Massive 2007, Canada’s largest technology show, is coming to Vancouver March 28th at the Vancouver Exhibition & Convention Centre and Kinetix will be there!

Massive connects you with new technologies that can benefit your company in an inviting, jargon-free environment. Enabling your company with technology often means simply knowing what’s available and being empowered to use it. That’s where we come in.

Drop by our booth to pick up your copy of the 2006 Canadian Email Marketing Trends Report – our first annual study of email marketing trends and response patterns focusing exclusively on Canadian lists. We’ll be releasing the first copies of this report at the show.

It’s hard to believe we’ve rounded the corner to the final week before Christmas. This year, for the first time ever, I’ve joined the throng of panic-stricken fools who have yet to start our holiday buying. And what else is there for a crowd-averse computer geek to do in the dwindling shopping days before Christmas but avoid the mall and muse about the year that is just about to pass?

2006 has been a banner year for online marketing. The industry has rebounded with vigour as companies of all sizes jumped on board the integrated marketing bandwagon. It feels a lot like 1999, but much less tenuous. My prediction for 2007 – that the online marketing boom of 2006 is really just the beginning of a real paradigm shift in the entire marketing industry.

Wow - what a week! It’s amazing what a foot of snow can do.

Okay, so if you live in Eastern Canada, you’re probably laughing hysterically at us poor, snow challenged Vancouverites. In fact, if you live anywhere BUT the Southern West Coast, the spectacle of us Lower Mainlanders struggling in ankle deep snow has likely been the cause of a giggle or two this past week. But see, the thing is, our snow is wet. Very wet. Which means heavy (ergo broken trees and downed power lines) and slippy - think hockey rink 5 seconds after the Zamboni drives off the ice. And, because we only really have snow for 10 minutes every 10 years or so, nobody has even heard of such a thing as snow tires or a block heater.

All of which is a long, drawn out apology for disappearing last week. Many of our team couldn’t make it into the office due to transit delays and other weather related challenges. So we worked remotely, focusing exclusively on client requirements (and perhaps a snowball fight or two). We’re back in full force this week though and with lots of interesting tidbits to help you optimize your email campaigns throughout the holiday season.

Its that time of year again - the air is getting colder, the trees are turning orange, and the ghosts are out in mass at Playland. Fright Night is back With its return is a spooky new contest designed and developed by the team at Kinetix Media. Using the latest eMarketing technologies, Kinetix has developed a Halloween themed micro site paired with a ghoulishly skinned newsletter.

Try your luck by entering below – the winner will receive 2 one-day adult ski passes for Whistler/Blackcomb, 4 Coke Blak T-Shirts, and 2 cases of Coke Blak. Best of all, you can earn extra entries by telling your friends!

The contest is now closed.
