Make your email list double opt-in: Permission Pass your list!

Many email marketers view a large list as proof of success. After all, a large list implies that hundreds or thousands of people have signed up to receive your emails. But how many of those email addresses have actual value? How many are never opened, automatically deleted or bounced back with an error message?

Drop your dead weight with Benchmark Email’s Permission Pass System, a free service to paid customers.

Permission Pass will “close the loop”, making your email list lean, mean, and 100% double opt-in. Save time and money by only sending to customers interested in what you have to say.

Permission Pass benefits include:
	A tighter, more focused list
	More conversions
	Better open rates
	Great reputation with ISPs
	Outstanding delivery rates
	No more spam complaints
	An audience genuinely interested in what you’re selling

Here’s how the system works:

1	You agree to Permission Pass your list. This means that we’ll take your list and send emails to your customers. In these messages, customers will confirm via a link that they’re still interested in receiving your emails. Once a customer confirms their sign up, they are now officially double opt-in.
2	We add your confirmed customers to an elite, double opt-in list Once a customer confirms their email sign up, they’ll immediately receive your email campaign or newsletter. We’ll also add them to a choice list of double opt-in subscribers.
3	We’ll use special servers to send to your Permission Passed customers Our high reputation servers are only used to send email on behalf customers with double opt-in lists. Using a Permission Pass server will help you build a great sender reputation, and it will immediately boost your delivery rates.
