    Renault has achieved some seriously good results by using email marketing strategy. The entire post was presented in a good way. I think the results achieved itself tells how effectively they have used email marketing techniques.

    Very good content. It is wonderful to observe that a company based in France appointed a consultant based in UK for its social media marketing. Digital world dissolves the boundaries.

  3. Well written blog with appropriate facts and figures to support findings. I thought telemarketing is effective marketing only in banking and financial companies for their retail products. Never imagined that it can be effectively used to tap automobile customers for trucks and tractors.
