USA vs. UK Email Marketing
10th Apr '13
The world of marketing is a very competitive one, and if you're just starting out in email marketing, it can be a bit overwhelming. If you 'email marketing' into Google, you'll be shown 1.7 billion results. So how do you know which company or service to use?
We are no longer restricted to using companies in our local town or city, we can go further afield, potentially overseas to find the perfect company. Especially with a service like email marketing, it can be sold from anywhere in the world, to anywhere in the world.
The main differences between using an email marketing service from the UK or USA, is the law surrounding the use of data. Here we will look at the different laws that apply, the battle is on: USA vs. UK email marketing.
Type of Email Messages
USA: The CAN-SPAM Act (Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography And Marketing Act of 2003) will cover commercial email messages that are used for advertisement or promotion of a commercial product or service.
UK: UK email marketing is covered by the EU Directive 2003/58/EC and covers all direct email marketing messages including charitable and political messages.
Permission/Opt-in requirement
USA: The CAN-SPAM Act states that commercial email can be sent to anyone, even without permission, as long as they're given the chance to opt-out.
Other types of email cannot be sent without permission. Your recipient needs to agree to receive the email before you send it. The breaking of this law may result in a hefty fine (up to $300 per email is some cases) or even imprisonment. However, if you buy data to be used on a B2B basis, this will be prohibited – you cannot send emails to a cold list in this scenario.
UK: Here in the UK, you can only send emails to certain people following a set criterion. The individual's details must have been obtained through a sale or negotiation, the message must relate to similar products offered by the sender, and the individual must have been given the opportunity to refuse marketing messages in future. However, when sending B2B emails, the sender just needs to include the ability to opt-out, no previous consent is required.
On a B2B basis, you can send to a bought list – sending to a cold list is acceptable in the UK.
USA: Every message must include opt-out instructions. The sender must honour the opt-out request within 10 days.
UK: Every message must include opt-out instructions. When an email address has been gathered as part of a transaction, further emails can be sent to the recipient, but must contain the option to opt-out.
Sender Identity
USA: The CAN-SPAM Act bans false or misleading header information. The 'From', 'To' and routing information must be accurate and must clearly identify the person who sent the email. The Act also prohibits deceptive subject headers and other ways of fraudulently sending spam.
UK: Disguising or concealing the identity of the sender is prohibited.
Subject lines/labelling
USA: Deceptive subject lines are prohibited. The content of the email must be explained in the subject line. If the email is an advertisement, this must be mentioned.
UK: Again, deceptive subject lines are prohibited.
Contact information/postal information
USA: A valid physical postal address is required to be sent within the email.
UK: Again, a valid physical postal address is required. Companies registered or operating within the EU need to state their company details on every electronic business communication sent from their organisation. Business email addresses must include: the full name of the company, place of registration, the registration number, the address of the registered office and the VAT number.
Checklist of legal requirements
There isn't a great deal of difference between the USA and UK's email marketing legalities, but it is important to know the difference and how to avoid the pitfalls. Here is a handy checklist to avoid a potential fine:
- Do I have prior explicit permissions from the recipient?
- Does the message have:
- A clear and accurate sender identity?
- An accurate subject line?
- Clear and easy opt out instructions?
- A physical postal address and company details?
- A valid return address?
- Have I tested that the subscription and un-subscription works?
- Have I tested the email before sending?
- Can I process replies and subscriber requests promptly?
NB, this information is intended to provide guidance only, and does not constitute professional advice.

