OS/MOsys NewsMailer puts web content into readers' hands instantaneously.

It's an old routine -- you post a story on
your site, and then you ready a coordinated
email campaign to push the same information out
to your community. Now there is no need to
create an email campaign to push a press
release of a news story out to your members,
donors, and supporters. The OS/MOsys NewsMailer
makes sure your community knows about the
content they rely on you to provide the minute
you post it. And by putting it right into their
inbox, it's more immediate than letting them
subscribe to an RSS feed and hoping they check
it regularly.
How does it
work?
The OS/MOsys NewsMailer lets
you flag each story with topic tags as you post
it to the site. Your constituents can subscribe
to as many of these topics as they wish, right
on their profile page on the site. When the
story is posted, an email is sent to the
subscribers to each relevant topic. The email
contains a short summary blurb, and a link
pulling the reader back to the entire article
on your site. The NewsMailer tracks all
click-thrus back to the article -- you can view
these stats in the website or through Members
Only.
What's best is that the whole
thing is completely effortless -- all you need
to do is flag the news story with topics as you
add it to the site. The actual extraction of
the list and the sending of the email are
completely automatic!
