Email marketing can be very effective for SMEs , but many Indian companies and website send emails which exclusively consists of images which are hosted on their server. Due to security reasons, these emails are rarely opened and the email marketing effort is wasted.

I am getting this email regularly, this is the 4th email I have got.
