What is CUR8 Connect?

CUR8 Connect is a powerful, flexible, cost-effective email management solution that streamlines marketing communications to your community. Because Connect integrates directly with your past projects and events, your audience and attendees are already set up to receive marketing emails—as long as they’ve individually opted in. Recipients can opt out of marketing emails at any time.

There’s no need to export contact information to another platform; you can send marketing emails immediately within CUR8.

CUR8 Connect offers a pay-as-you-go model, a feature-rich template system, and an easy-to-use dashboard. Connect enables organizations to engage their audience with minimal effort. It simplifies the creation and delivery of marketing campaigns, ensuring efficient and effective outreach. 

 

What is an Engagement?

An Engagement is a targeted marketing email that helps your organization connect with its audience—whether you’re sharing exciting updates, announcing a new initiative, or getting the word out about your program.

Email marketing is one of the most cost-effective ways to reach your community, and our platform makes it easy to develop a strategic email marketing plan and design effective messages for every stage of your organization's communication needs.
