PORTLAND, Ore., June 13, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Yesmail Interactive, an Infogroup company which powers intelligent customer interactions, today announced that Artfact LLC has selected Yesmail Interactive as its customer relationship and email marketing technology provider.
Artfact is the world's largest live auction marketplace. It reaches over 30 million unique bidders a year and serves more than 25,000 individual auction houses globally. Through Artfact's web properties, more than 3 million visitors each month arrive at the virtual doorsteps of auctioneers with unprecedented access. They can search and buy from over 160,000 auctions each year with a combined value of over $25 billion.
"Artfact has the daunting task of searching through thousands of art pieces in order to pair the ideal collector with the right art and collectible piece in real-time," said Michael Fisher, President of Yesmail Interactive."These highly sought after pieces may only be available at auction for a few hours, and potentially never again, as they enter private collections. Artfact needed to increase audience engagement and deliver value to auction house partners through the cultivation of an educated, engaged audience. With Yesmail, Artfact is now able to achieve this."
Key reasons Artfact selected Yesmail include their:
- Targeted Audience Profiles: Knowing the customer allows better targeting and more conversions.
- Market Intelligence: Drives channel strategy and targeting based on competitive insight.
- Deliverability: Increases inboxing rates with a goal of 100% deliverability.
- Dynamic Time-Based Content: Provides a data-driven campaign strategy by employing responsive design, send time optimization and test optimization.
- Integration: Enables seamless campaign integration across online, social, and email channels.
- Performance and Results Oriented Focus: Consistent optimization. Open rates have already been improved for Artfact by up to 55%.
"As our business continues its rapid growth, we require a CRM solution that drives contextual relevancy that consistently delivers superior results," said Rob Weisberg, CEO of Artfact. " Yesmail does just that. We are proud to have them as a partner."
