Exclaimer has revolutionized how businesses approach their marketing personalization efforts through the use of their email signatures. By harnessing the power of Exclaimer, businesses unlock a potent, yet underused marketing channel that marries the twin objectives of brand consistency and personalized customer engagement.
Research shows that companies excelling at personalization generate 40 percent more revenue from those activities than average players. Let’s look at a couple of high-profile examples:
- Netflix uses personalization algorithms that automatically recommend movies based on what users have previously watched or rated highly; this helps them achieve 80% of their revenue.
- Amazon recommends products based on past purchases or browsing history; this helps them increase sales by 35%.
With consumers inundated with marketing messages at every corner, finding innovative ways to engage with your audience and carve out a competitive edge is a priority. Implementing a personalized marketing strategy allows brands to tailor their messaging to the individual needs and values of their customers — making each interaction feel unique. This not only enhances the customer experience, but leads to meaningful interactions and conversions that contribute to overall business growth.

What is Exclaimer?
Designed to bridge the gap between marketing and IT departments, Exclaimer presents a seamless solution for email signature management. It empowers marketing teams to manage design and messaging aspects of email signatures without being able to access critical IT infrastructure. This autonomy translates into an agile way to run personalized marketing activities directly within the email ecosystem.
Traditionally, the email signature has served a functional role, offering recipients information about the sender. But Exclaimer has reimagined it as a trusted, interactive marketing channel. This natural leap takes advantage of the core elements of corporate email: volume, trust, relevance, and precision targeting.
