I searched through a number of forums and word of mouth on the web, and their name consistently came up. They have been in business longer than any email marketing company that I can remember talking with.
Our company needed to revamp our entire email system for our main brand of bicycles, Sixthreezero. We hired InboxArmy to build out new automated flows, post purchase email flows, marketing campaigns, and anything else we could come up with to stimulate our sales. I worked with the director and his designers to develop the emails that would connect with our target market. InboxArmy managed me, I literally had to keep up with how fast they work.
Immediate increase in revenues, our return customer conversion rate increased by roughly 50%, and our open to click rates all increased. The ROI was about 26 to 1. Zero complaints, our resources were not wasted hiring InboxArmy.
