Email Marketing

Hi,

I've been searching for email marketing providers and there's one that really stands out as a good solution. However in their terms of use they prohibit affiliate marketers from using their system, I don't want to name them (just in case they pick this post up in google alerts) but they're the ones with the monkey in their name.

I was wondering if anyone has used them and know's if they are really hot on this part of their T&Cs.

I must say I've never heard of them prohibiting affiliate marketers. I've dealt with a few of their staff and they've never mentioned the cashback newsletters which we were deploying, which had affiliate links in them, being prohibited, and I've never read it in any rules I've been presented with - unless affiliate stuff is prohibited in an obscure clause in the middle of dozens of others.

Perhaps best to ask them straight if you're considering using them.

For what it's worth, I'd consider other ESPs anyway, as the company you allude to was terrible in terms of their customer service when we used them.

This was mentioned in Shoemoney post (rant) sometime ago (I've only ever read 3 and this was one of them). So, yes, it's true but, as mentioned above, it's probably one of those terms that nobody knows about until they decide they don't like you.
