Email marketing has had many lives. In its infancy people flocked to it based on its newness and novelty. But, plagued by spam and viruses, email marketing has also had its dark days. The good news is, email marketing isn’t dead and it isn’t going anywhere. In fact, it's become the core channel for all marketing activities - marketers and recipients alike are hooked on it and are evolving with it.

While online marketing tools and channels are evolving rapidly, email marketing practices must evolve at the same pace to keep up. It would be great if we could look into a crystal ball to predict the future, but the best we can do is rely on a proven marketing medium - email - and build on it.

So how do you reinvent your email marketing strategy to leverage the latest and greatest? With all the buzz around integrated online marketing, including search engine marketing and social networking, many marketers are scratching their heads wondering how to get started, and how to incorporate the right media with email marketing without compromising results.
