CONSTANT CONTACT SERVES UP EMAIL MARKETING EXPERTISE AT THE MID-ATLANTIC FOOD, BEVERAGE AND LODGING EXPO

Hospitality and Business Experts Address Challenges Faced By Businesses at Leading Industry Trade Show

Baltimore, MD. - September 18, 2007

What: Constant Contact®, Inc., a leading provider of email marketing and online survey tools for small organizations, will be on hand this week at the Mid-Atlantic Food, Beverage and Lodging Expo taking place September 19-20, 2007, to share the power of email marketing with the more than 10,000 restaurants and hospitality businesses attending the event.

According to Constant Contact's 2006 Restaurant Business Outlook survey, the number one challenge U.S. restaurant and hospitality business owners face is attracting patrons during slower days or seasons.

Constant Contact provides an easy, affordable and highly effective way for restaurants and hospitality businesses to overcome this challenge and to build trust, show value, and create an on-going relationship that will turn prospects into loyal customers.

During the two-day event, Gina Watkins, DC Metro regional development director for Constant Contact, will be running SpeakUp!SM Email Marketing demonstrations at booth #286. Attendees will have the opportunity to speak with Gina and several other Constant Contact hospitality customers about how to attract customers while improving their bottom line.

Attendees who sign up for a 60-day free trial at the event will also receive a copy of Constant Contact's new Email Best Practices Workbook for free.

Who: Gina Watkins, DC Metro regional development director, Constant Contact

Constant Contact hospitality customers available to share their experiences at the event include:

Kelly Harman, President, A Spoonful of Sin
"As a marketing consultant and entrepreneur, one of the things I love about Constant Contact is the pre-made templates that I can customize easily for my needs. In a very short amount of time I can find the kind of template I want, customize it to my company or client's brand, and create exactly the kind of email I wanted to send. Plus, I love the reporting - it gives me all the information I need to follow up with interested leads and really target my messages to my audiences in a very strategic way; all for an incredibly low monthly cost!"

Dara Bunjon, Dara Does It - Creative Solutions for the Food Industry and co-author of YUM-Tasty Recipes from Culinary Greats
"I have been thrilled to death with Constant Contact and have been using it for my foodie newsletter, Dining Dish, for a couple of years, as well as for my clients. I love how they keep making it easier to use. Most important is knowing who is opening my newsletters, and who is clicking on what links so I know who is reading them and what is of interest to my audience."

Karen S. Justice, Executive Director, Maryland Tourism Education Foundation
"Our newsletter is being used to increase awareness as well as serve our mission, and has spurred inquiries about our training programs. For example, one school for the developmentally disabled and the Department of Juvenile Justice are engaging in our programs as a result of our coverage of the workforce challenges and shortages - plus we've gotten offers for volunteers and inquiries regarding registration for the upcoming events we cover in our newsletters."

Where: Booth #286
Baltimore Convention Center, Baltimore, Maryland

When: September 19-20, 2007, 11:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. ET daily
