“The share-to-social feature has been a great way to integrate social media into our emails,” said Steve Werkmeister, director of email and social media marketing for Salem Web Network, a StormPost customer. “The addition of a Google +1 button will enable us to ensure we are part of the conversation on the rapidly growing Google+ social network, and it will provide yet another way for our customers to engage and share our content with their social circles.”
“Email and social media are complementary channels, and as consumer content sharing across digital media continues to explode, we expect tools like the Google +1 button to be among the most heavily adopted by marketers,” said Tony D’Anna, executive vice president and GM of Datran Media’s StormPost. “Features like the Google +1 tool help brands make it as easy as possible for subscribers to share email content, allowing marketers to reach new prospects by tapping into the massive reach of users’ personal networks.
