Blue Sky Factory, an industry leading email service provider (http://www. blueskyfactory. com/) (ESP), today announced the release of SocialSync, the newest edition to their email marketing (http://www. blueskyfactory. com/) product and service offerings. SocialSync allows marketers to extend and optimize their marketing messages by adding publicly-available social data to their existing email database.



With the data SocialSync provides, marketers can create deeper connections with their audience, jump-start social media campaigns, and target messages based on subscribers’ activities on the social web.



Social media expert Chris Brogan on SocialSync: "SocialSync answers a lot of your basic strategy questions and helps you start to understand your social plan of action. For companies that aren’t sure what they’re doing with social media, but have a robust email marketing program already in place, SocialSync will definitely be a game-changer and help give their nascent social campaigns a real shot in the arm."



As part of Blue Sky Factory’s Publicaster email marketing platform, SocialSync allows marketers to target their audience based on:

Social Demographics. Segment users based on social network gender and age information.



Social Users. Connect with subscribers on popular social networks, including Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn to establish a social media strategy quickly.



Social Influencers. Target popular subscribers with a high number of connections/friends/followers to rapidly build influence.



“Email marketing and social media are increasingly being used to get more out of organizations' online marketing efforts, and SocialSync bridges the gap between these channels in a way that nothing else does,” said Blue Sky Factory CEO Greg Cangialosi. “SocialSync not only allows marketers to multiply the power of their database, but also gives them what they need to grow a strong social media community.”
