- #11 The BlueHornet Email Maturity Model is the tool we use to help our clients understand where their email programs stand today and where they may have opportunity to move their subscribers up the value chain. The more engaged your subscribers, the more powerful they are to your brand. And the key to driving email program evolution is in the data. Ongoing collection and integration of multiple data sources is critical to improved targeting, meaningful segmentation and increased content relevance for your consumers. The more value they get from you, the more valuable they are for your program.
