250ok and Marketo Breathe New Life Into Email

250ok strengthens partner integration with Marketo with addition of Email Informant and Reputation Powerpack to take email campaigns to the next level

SAN MATEO, Calif. – July 20, 2016 – Marketo, Inc. (NASDAQ: MKTO), the leading provider of engagement marketing software and solutions, today announced that 250ok, a leading provider of deliverability services, has strengthened its partner integration to make email deliverability smarter. As part of this enhanced collaboration, 250ok will offer its full product suite, including Email Informant and Reputation Powerpack, to make email more engaging, intelligent, and effective for Marketo customers.

"We are extremely excited to continue to expand our relationship with Marketo,” said Tim Moore, vice president of Customer Solutions, 250ok. "With Marketo’s partnership to offer our full product suite, including Email Informant and Reputation Powerpack, customers will possess unparalleled visibility into the data driving the success of their email programs."

According to a study by Deloitte, Americans collectively check their smartphones upwards of 8 billion times per day and continuously check email. Despite the volume of emails people read and send daily, the vast majority of messages get lost in filters. Up to 85 percent of incoming email is considered abusive, and mailbox providers often apply aggressive measures to deter spam and protect customers. As a result, senders need more sophisticated tools to understand when emails deliver and when they do not. Addressing this challenge, the enhanced partner integration between 250ok and Marketo will allow proactive management and insights that will help optimize future email campaigns.

“250ok has been at the forefront of innovation for one of the oldest forms of digital communications. Its ability to continually reinvent the medium is testament to its years of experience and dedication to combining scalable technology with intelligent solutions,” said Kiersti Esparza, director, cloud platform technologies, Marketo. “This partnership with 250ok exemplifies how Marketo works closely with partners to continue to innovate and offer the best, integrated products and services to our customers.”

Americans spend up to 6.5 hours a day on email; here’s how 250ok and Marketo are improving the experience:

  • Email Informant – Responsible for delivering more seamless emails, this offering provides:
    • Engagement Analysis: Offers insights into who read your email campaign and for how long, drilling down to the individual recipient, device, and platform.
