    Know what’s working

    Focus3 with iContact delivers an unrivaled toolkit to reconnect and re-qualify your existing prospect database.   See the results for yourself!

    “Focus3′s database email marketing services has generated call-in responses, tours and sales from prospects that were previously marked as dead or inactive.  Now is the time to wake up our database and re-connect with prospects.  Focus3 does that, with precision, efficiency and results! A great value added tool for the sales process.”Marc Wilson, Principal,  The Settings Development Company

    “Your partnership with iContact delivers! We booked 5 solid appointments last week during our call night.  3 of those came from inactive leads that received the email.  With the iContact blast we can quickly assess the interest level on what we’re sending out – especially the leads that had been inactive .. a great tool for the sales team to use when their calls are caught up.  By having the Focus 3/iContact results we can now focus on calling the interested leads rather than just randomly calling. Thanks for all your help, we really enjoy this program!”Michael Kalb, Director of Sales, The Settings

    “I was very impressed with the reporting. It was fast and easy to read. It looks as though I will have one sale generated from our last blast. My folks from Alpharetta, Ga., are going to contract next week. Just one makes it certainly worthwhile, and I’m working on more.”Greg Smith, Creative Communities
