A product born of a single idea...
It is not an exaggeration to say that on a stormy evening in Rome that the idea of ScanSend.Email was born: use a QR code to capture an email with perfect and lightning quick accuracy.
23 years of email marketing experience taught Jacob Halstead that businesses face major challenges in growing their email subscriber lists, and that there was no tool available for a business to capture an subscribers email address with 100% accuracy and minimal effort.
The small team at ScanSend.Email spent a year designing and testing the first version of the application, turning 2 decades of project management and solution design experience towards an engineering goal that seemed simple and yet did not exist: make subscribing a simple & delightful experience, not a chore to be abandoned.
23 years of email marketing expertise for some of the largest and recognized enterprise and retail brands in the US and globe gave us the engineering & design expertise to understand the challenges of modern omni-channel marketing.
Our deep experience with enterprise marketing web applications, designed for global scale to the highest performance and security specifications.
Two years of travel across Europe expanded our understanding of the challenges facing ecommerce and brick-and-mortar companies in a wide variety of cities and localities.
Designing and testing our products in the dynamic and challenging environments of European cities taught us to bring our design aspirations into contact with the demands of capturing the fleeting attention of millions of people on the go.
