After decades since the inception of Email Marketing, this technology is still one of the most widely used channels for communication today, particularly with entrepreneurs, marketers and business owners. It’s helped many startups grow into multi-billion dollar companies. Autoresponders and email advertising tools are probably the most essential parts of your business. You utilize it to follow-up with clients. To keep individuals returning to your site. To build loyalty. To create sales.
The unfortunate side of email is spam and although spam filters do a good job of detecting junk and send it straight to the spam folder, many organizations’ legitimate emails end up in the spam folder. If your subscribers don’t see your emails, they can’t open, click or convert. The other downside is that Sprites are commonly used in some email systems which is essentially spying on the recipient.
Markethive’s free platform is designed to give you what no one else has or ever will. This complete Inbound Marketing and Social Media Network can offer this because Markethive has developed the technology and have a greater vision into the future than most businesses do. Markethive Autoresponders are built by the original inventor of autoresponders back in 1996, Thomas Prendergast, CEO and Co-Founder of Markethive.
Co-Founder and CEO of Markethive, Thomas Prendergast states.
“We know you struggle beyond description to survive and we are here to assist you to do better than that. This is why I took the action to make available to you for free for life. This is the Markethive platform ‘example’:”
Markethive Autoresponders will beat the competition at any price. Our emails deliver 99% of the time, “To the Inbox”. There is no need to warn your subscribers to “Check their Spam Folder”.
This is incredible and just based on that, we just handed you an email system that Aweber ($29); Getresponse ($28); TrafficWave ($17); MailChimp ($10) and Constant Contact ($15) charged as a monthly subscription and will charge you over $50 a month or more for a system allowing only 2500+ leads or subscribers with an average inbox delivery of 70%. Markethive has no limit on how many campaigns, leads or subscribers you acquire either. It’s unlimited and totally for FREE, with a 99.97% INBOX delivery.
Email deliverability rates can really make or break an email marketing campaign. Primarily, email campaigns and autoresponders use a capture page opt-in form to collect data, being a name, email and often times a phone number. This takes time and usually a number of steps to complete. You then in some cases need to go to your email to verify it. It is well documented that the more steps in the signup form process, the more likely prospects will be lost for lack of follow-through. Email verification can reduce lead conversion up to 50%, delayed verification and delivery to spam folder reduce conversion up to 90%.
The Markethive email system is unique in that our capture technology uses OAuth Technology to capture the data of a potential lead or subscriber. This virtually guarantees the data is legitimate and the email is clean and not from a spam trap often acquired through web site harvesting. The actions available to build email lists in Markethive are via Markethive Capture Widgets, Markethive Capture pages, Markethive Blogs, and Markethive Profile pages. This guarantees email quality unlike anyone else and delivers members of Markethive, their subscribers and lead prospects’ email delivery “to the Inbox” of nearly 100%.
When registering through the OAuth Technology it utilizes a driven socket connection verification process that passes, with your permission, your Name, Email, and photo from your selected account, either Gmail, Yahoo, LinkedIn or Facebook to the database, server and in Markethive’s case, the Blockchain. This verifies who you are and in no way gives Markethive access to your account or additional data. This adds a huge layer of security for you and the community and ensures email deliverability success.

Markethive embraces OAuth and Blockchain technology as it keeps all your data and hard work under your control. It cannot be deleted by anyone else but you. This process also prevents 3rd parties from tracking you on our secure distributed security data system. So when registering and utilizing the complete marketing system within Markethive to build your business, including the autoresponder system (CRM) your security and autonomy is our highest priority. Gone from our system is the aged old and nonsecure process of entering fields with your name, email, and phone, etc, coupled with a verification email and validation link.
The advent of the blockchain adds several new twists and may serve to be the disruption that has been overdue for marketers and advertisers that are looking to take their targeted campaigns to the next level. We are in for a ride over the next couple of years as technologies like blockchain slip into every facet of our lives. It’s not the strongest who survive or smartest, but the most adaptable.
