      There’s
      no doubt that email marketing works BUT in addition to the traditional email
      marketing (mass email) one should look at another marketing opportunity and
      that is the emails we all send from our corporate email addresses every day. I
      represent a company that has developed a solution for just those emails and
      thus this post.

      The
      basic idea behind WRAPmail is to utilize the facts that all businesses have
      websites and employees that send emails every day. These emails can become
      complete marketing tools and help promote, brand, sell and cross-sell in
      addition to drive traffic to the website and conduct research. WRAPmail is
      available for free at http://www.wrapmail.com

      WRAPmail
      also helps search for missing children with every email sent by incorporating
      an optional RSS feed from the Center for Missing and Exploited Children
