We are a IT Hardware and Software Distribution Company based in Cape Town. This is a cutthroat market, and the need to market our products and be well in touch with customers is of paramount importance. We tried allot of mailing programs to market our products but with minimal success. The CIS Mail lists Platform has met our needs exactly, we send out 1900 emails every second day with our latest specials and deals and for the first time since we began using email as a marketing tool all of our clients are receiving our mails and we can manage the system ourselves and dont need a 3rd party. The system has also taken the admin need for us to unsubscribe those who wish to leave the list out of hands by enabling the recipient to unsubscribe himself, which is very useful. The adding of new email addresses and maintaining them is so easy and a real pleasure. We can strongly recommend the CIS Mail lists Platform.

Costs

Some clients send 10000 emails per day, others send a fraction of that many per year, we don't charge per email sent. Please contact us describing your intended use and we will reply with a quote.

In developing this product we attempted to improve upon what we found was the status quo in the market:-

  1. Using locally installed software (on your PC) to compose and send the email
    Why is this bad? Most ISPs block emails from a dialup or ADSP IP and if you get round this by using your ISP's SMTP server you are limited to a few hundred emails a day at most
    Our improvement: Our solution does not require any software to be installed locally and does not use your dialup or ADSL bandwidth to distribute the email. We use a high quality static data center IP address with no limits. If you publish an SPF record for your domain we will give you this address to include to further ensure delivery of your emails.
  2. Using a web interface to compose (and validate your email before it can be sent)
    Why is this bad? You would need to learn how to compose emails in some form of HTML editor. These tools charge per email sent.
    Our improvement: You use only your normal email client to compose the email and can use all of it's editing features. CIS does not charge per email sent.
  3. Difficulties unsubscribing from unwanted emails...
    Why is this bad? can result in negative publicity, damaged customer relations and even legal action
    Our improvement: A single click on a web link inserted by our software into your email is all that is necessary for a recipient to 'opt out' of receiving further emails.
