ATLANTA, Sept. 11, 2008 -- Responding to customer interests and preferences enables companies to enhance brand loyalty. That's why low-fare airline SkyEurope partnered with email service provider Silverpop to incorporate customer insights from its two-million-strong email marketing database.

SkyEurope is one of Europe's fastest growing, low fare airlines, with scheduled services to 41 cities in 19 European countries. The airline has established a vibrant, long-term customer loyalty program enhanced by Silverpop's ability to respond to email recipients' preferences and actions. The airline company underwent a lengthy selection process, reviewing a number of email service providers, before selecting Silverpop for its suite of marketing execution tools that can easily manage SkyEurope's day-to-day customer email communications, enabling the airline to deliver highly relevant messages.

"The value of our customer database is enormous, but it's one thing to collect customer information and another to be able to use it effectively," said Steven Greenway, commercial director of SkyEurope. "Silverpop's expertise in email data management, deliverability and ISP relationships, along with its suite of cutting-edge, on-demand marketing tools, will enable us to take a sophisticated approach to meeting our customers' myriad preferences."

Silverpop enhances the ability to reach customers with one-to-one messaging.

The availability of rich amounts of customer insights enables the creation of highly personalized and targeted messages with greater ease.
