February is the shortest month.

For many, bored of the cold and longing for summer, the end couldn’t come soon enough.
But for us here at Phrasee, it is a time of celebration and sober reflection (well, reflection, anyway). For you see, it was during this very month, a scant 2 years ago, that we first launched our phantastic website.
Did we know what to expect? Did we dare to dream how far we would come in the ensuing 2 years? Nope. But here we are.
£1,000,000 in seed funding, 2 UK blog awards finalist nominations, and 2 UK Business awards later, we find ourselves (and indeed the entire email marketing industry itself) standing at the precipice of something great.
The email marketing renaissance is in full swing, ROI numbers continue to increase industry wide and email has begun to reclaim its rightful place at the forefront of the digital marketing world.
So, do we in the email marketing sphere smugly sit back on our laurels and take our collective foot off the Twitter gas?
