Improve the Email Marketing categories.
Email marketing is big business on PPH, but the jobs fall between the cracks.
Currently when creating a job, the category is under Marketing & PR > Email marketing.
BUT, what if someone wants an Email PSD designed? Well that's Design... What if they want A PSD coded into HTML? Well that's web development. A template on Mailchimp or some help actually sending? Probably Marketing and PR.
The jobs are spread across categories and hard to keep track of. Buyers list them in all kinds of random places I've tried to make an effective search filter to pick up Email coding jobs, but just can't get one that works. I have 3 currently, and am still not getting good results.
Due to the scale of Email marketing, i think it needs its own section, with sub-sections for Campaign management, Template design, and HTML development (for example), OR maybe an email marketing section under Marketing & PR, Web development, and Design. This would GREATLY improve the experience for both buyers and sellers. Bare in mind that the Email industry is nearly as big as the web design industry and, in parts, requires a completely different skill set.
At least then we'd have some sort of chance of finding the jobs, or using the search / notifications effectively. My "suggested jobs for you" is utterly useless due to not being able to set up the right searches, and none of the jobs in there are ever the ones i want to bid on.
Thanks for listening!!
