Individualise your next email: a case study
Background:
In an effort to reduce costs a national association wants to send one email but the various state branches have a need to communicate with state specific information. Could one email cater to the needs of the organisation?
Answer:
The edelivering system can solve this issue
The key to the answer was the database. The database required one additional piece of information – the state.
The database information contains the following information:
- First Name
- Surname
- Organisation
- State
- Email address
Using this information PLANNING RESULTS designed a template which would contain a section for state information.

One email with six state specific versions
The benefits are clear:
- Economies in scale – overall cost of email communication less than sending six state version
- Less resources required to send out communication
- No doubling up of information
- Consistent communication to all members
The same system can be used in various applications subject to the information contained in the database:
- State or designated region specific
- Sales Representative specific
- You can even tailor it to be organisation specific
The possibilities are many. PLANNING RESULTS can assist in individualising your email campaign.
