 When Inc. magazine released its 2006 annual ranking of the Inc. 500 in August, IPOWER was pleased to see that it ranked 121 on the list partly because of its three-year sales growth percentage of 801.2%. The Inc. 500 is Inc. magazine's list of the 500 fastest-growing independent, privately-held companies in the U.S. "It's an honor to be recognized by such a prestigious magazine as Inc.," said IPOWER CEO & President Thomas Gorny. "I started the company with only a few thousand dollars put on my credit card and a dream. Now, only four short years later, IPOWER has helped over 500,000 small businesses achieve success online. I believe a big reason for our success is based on IPOWER's commitment to our customers' needs. We are always looking far ahead to see how IPOWER can better service our customers."
It is a great honor for IPOWER to be listed in the ranks of other highly successful and great companies. "If you want to find out which companies are going to change the world, look at the Inc. 500," said Inc. Editor Jane Berentson. "These are the most innovative, dynamic, fast-growth companies in the nation, the ones coming up with solutions to some of our most intractable ills, creating systems that let us conduct business faster and easier, and manufacturing products we soon discover we can't live without. The Inc. 500 list is Inc. magazine's tribute to American business ingenuity and ambition."

Use these five tips to get maximum results
by Paul Chaney,
Practical eCommerce contributor
1. MAKE THE INTEGRITY OF YOUR LIST YOUR NUMBER ONE GOAL.
"If you are serious about wanting to do email professionally, you need to be diligent in how you sign up contacts, using double opt-in techniques. Otherwise, you're building a list that will never perform at maximum levels," says Jim Kukral with KowaBunga! Technologies, an affiliate marketing company. Double opt-in (also known as confirmed opt-in) is the practice of sending a confirmation email to the subscriber allowing them to verify their desire to join your list.
2. THE SUBJECT LINE IS KEY.
Thanks to spam and overcrowded inboxes, you have about two seconds to get the attention of the subscriber. Not only that, you have to consider what words will attract the reader but not attract spam filters. While words like "sex" and "pharmacy" are obvious candidates for spam filters. Even use of the word "free" will often get your message blocked. You have to find words and phrases that will get the user to take action, and the shorter the better. Subject lines no longer than six to seven words seem to work best. Kukral advises running your email and subject line through a spam checking service like Spam Assassin (spamassassin.apache.org).
3. PROVIDE A CALL TO ACTION.
"If your content is not written to cause an action of some type, you are probably wasting your time," says Kukral. "Sending email is an art. You can't just throw some copy together, hit send and hope it'll work."
4. DON’T OVER MAIL YOUR LIST.
There is no concrete answer to how often you should mail your list. However, you certainly don't want to over mail it. Once a month for most campaigns is sufficient, but you can possibly get away with more frequent mailings if your offer is substantive enough. Carefully monitor conversion data and open rates. If they drop off, maybe you are mailing too much. Of course, the converse is also true. Subscribers sometimes have a short memory. Mailing too infrequently may result in users unsubscribing, or worse, filing a spam report with their ISP.
5. HTML VS. TEXT ONLY.
This used to be a conversation worth having back in the day when not all email programs were HTML friendly. Today, it is almost a non-issue because most everyone can receive an HTML email. But, there is one item to consider. When sending HTML mail, don't enclose your entire sales message inside an image only. Always include at least some text. Some email programs don’t default to show /images/enewsletter. Google's popular Gmail program and Microsoft Entourage are two examples of this. Including text will guarantee the recipient gets at least the gist of your message.

With so much technology out there today, it's a wonder why medical personnel have such a difficult time accessing patients' medical records. Norman Eisenberg, the President of SGMS Corp, went through a three-month process to gather all of his medical records from various clinics and hospitals to have them in one central location. Once he had them all, he realized that the large folio he needed to contain them was too much. He knew there had to be a better way. That is how he came up with the idea to help solve this problem – Medical USB Flash Drive Wristbands. He markets them on his website www.sgmscorp.com, which is powered through IPOWER.
"My accountant recommended IPOWER because of his great experiences with them," Eisenberg explains. "It's been great so far because the prices are competitive and the people have always been very helpful." Eisenberg describes himself as not being a "techie" when it comes to website design and upkeep, but that is not a problem with IPOWER. "Even if they cannot answer a question on the spot, they will find the answer and get back to me as quickly as possible." This has helped the website evolve into what it is now.