If you are new to investing or looking for a new firm to help you with your trades, you need to spend time evaluating the options available to you before you make a decision. Since the type of trading company you use can have a great impact on your success, you need to make sure you have carefully considered all your choices.
One of the main decisions you will need to make is whether you need a full service brokerage or discount services will be sufficient for your needs. Much of this decision will be based on your knowledge and comfort level in handling trades on your own. If you are still new or feel uncertain about the trades you might be considering, you will need to select a full service brokerage rather than a discounted one.
A full service brokerage will be able to offer you a variety of services, which can make it easy for you to learn the process or continue to grow in knowledge. Many times, such a brokerage will be able to offer an assortment of trading platforms, which can make it easier for you to complete your online trades.
Educational services and research options can also be invaluable if you are just learning the process or still quite new at it. Many firms will help you by doing some of the research on the various options for you. This can make it easier for you to make a decision about trading these stocks. In addition, a full service broker will also have consultants and analysts who can help you by making recommendations about the steps you should take. This type of personal service can be invaluable at various stages of a trade.
While many long-term investors may think using a discount broker is the best option, even for them, this is not always the case. Often, having the input of professionals can help them in making the right decision for their success.
If you are looking at different broker firms, be sure you understand exactly what services they will provide and what limitations you will need to adhere to. You can see more at SogoTrade.

Cotswold mixed holding offers rare opportunity
Suzie Horne 05 April 2013
Almost 500 acres in the Cotswolds will hit the market next week and scarcity value puts a £7.7m price tag on Whalley and Puckham Farms.
The two farms at Whittington, close to Cheltenham, have been farmed as one by the same family since 1937. The mixed arable and pasture land has two farmhouses, two cottages and extensive offices and comes to the market for only the second time since 1880.
Retirement brings the holding to the market, with the dairy herd having been sold last year, said Savills' Douglas Mackellar. The farm is offered in three lots and while not excluding the possibility of a farmer buyer, Mr Mackellar thinks it most likely that residential interest will win the day in this sale.
Most of the buildings are at Whalley Farm, with supplementary buildings at Puckham.
The main farmhouse is Grade II listed and there is planning consent to replace the second farmhouse, built in the 1970s, with a 6,000sq ft dwelling.
Apart from an attractive location, the farm has several interesting features, including underground stone mines believed to have provided stone for repairing the Houses of Parliament and several prominent local buildings. The remains of a Roman villa have also been found on the farm.
Whalley Farm makes up the principal lot, with the listed six-bedroom farmhouse, two semi-detached two-bedroom cottages, a stone office barn conversion and a large range of dairy, livestock and arable buildings together with 373 acres of land.
The land here is split between almost 242 acres of arable/rotational pasture, 84 acres of permanent pasture and 23 acres of woodland.
The second lot, Puckham Farm, offers the modern house with a yard, two six-bay steel portal framed buildings and almost 33 acres of arable and pasture land.
The final lot is 89 acres of mainly arable land to the south of Whalley Farm. The farm is in the Entry Level Scheme and single farm payment entitlements are included in the guide price. (Savills 01242 548 020)

An ocean of plastic
By CSIRO
It's estimated that 80 million tons of plastics are produced globally each year. Because they are so durable, plastics require about 500 years to decompose in the ocean.
It's like plastic confetti has been sprinkled into every last inch of the ocean, and not in a festive way. This has a major impact on the world's marine ecosystems.
Some of the plastic pieces collected on board the recently retired research vessel, Southern Surveyor.
We've posted before about the National Marine Debris Survey, the first of its scale in the world. The Survey collects and analyses marine debris around the country, sampling rubbish at 100 kilometre intervals around Australia's 35,000 kilometre coastline.
The project will create a 'debris map', comparing the cleanup data, ocean currents and wildlife distribution patterns to see where rubbish goes and locate the types of rubbish most dangerous to our marine wildlife. The final report is due to be released later this year.
Initial results from the survey suggest there are 5.2 pieces of marine debris along our coastline for every person in Australia and so far, the survey has found that 74 per cent of the marine debris around our coastline are plastics.
Many microplastics are so tiny they're not visible to the naked eye. Image: MinuteEarth
Many of these plastics are bottles, bottle tops and shopping bags. But the story of plastics in our oceans doesn't end here. These larger pieces are fractured by weathering and break down into tiny pieces called microplastics, smaller than 5 mm and many not visible to the naked eye.
While these microplastics will float through our oceans for many years to come, their long-term environmental impacts are still being determined. Recent research suggests these tiny plastics are ingestible and toxic to plankton, tiny organisms right at the bottom of the food chain.
