Unique E-newsletter feature?

We use constant contact email service for our quarterly e-newsletter. Our company develops and sells a facility mgmt software solution that has an option for a multilingual model (they can get our software in a language other than English).

Does anyone know of a company/service like Constant Contact that has Multilingual as on option so I can send my newsletter with the option view it in a different language?

I imagine it will be my normal e-newsletter, but have a drop down box with available languages to choose from?

Do you know of any companies that provide this and if so, do you have any idea about costs?

Thanks in advance for you expertise!!

Advertising to 50+ segment

Hello,

I recently started a job as a media planner/buyer at a French agency. We have a client that is looking to advertise online to the 50+ segment in the US. However, I don't have all the tools to help me create my plan in the US. (They will invest in it soon.) What sites can you recommend I contact for this campaign to target 50+?

Agency Fees & New Accounts

I was considering putting together a "rate card" for our Ad/PR agency so that we could sort of have an a la carte menu for our clients. I can't seem to find any other agencies that do this - supposedly most hold this information confidential since every account is different. I am having trouble figuring out what to bill our clients for and they often ask how much does a a full page ad design cost, how much does this cost? I want to break it down for them while including profit.

Also, we just brought on a new PR Director that is bringing over some pretty hefty accounts and I want to be able to break down our fee structure in some way. They want a letter stating who we are as an Agency and what our policies are. Historically we do project fee or retainer based on the scope of work. Is it bad to do a rate card? Shall I have my account people track their hours? We have gone from really small to quite big in the matter of months so I need to be prepared and able to speak intelligently about our billing process. Agencies don't seem to list their rates. Any suggestions?

need good ideas

I'm the internet marketer of http://www.madeinchina.com. Great domain name! Right? It is a fast-growing B2B website for Chinese manufacturers and international buyers. Although Madeinchina wasn't put into the market until August last year, it's been famous in China. But we still need to do a lot to attract more overseas vistors. So I'd appreciate a lot if anybody here could give me some good ideas.

Lead Nurturing Product - Need Channels

I've begun a lead nurturing / drip marketing software / services company (SBA loan & all my savings). I install the lead nurturing software then create a USP, the marketing content, tracks, and touches for the various marketing / lead nurturing tracks a business needs. Takes about 10 days from start to finish. Very successful system. www.DripMarketingSystems.com

My question is this: I want to market through trusted business advisors (ad agencies, marketing consultants, business advisors, and the like). Basically, people who advise and assist businesses.

Are there better ways to get to these kinds of folks? I need to get up and selling quickly.

Shortcuts, please?
