Social Notes social sharing and Forward-to-a-Friend (FTAF) features that make it even easier for recipients to share email campaigns with their social networks.  Instead of requiring recipients to type in their friends' email addresses, both FTAF and Social Notes allow them to access their online address books, which studies show dramatically increases sharing activity. Marketers can also now add social sharing and FTAF links to email campaigns with one click from within Message Studio and track in-depth sharing activity alongside other key email metrics.

StrongMail Message Studio Key Features and Enhancements
 Campaign Optimizer – Automatically optimise campaigns in real-time with a powerful new tool that performs multi-variate testing and deploys the winning combination based on pre-determined success criteria.

• StrongMail Influencer – Expand campaign reach with StrongMail Influencer, which now comes bundled and integrated with Message Studio.  Quickly identify and motivate key brand influencers to share via social networks, while tracking results for future re-marketing efforts.

• Enhanced Sharing Capabilities – Add social sharing and Forward-to-a-Friend capabilities to email campaigns with one click and track performance from within Message Studio, plus increase sharing activity by enabling recipients to directly access their web-based email accounts from Yahoo, Gmail and other top ISPs.

• Improved Campaign Reporting and Analysis – Quickly view and drill down into all major aspects of campaign performance, including overlay reporting, clicks by target and link, key engagement metrics and social sharing and FTAF performance.

"When it comes down to it, email marketers are focused on two things – getting the biggest return from their existing customers and acquiring new ones – and this new version of Message Studio ratchets up their ability to do both in a big way," said Sam Cece, CEO of StrongMail.  "Major new features like Campaign Optimiser and StrongMail Influencer make Message Studio an even more powerful tool that will enable marketers to easily migrate from batch-and-blast email marketing to highly targeted campaigns that drive revenue and customer acquisition."
