This is good stuff.  American Apparel runs a Twitter promo to trade a special no strings offer for your email address.

They can send out promotions based on Country or Gender.  They can do a geographic message based on how far you are from a store based on your zip code.

And you can be sure they’ll send you a birthday greeting.  Everyone likes to hear Happy Birthday, even from a company they buy clothes from occasionally.

This is some pretty good stuff.  Love to see it.  Long live email marketing!

Feel free to send me examples of good or bad email campaigns you see.  We can all learn from the examples of others.
