Summer is over…

Boo indeed.

Let’s forget lamenting the end of our phavorite season for a moment though. We have bigger fish to fry.

The Festival of Marketing 2018 is just around the corner, and we here at Phrasee are very, very excited. Not just because British broadcast legend Louis Theroux – one of the coolest human beings in the history of the world – is headlining the event. We’ve been busy preparing something pretty cool of our own for this year’s Festival of Marketing event: an immersive, mind-blowing Phrasee experience room in the North Vault courtyard. We’re calling it “The Phraseeum”, and it’s going to be awesome.

But just because the Phrasee squad has been preoccupied prepping for the Festival of Marketing doesn’t mean the digital marketing world has stopped spinning. There were still plenty of campaigns to build, emails to send, and tweets to tweet.

Let’s see how we did this month…

We dropped truth bombs… 

Very true: Personalisation in email is not always means relevance. #emailgeeks @jencapstraw #DSCHI

Even when most people wouldn’t understand them #notourproblem…

Outlook 07 & 10 render bolded uppercase letters as a tiny bit less bold than 13 & 16. Must have the boldness levels the same? Wrap text in an h1 tag and use Outlook specific styles (<!–[if (mso 12)]> and <!–[if (mso 14)]>) to increase the font-size of h1 by 1px. #emailgeeks

We stuck up for the much-maligned millennials (with a little help from She-Ra)…

We want to blame the millennials for everything. But they love email and are the top demographic who are engaging with email right now!

Whether those snooty balloon shop employees labeled us mega-nerds or not, we ordered those “We love email” balloons anyway…
