Ematic can help you SOURCE marketing technology at the best prices and terms
If you’re in the market for new marketing technology, the smart move is to contact Ematic Solutions first. At no cost to you, an entire team of experts joins your team as your “buyer’s agent” to help you review the best options, negotiate the best deals, and ensure that you get the best product at the best price every time. Our teams are local and understand your needs, and will work on your behalf to ensure that you get the outcome you are looking for. Ematic Solutions isn’t beholden to any one technology, and isn’t here to sell you something. We are here to help you with every aspect of the buying process, and sometimes the answer is to simply fix what’s wrong with your current provider or not buy anything at all if there’s not a good match for your needs. When you contact providers directly, they will send you their agents, whom you know as “sales people.” It’s their profession to convince you that their product is the best for you and get you to buy it at the highest possible price and the most favorable terms to them. A sales person will never tell you that their product isn’t a good fit for your business, and often times will even stretch the truth about their product’s capabilities to convince you that it can do exactly what you’re looking for. Isn’t it a good idea then to have someone on your team who can provide honest, unbiased opinions? Don’t you want someone on your team who’s seen thousands of contracts and knows what the market rates are, where you can negotiate, and can help create the best environment for you to get the deal you want? Even better, wouldn’t it be great not to have 10 sales people calling you constantly, sending you follow ups and check ins, and pressuring you on timelines that are based on their needs vs your needs? Ematic Solutions has a team of over 100 marketing technology experts constantly reviewing the entire ecosystem that now includes 10k+ companies building marketing technology. We can give you an overview of the market and help narrow down a few recommendations that will uniquely fit your needs. When you’re ready, our Growth Consultants can help reach out to the providers you’re interested in to organize pitch meetings directly with them, then narrow down to a few finalists for the negotiations to begin. If you’re not ready or didn’t find the right thing, no worries! There’s no commitment to buy and if you’d like we can help explore some more options. If you are ready to proceed into the buying process, this is perhaps where Ematic can help most: collectively our team sees thousands of deals every year, and we know what the current market rates look like, and what kind of terms can be negotiated in your favor. The outcome will be that you get the right product at the best possible price, every time when you start with Ematic. Perhaps best of all: we’re not done once the purchase is complete! Ematic can also help with implementations, migrations, integrations with your other marketing technology and ongoing support, all delivered locally and professionally. Not only that, we’re constantly reviewing the marketing technology landscape, and if something better becomes available, we’ll be the first to let you know.
A letter from our Founder: Re-imagining Ematic Solutions.
Looking back on the 8 years Ematic has been in business, and the thousands of lives we touched between employees, customers, investors, partners and vendors across our 9 markets in which we operate as well as the rest of the globe, I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve accomplished but aware that our mission is far from complete. I think the biggest lesson learned is that innovation isn’t purely a technology phenomenon, and that to address a market as diverse as Southeast Asia, innovation needs to happen at every level of an organization to achieve the goals of the business and our customers. Ematic has always advocated a distributed approach to marketing technology: focused, best of breed products will beat monolithic “all-in-one” initiatives every time. At some point as our business grew, and our offerings grew, we realized this same thinking needed to apply to our own business which has led to a fairly radical re-think about our positioning in the market. Our mission has always been to deliver real results for marketers – whether through our own technology, through 3rd party partners, or through our knowhow and services. While we’re still best known for Email Marketing, our drive to deliver results has increasingly led us to new places in a quest to bring a more integrated approach to the entire scope of digital marketing. We decided to heed our own advice, and re-imagine Ematic as not a single company, but an ecosystem where best of breed offerings can thrive and a unifying layer of business interfaces tie everything together to generate a whole that’s greater than the sum of it’s parts. Today we have reorganized into Ematic Group, which sports an initial lineup of three brands and business units, separating our digital agency (Elixus), our technology business (Sub AI) and bringing back our flagship brand, Ematic Solutions as a Marketing Technology Consultancy. The combined effect of these three business units gives us both the strength and the flexibility to tackle the core challenges faced by marketers in markets across Southeast Asia. The most fundamental challenge of building great digital experiences for consumers in Southeast Asia boils down to one key thing: diseconomies of scale. Let’s face it: the Americans have it good when it comes to tech because the unit costs of technology are exceedingly favorable when you have a large single market and high Customer Lifetime Values. That means in Southeast Asia we pay higher unit costs for technology and leverage that against a population with significantly lower spending power, and frequently that leaves marketers upside down on their digital marketing initiatives. If we want to build better lives for consumers, employees and businesses in Southeast Asia (…and we do!), we must understand that core challenge in unit economics and address it at every turn. Those of you who know our killer app, Hi-iQ know that it has a singular purpose of eliminating wasteful spend in email marketing. Those of you who know Elixus know that they are an ROAS Machine focused on maximizing every dollar (Baht, Dong, Ringget, Peso, Rupiah too) spent. In some ways though, I’m almost most excited about reintroducing the Ematic Solutions brand to the market as it is capable of delivering impact on our collective unit economics challenge in a way we’ve not been able to do before. Ematic Solutions is a Buyer’s Agent – we help marketers ensure that you’re buying the best marketing technology at the best price with the fastest time-to-value and the maximum long-term return on investment. We have built a team who’s job is to scope the entire digital marketing landscape across the globe, evaluate the products in terms of price and quality, and identify which are most uniquely fit for our markets. We have now partnered with more than 50 marketing technology firms from around the globe and are adding more every day. To illustrate the point, a few years ago Ematic Solutions was a pure MailChimp shop. We still love those guys, but our roster of partners today just for messaging includes Iterable, Campaign Monitor, Mailjet, MailGun, Klaviyo, OneSignal, Active Campaign, Insider, Moengage, Webengage, Messagebird, Twilio, Smartmessage and several more coming soon. We also offer services on Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Adobe Campaign, Clevertap, Emarsys, DotDigital and Netcore. Our quest to help marketers maximize their ROI requires Ematic to minimize our costs so you don’t pay “on top” of your tech. In many scenarios, we can deliver technology, implementation of the technology, local support and services all for less than if you simply bought the technology directly. For those who want and need more help, we are also unveiling a whole range of services to help with a lot of the really “tough stuff” that many business struggle with. Let’s face it: operating a marketing team these days is getting more complex all the time, and often the need for specialization simply doesn’t align with the size of organization that makes sense for your business, and we want Ematic Solutions to be your swiss army knife to fill the gaps and ensure your entire ecosystem is running like a well-oiled machine. The bottom line: Ematic Solutions isn’t beholden to any particular technology. We can help your business with any marketing technology, and with any challenges you are having with your marketing technology. Ematic Solutions is here to build you the growth stack of your dreams, catered to your needs and budget, and open up a world of flexibility to adapt to whatever changes may come. It’s a very exciting time, and we are just getting started. Come join us on a journey to a better Southeast Asia.
Congratulations, Doug Chestnut!
That’s a little inside joke for our friends at Mailchimp – we know it’s “Ben Chestnut.” What a journey it’s been for those guys from a small-time agency business to the largest email marketing firm in the world, and a whopping $12 billion final price at the exit. Ematic Solutions essentially built our business around Mailchimp in the early days, becoming their largest partner in the world at one point (and still one of the largest today). We had the privilege of meeting the Mailchimp folks both in Singapore and at their headquarters in Atlanta a few years back, and it’s simply a great company with great people who have worked very hard to create one of the best products the world has ever known. The deal also seems to make a lot of sense for Intuit, despite what some folks are saying. Mailchimp has always focused on small business, and that will bring a ton of users into the Intuit ecosystem. If you’re an existing customer on Mailchimp, you should contact us to find out how we can help optimize your experience, cost and performance.
ALERT: Issues with Microsoft Domains
There appears to be an issue related to Microsoft domains (Hotmail, MSN, Outlook), causing massive spikes in abuse complaints and unsubscribe rates. This is affecting all ESP’s and email senders, even those with very good data management and subscription management practices. Ematic is investigating this issue to understand what preventative or corrective measures can be put in place, and in certain scenarios we might recommend suppressing all Hotmail, MSN or Outlook domains temporarily. Mailchimp users have been specifically affected due to their automated “account blocking” system, requiring forced removals of large portions of their perfectly valid subscribers, as well as a block on all future imports to the account. If your account has been blocked and you need help, please contact us. We will post more information as it becomes available.
Motionable for Website: Efficiently improve SEO using explainer videos
What is an explainer video? It’s a method of conveying knowledge to package the information you want to deliver in a short narrative through video – explain a concept and understandably create top-of-mind awareness and increase message retention with a clear call to action. Adding a video to your home page will help increase your SEO. Incorporating such a method will also result in more traffic to your website from different sources that talk about your video and further advance your website ranking. However, having good content and guiding the viewer to visit your website at www.[website].com at the end of the video isn’t sufficient as most videos are often not watched until the end. And this is where Motionable steps in. An agency team with a strong performance marketing DNA can strategically help you apply the proper keywords, video titles, and descriptions that can further boost your SEO. Moreover, they can help consult and optimize your explainer videos for any orientation and length based on social media platforms.

