LEADING EMAIL MARKETING SERVICE AWEBER CELEBRATES 30,000 ACTIVE CUSTOMERS

SMBs seek reliable email delivery and prospect management, propelling AWeber Communications to record growth

Newtown, PA January 10, 2008 — AWeber Communications, a leading provider of permission-based email marketing solutions, announced today that it had surpassed 30,000 active customers, making it one of the largest such email service providers worldwide.

As more small and medium-sized businesses are turning to email to build lasting customer relationships, AWeber’s focus on customer support has helped the company attract and retain customers at a continuously increasing rate.

“Integral to our strong growth has been our USA-based Customer Solutions Team,” said AWeber founder and CEO Tom Kulzer. “Over 9 years of experience working with the small business community has shown us that by focusing on each individual customer’s success, we ultimately ensure our own success.”

Many customers come to the Newtown, PA company on the recommendation of friends and business associates, enabling AWeber to save on advertising costs and invest further in customer service and getting customers’ email newsletters delivered.

“With so much spam out there, it’s harder than ever for legitimate businesses to get their requested email newsletters and sales messages delivered,” Kulzer said. “As business owners struggle to get to readers’ inboxes on their own, they’re coming to professional opt-in email marketing services like ours to help them navigate the email deliverability landscape.”

“We have seen tremendous growth through word of mouth referrals,” he added. “The future looks very bright.”

Congratulations on reaching that goal and sharing it with the community. I had always wondered how big your company was - though the most important to me has always been the great service and your online help system. Keep it up !

Howdy Howdy… I am new to AWeber. I have been working very hard to get an online business up. I have learned so much; however, not as much as I would like. I look forward to working with AWeber, and I am certain it the answer to my prayers.
Thank you AWeber.

John,

Thanks for the congrats! You can rest assured that our customers solutions and online help will only be improved as time goes on.

Beth,

I’m glad to see you’ve been with us for so long! It’s funny to think that email is still relatively "young" when you consider what’s in store for the future.

AWeber is in it for the long haul. I’m sure you’ve noticed some enhancements to our service over the years, and we have some more exciting things on the horizon!

Hazel,

Have you joined our Education Team yet for one of our weekly "How to Get Started" training sessions?

I think you’d find it to be very helpful when you’re ready to get your email campaigns up and running.

Congratulations. I’ve been with you three years now. You’ve helped me build a robust business and I tell anyone who wants to know, how good you are. Many thanks for all your help (here’s to the next 30,000)

P.S. I just launched a little landing page that got 86% confirmed ‘opt in’……would you like me to write an article about how it works for this blog?

If their was no email marketing (Leads, followups) - their would be no internet business period! And aweber has helped me for quite a while now - congratulations! Nice to make half a million a month! Well deserved.

Congrats! I’ve have been a customer for several months. Your service is invaluable–gone are the days of sending out emails one at a time! I love the broadcast, automatic removal of people who unsubscribe as well as the follow up emails. I guess what I’m trying to say is that I love your service!

Congratulations on the milestone!

Celebration is for sure in order.

Even though there is 29,999 others partnering with aweber,
I sure don’t feel like just another number.

Great success guys!

You are only about 29,000 customers ahead of me.

What’s up with that?

Congrats and a job well done.

Let’s see… if I get a customer per day for the next 29,000 days…

Oh, never mind. That’s just too much work.

I think customer service may have a lot to do with this.
