Ellie Mae, Inc. Research Report

On July 17, 2013, Ellie Mae, Inc. (Ellie Mae) released its Origination Insight Report for June 2013. According to the Company, the report draws its data and insights from a robust sampling of the significant volume of loan applications that flow through the Company's Encompass360 mortgage management software and the Ellie Mae Network. "In June, the mix of refinance-to-purchase loans continued to rebalance as higher rates made refinancing less attractive and the prospect of higher home prices and potentially higher interest may have brought more buyers to the closing table," said Jonathan Corr, President and CEO of Ellie Mae. "Closed purchase loans accounted for 49% of the volume in June 2013, the highest level since we began tracking in August 2011."

j2 Global, Inc. Research Report

On July 24, 2013, j2 Global, Inc. (j2 Global) released the results of a national survey of consumers, commissioned by Campaigner, the Company's CRM and email marketing brand. The survey revealed that over 37% of consumers were undecided about how mobile marketing emails impact them, and only about 6% of respondents made a purchase directly from a mobile device as a result of a promotion email received on that device. The survey was conducted in December 2012 and it showed that only 14.3% of respondents used mobile marketing emails to save money, get great deals, and find unique items. In June 2013, Juniper Research announced its projection that the value of mobile commerce transactions conducted via mobile handsets and tablets will exceed $3.2 trillion in 2017. The projections suggested that there is a huge mobile commerce opportunity for retailers and consumers. However, according to j2 Global, the Campaigner's survey suggested that poor mobile design and overloading potential customers with emails is thwarting retailers' success and frustrating consumers to the point of deleting mobile emails outright. To address these issues, Campaigner introduced responsive design capabilities, featuring mobile-optimized email templates that enable customers to easily view, read, and take action on the message or promotion.
