Website: LMO.com Beta

admin — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 19:07:48 +0000

since i’ve been working with LM&O Advertising ( September of last year ), the website has been top of my “to do” list. to effect the delivery of the site asap i wanted to keep the team tight knit and focused. and it worked. the site was in alpha for a matter of weeks as opposed to months. LMO’s previous site had been around for some time and no longer reflected the relevance they truly exude as an agency. under the direction of chris laughlin as well as karen the interactive director and sherri, director of business development, natako was given carte blanche to design and build a proper web-presence. the site utilizes a number of technologies to tell LMO’s story. it’s now officially in public beta.

props to the entire LMO management team ( especially mike caplanis and dave marinaccio ) for allowing me the freedom to do my thing.

Check Out Some of the Features

Campaign snapshot

See how your email campaign has performed at a glance. Find out how many recipients opened your email, clicked a link, unsubscribed, forwarded your email to a friend and loads more.

Opens Over Time

Our simple Opens Over Time Report shows exactly who is checking out your email, how many times they’re doing it, and when they did it. You can get an overview for the life of the campaign or drill down all the way to minute by minute detail.

Recipient Activity

Our recipient activity report lets you get down to some serious detail on your campaign. Easily see who opened, who clicked, who bounced and who unsubscribed. You can even search for a specific subscriber to see exactly what they did with your email.

Link activity

The Link Activity Report makes it very easy to see what your subscribers found most interesting, as well as who clicked and who did not.

Bounce Summary

As well as automatically processing any bounced emails for you, we also tell you exactly why that subscriber bounced out of your list. Maybe we got an out of office reply, or perhaps their mailbox was full – whatever the reason, they didn’t get your email and we’ll tell you why.

Compare campaigns

Easily compare any of your email campaign with each other. Is your open rate improving? Are you seeing less bounces over time?

Launched the client section

email and text messages just ain’t much of a project management strategy. it’s time to grow up. so, i’ve been seeking a prm platform that would allow clients to be able to request new projects, create tasks with due dates, see my schedule, and have a record of all of the above when i say i never got “that email”. i did get that email. it was just buried and i was to lazy to look for it, so i made you resend it.

i’ve used basecamp before but found the ui a bit inconsistent and overwhelming for my needs. also tested out action method, but this is really for internal project management. really wanted to make it work but i doesn’t allow collaborators to add projects or tasks unless they are also using the app. not realistic for most clients. enter GoPlan 2.0. this has all the features i was looking for and none of the ones i don’t. projects, tasks, sub-tasks, due dates, schedules, discussions (for new requests), time-tracking (including a nifty mac osx widget). the ui could use some repetition as it took me 15 mins to figure out where in the app to upgrade from the free account-its in the “edit my company tab. but this is just a great app, perfect for natako.