They leverage your static assets and turn them into visually engaging animated gifs to help deliver complex pictures and ideas into a short and straightforward clip.

Klaviyo: The perfect email solution for eCommerce

Unlike other email solutions, they are a marketing automation platform built explicitly for eCommerce and online merchants to deliver personalized and better journeys for their customers. Klaviyo isn’t the most affordable email solution, and in fact, it costs twice as expensive vs. other industry-standard ESPs. However, the platform was designed for growth-minded marketers and Ematic still fancy them because they allow you to connect your e-store in a few clicks, and all of your customer’s data, including the historical, will get synced in real-time so you can act on them immediately. Moreover, they also have pre-built integrations with dozens of eCommerce apps that allow you to comfortably “plug and play” which for some marketers would be a game-changer as that will reduce a fair amount of costly integration processes and makes trying new apps more straightforward. Other reasons why we think Klaviyo is excellent: Klaviyo has direct integrations with almost all major eCommerce players, including Shopify, Magento, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and many more. They also have dozens of other pre-built integrations with popular eCommerce apps that you are probably using today. From CRM, Review, Referral, Loyalty, Helpdesk, Analytics, etc. They have it all. You can set up welcome series, abandoned cart or browse emails, and transactional emails in minutes from their library of pre-built automation available at your fingertips. You can preview your user details in one view, including their activity on the website, their email open and click action, their total spend, segments or groups they are on, and many more. Klaviyo has a built-in easy setup signup form to help you grow your database faster. Klaviyo’s user interface is exceptionally user-friendly; it is perfect for marketers who are not tech-savvy but still fancy to create sophisticated email journeys or EDM like the pros. Having said that, if you are interested to find out more about Klaviyo and how it can work for your eCommerce, Ematic can provide a demo, source, and onboard you properly in Klaviyo to make sure you make the right decision and get the best experience out of using the platform.
