WYSIWYG interface with no programming.
Deliver to target audiences via Publicaster emails.
Collect and report detailed campaign and viewer engagement, response
and viral forwarding activity by individual email address in real time.

4. Why Use Audio Visual Content for Email Marketing?
Achieve High Audience Engagement and Response Rates
People process visual data 60,000 times faster than text.
Why?...Because humans process data from images simultaneously
while we process text data sequentially. ¹
Online viewers are 4 to 7 times more likely to respond to rich media
(video) ads than static HTML banners.²
