Leading technology research firm Forrester Research cited MarCom:Interactive in the latest installment of its "Marketing and RSS" series, calling on marketers to follow MarComs "lead" when implementing RSS subscription services.
(PRWEB) September 16, 2005 -- In a report titled "Using RSS as a Marketing Tool," Forrester Research analyst, Charlene Li says marketers should "follow the lead of agency MarCom:Interactive" by enabling "one click" subscriptions to popular RSS news aggregators.
Li says in the report that MarComs method avoided "Add to My XYZ button overload as users fragment across multiple RSS aggregators."
MarCom:Interactive incorporates in its website a tool developed by Methodize for its one-click RSS subscriptions. Methodized script is available for use at: http://www.methodize.org/quicksub/.
In this second of two reports, Forrester outlines why marketers should experiment with RSS, especially marketers with customers who fit the profile of early RSS adopters. Even if it's something as simple as putting press releases in an RSS feed, Forrester says marketers will benefit from early exposure to distributing information via RSS — and receive valuable feedback from key constituents on what types of content they would like to have.
