Interactive Marketing Will Cannibalize Traditional Channels: Forrester 
There's bad news for those who sell through traditional marketing channels: Six in ten marketers surveyed by Forrester Research Inc. will increase their interactive marketing budgets by shifting funds from traditional media.
 
And direct mail was cited by more marketers - 40% -- than any other channel as being one to cut, outranking newspapers (35%), magazine (28%) and television (12%). 
 
Marketing Emails Expected to More Than Double in Five Years
In its latest study, Forrester Research projects that consumers will receive more than 9,000 email marketing messages a year by 2014.  That translates to about 25 messages a day, double the average of 10 to 12 people deal with today.  According to the study, spending on email marketing will hit $2 billion in five years, nearly double the projected 2009 spending of $1.2 billion.  Email is cheaper, faster and easier to measure than traditional creative advertising.  But that doesn't make it perfect.  The report, which surveyed 286 email marketers in the US and 3,730 US online consumers, also predicts marketers will waste $144 million on e-messages that never reach their primary targets because of poor list hygiene and mailing practices, as well as overzealous ISPs that group good messages with spam.
