Just a quick one

This is a copy of my latest work, so clean and crisp!! The coolest thing is that with each email sent the image and text on the side in light blue changes as well as being an active link! All this and only 5kb!!

Email marketing has never been so cool!!


And this is what my younger bro (Green) has been up to, he really should get his own blog as he has quite a cool story to tell!!

Something a little personal…

I love the colour red and all things that are red. Obvious I know…

The below is a photo of my bike (beauty meets beast).

Yes that’s what happens when not ugly red machines get side swiped by ugly not red machines.

Luckily know one was badly injured.

This just makes me think more on how important it is to maintain the beauty in everything and say no to your own ugly.

So please I have the job of making daily email communication, marketing and branding so beautiful!!

Red's first step

Hello to those who are to read this.

This is the Blog for Me - Red - and how I came to be and what I have done….

My journey to existence began as a connection in the synapses of the brains of 2 very smart people some 4 years ago, and with that a new error of effective email marketing began for day to day communication.

The idea was simple, control, branding and selling through day to day corporate emails. Sounds simple most think they can do the same through such wonderful products as Outlook, yes mister Gates and his team of propellers are great at what the do… We just do one bit better. Many others think they can also do what we do by making a HTML page and adding that to their auto signature… Once again not so cool!

Just to make things very clear from the beginning – I am not a newsletter tool (sure my brother Green is)!! But a smart application for day to day emails.

So why am I - Red – so much better, simple from 2 people we became 12, 12 people who are passionate about making email communication graceful and smart – 12 people who are also passionate about the delivery of emails and that the emails get through as intended, not with HTML crap or broken links.

How I can do this… watch this space and I will share with you my abilities and how I am intending on making the world a more beautiful place – one email at a time.
