Emails We Love – Just in Time for Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching and our inboxes are heating up with plenty of love-fueled messages touting everything from wine, to chocolate, massages and cards (yes please to all of the above!). Big Insight projects spending to rise nearly 9% over last year to reach $17.6 billion. With that much cash on the line, everyone is vying for a piece of your heart and your wallet.
I perused my own inbox for a few of my favorites based on using email best practices and thought I’d share the love.
