Time to Invest in E-mail, By Bill McCloskey, Jul 2, 2009
Bill Starts off talking about why we all need to invest in Email Marketing but then really gets into the two main priorities of actually doing it: Content and Deliverability, then goes on to cover social sharing etc. etc. This is quite long but is a one stop page to get your priorities right.

E-Mail List Purchase: A Shortcut to Success? Jul 9, 2009
