REDWOOD CITY, CA--(Marketwire - August 20, 2008) - StrongMail Systems, Inc., the leading provider of on-premise solutions for marketing and transactional email, today announced the StrongMail® Message Studio Express Bundle as a new addition to its product line designed to address growing demand from small-to-midsize businesses (SMBs). Offered exclusively from StrongMail's growing network of value-added reseller partners, this cost-effective package is designed for businesses that send less than one million messages per month.

The StrongMail Message Studio Express Bundle is a powerful, turnkey package that combines all the hardware, software and services required for SMBs to take full control of their email programs and maximize results through improved delivery, personalization and management. This new solution bundle provides companies with a comprehensive and economical option for managing their email on-premise while also taking advantage of a predictable cost model that eliminates the costly CPM fees associated with ESPs. By expanding its product line for lower-volume senders, StrongMail now makes it possible for any size organization to own its email infrastructure.

    marketing solution

By offering this new package via StrongMail's fast-growing network of value-added resellers, StrongMail will be leveraging the sales resources of its strategic partners with extensive sales coverage throughout the United States. Lexnet Consulting Group, a StrongMail partner and CRM solution reseller, recently sold the StrongMail Message Studio Express Bundle to Lussori, an established retailer of fine jewelry and timepieces.

"At Lussori, we represent some of the world's most prestigious jewelry companies, and our email communications must reflect the same level of excellence that is associated with these luxury brands," said Lawrence Kosick, CEO of Lussori, Inc. "Lussori chose StrongMail because of the depth and breadth of its tool set, technology and analytics, which will enable us to create highly personalized messages that get delivered."
