E-mail marketing solutions

-
In Elion we offer e-mail and homepage hosting service to business customers. From time to time we get inquiries from our customers who want to do e-mail marketing. Could you recommend what e-mail marketing tools are good in your opinion? Are there any Baltic or Nordic solutions for that? Any freeware solutions?

For Pilveraal.ee newsletter I use GetResponse’s free and limited version. In my opinion GetResponse is good. There is an easily configurable form for registering e-mail addresses, the user experience is OK and there is a lot of newsletter statistics available. The only problem with GetResponse is their high price. I as a blogger would be ready to pay about 10,well maybe even 15-20 euros/year. $98 per year with maximum 250 subscribers is at least 4 times too much in my opinion.

    I cannot response to your question directly but would like to point, that according to Estonian laws, the e-mail marketers must care, store and handle their customers letters of applications to receive marketing e-mails.

    They need to care also about correct content of marketing e-mails, including options to unsubscribe from receivers list.

    Ignoring these requirements, marketers can be accused, arraigned by Estonian Data Protection Inspectorate in max sum of EUR 3200.

    Sendsmaily - Estonian software, user friendly with A/B testing capabilities. Free up to 1,000 contacts per month. Probably the best value for money in the Baltics right now if you're not looking for something too fancy.

    Others include: MailChimp, Campaign Monitor, iContact, ConstantContact etc.

    Tools, that can handle marketing automation: Apsis Newsletter Pro, Compost, Lyris, Marketo etc.

Misconceptions regarding electric cars

-

EU's Fit for 55 plan includes quite ambitious emissions reduction targets for the car industry and this has initiated a big discussion in the industry and among thought-leaders. I would like to point out two topics where our thinking tends to go wrong and where looking at the wider picture makes sense Let's think wider than just switching the power source from internal combustion to battery-electric. Here is a photo of one of the first cars made. It is a 1896 Arnold Benz, whose driver Walter Arnold received the worlds first speeding ticket for driving 13km/h with it. As you can see the car looks like a horse carriage minus the horse. It was only a few decades later that cars were considered to be cars and not horse carriages with engines and could therefore be designed differently. At present day we have a similar problem and are stuck in the thinking that an electric vehicle must be a car where everything must be otherwise the same only the engine to be a battery powered elect...

Last mile delivery revolution in Estonia

Image
The revolutions that change the government tend to be noisy and bloody affairs, but the revolutions in technology and economics happen rather silently. This is because true technical revolutions happen when people start to take a new phenomenon as a normal everyday thing and don't even notice that they changed their behaviour. And one such thing is now happening in Estonia - the radical change in the last mile delivery. As an indicator, here is a list of changes that have happened in the last 5 years: There are now 3 parcel terminal networks operating in Estonia. Omniva, SmartPOST and DPD. Therefore there is competition and prices are driven down. Most E-shops are integrated with some or all of them. There are at least 5 online grocery supermarkets that offer home delivery: Selver, Coop, Fresh and Go, Barbora (the shop previously known as Maxima) and Prisma. One of the latest innovations is done by Coop, who offers grocery lockers that are refrigerated and to where you c...

How to move to Estonia Guide (for ICT consultants, specialists....but for others also)

-
The information in this post and the links were updated on 18th of July 2014. In my opinion Estonia is a good place for IT specialists to find a job and work in! Especially in the situation when the (youth) unemployment is rising and in many European countries there is no sign of it easing.  I promoted the idea to the Estonian IT companies in one of my recent posts . With this post I want to give my contribution to the exchange of talent inside EU. I hope this helps at least a few people.  This post is definitely not an official guide, but more of a friendly advice. If you have any questions regarding moving or any important information that could help others then please comment this post!  This post focuses on moving to Tallinn. Tartu, as the second biggest town in Estonia, is also an alternative with Playtech and Webmedia as the biggest IT sector employers there. The first thing you need is a job .  If you are an IT specialist with a university degree ther...
