The Greater Seattle chapter of the YMCA is a large nonprofit organization with 13 local branches and an active email subscriber list of over 600,000. To house its email marketing operation, the organization adopted Salesforce Marketing Cloud (SFMC).

The Kinzie Marketing team is a group of email rock stars! They were a key marketing partner in the IDX rebrand. Julie and her team created 75+ emails and more, all while using best practices and giving great advice. The team is responsive and eager to help in all areas from concept and design, to journey builds, to performance reporting. I highly recommend Kinzie Marketing for every aspect of email marketing.

Julie’s email chops helped us grow from startup to industry leader. She wore many hats, but Julie’s true strength was in developing our email program, which SFMC recognized as innovative and best in class. They asked Julie to join their first midsize business advisory council and featured Avvo in one of their customer success videos. Pretty awesome. If you work with Julie, you’ll find out that she is pretty awesome, too.

We’ve been using Kinzie Marketing to run our email programming, including design, coding, data and analysis. They've improved our setup and integration with Salesforce, and have been a valuable resource for strategy and best practices.
