<h3><span class="mw-headline">E-mailing</span></h3>

<p>In September 2004, SMARTech's CEO, Jeff Averbeck, <a href="http://cache.zoominfo.com/CachedPage/?archive_id=0&page_id=1025426089&page_url=%2f%2fwww.business2.com%2fb2%2fweb%2farticles%2f0%2c17863%2c692392%2c00.html&page_last_updated=2%2f28%2f2005+8%3a12%3a20+PM&firstName=Jeff&lastName=Averbeck" class="external text" title="http://cache.zoominfo.com/CachedPage/?archive_id=0&page_id=1025426089&page_url=%2f%2fwww.business2.com%2fb2%2fweb%2farticles%2f0%2c17863%2c692392%2c00.html&page_last_updated=2%2f28%2f2005+8%3a12%3a20+PM&firstName=Jeff&lastName=Averbeck" rel="nofollow">told</a> <i>Business 2.0 Media</i> that the company was "running the Republican websites, [saying], 'Politics today is getting people to get up and do something.' More than 1 million volunteers and 6 million e-mail and letter-writing activists have signed up for the Republicans this year over the Web.

"All those people make a good test bed for sophisticated database marketing techniques. 'When we send out an e-mail,' Averbeck says, 'I can tell immediately how it was received -- whether it was opened, forwarded, or discarded. We have code in the e-mail that shows me.'"
