Benchmark Email Releases Free iPhone App for Creating Email Campaigns on the Go
The free app lets users add contacts, create and send email campaigns, and check response stats from an iPhone. Users can post emails to Twitter and Facebook, and send messages that include text, video and images using 10 different mobile email templates.

Los Alamitos, CA, Feb. 28, 2012 — Benchmark Email, an award-winning email marketing service for small business, has released a free iPhone app that lets users build an email list, send multimedia email campaigns, and track subscriber response from the palm of their hand. Also available for the iPad in 2X mode, the email marketing app lets users shoot video or photos with their phone, add the media into any of 10 free email templates, create text, and send out a message in seconds.

“As the world becomes ultra-mobile, more and more bulk email campaigns will be created and sent on the fly from coffee shops, trade shows, airport lounges, and thousands of other places,” says Curt Keller, CEO of Benchmark Email, an award-winning email marketing company. “The iconic iPhone is a huge part of the lives of millions of people, and the instantaneous, media-friendly and social nature of email marketing is tailor-made for this versatile hand-held device.”

Other email marketing services include instant YouTube syncing for video, posting of emails and newsletters to Facebook and Twitter, and the ability to create email lists by adding contacts individually or pulling them directly from the user’s iPhone contact list. Mass emails created within the app are fully CAN-SPAM compliant, and users can write exciting subject lines, store iPhone images in a gallery, and track everything from how many emails bounced to who opened each email.

The iPhone app is available for free in iTunes or Apple’s app store, and can be used after setting up a free trial at Benchmark Email.
