Crown Partners implemented an enterprise email marketing solution for a nonprofit client to increase online donations and enhance the donor experience. The solution integrated ExactTarget's email marketing capabilities with Adobe Analytics to personalize messaging, track key performance indicators, and test email content and campaigns. Initial results one month later showed a 45% increase in donation revenue from email communications, decreased opt-out rates, and fewer but more relevant emails sent per month.
