Reportlinker Adds Synthetic Lubricants & Functional Fluids

NEW YORK, March 24 /PRNewswire/ — Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:

Synthetic Lubricants & Functional Fluids

http://www.reportlinker.com/p0183449/Synthetic-Lubricants–Functional-Fluids.html

US demand to grow more than 3% yearly through 2013

US demand for synthetic lubricants and functional fluids will rise more than three percent per year to $4.8 billion in 2013, with growth rising at an even faster pace in volume terms to reach 520 million gallons. Engine oils and hydraulic and transmission fluids will experience the fastest gains as synthetics finally begin to penetrate the conservative medium- and heavy-duty truck market, and as greater new vehicle lubricant performance requirements and growing consumer acceptance further expand synthetics’ share of the light vehicle market. While engine oils and hydraulic and transmission fluids will achieve relatively strong growth going forward, other types of synthetic fluids are expected to see a slow decline in demand through 2013, largely as a result of declining average fluid prices.

Medium-, heavy-duty truck market to see fastest gains

The largest market for synthetic lubricants and functional fluids is light vehicles. This reflects not only consumer uptake of engine oils and transmission fluids, but also the universally synthetic nature of antifreeze, brake and deicing (windshield wiper) fluids. Synthetic fluid demand in light vehicles will continue to grow due both to increasing lubricant performance requirements, and growing consumer acceptance of synthetics as a valuable part of their preventative maintenance programs. Despite gains by synthetics in engine oils and transmission fluids, long term industry trends toward extended engine coolant flush intervals, and the use of fill-for-life radiator and coolant systems, will result in a continuing decline in antifreeze volume demand. The fastest growing market for synthetic fluids will be the medium- and heavyduty truck market. Increasingly stringent engine specifications, as well as a move by many engine manufacturers to specify low viscosity engine oils for their 2010 emissions-compliant engines, will finally lead many fleet operators to evaluate and use synthetic engine oils and hydraulic and transmission fluids. Synthetics will benefit from their better performance under load in low viscosity formulations, as well as from the reduced maintenance and downtime costs that result from synthetics’ extended drain intervals. The latter will be increasingly important to fleet operators looking to cut costs as a result of the 2008/2009 recession, and subsequent slow recovery.

Group III oils, polyalphaolefins to be fastest growing types

Reflecting their heavy use in engine oils and hydraulic and transmission fluids, Group III base oils and polyalphaolefins will be the fastest growing synthetic chemicals, with esters also achieving positive value growth through 2013. Declining average prices will hurt value demand for silicones and aromatics going forward, though demand will remain steady on a volume basis. From a product standpoint, the greatest declines will be in heat transfer and metalworking fluids. In addition to declining antifreeze demand in vehicle applications, greater use of fill-for-life coolant systems in industrial equipment — as well as efforts by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to limit the run-off of airplane deicing fluids at airports — will contribute to falling heat transfer fluid demand. Synthetic metalworking fluid demand will suffer from increasing substitution of bio-based fluids for synthetics, particularly in metal removal applications, to address worker safety concerns related to the inhalation of volatilized metalworking fluids.

Study coverage

Synthetic Lubricants & Functional Fluids, a new industry study, presents historical demand data (1998, 2003 and 2008) plus forecasts for 2013 and 2018 by material, product and market. The study also considers market environment factors, details industry structure, evaluates company market share and profiles 25 US industry competitors.

3 Mistakes That Most Businesses Make With Email Marketing

Email marketing is considered to be the best way for any business to stay in touch with its customers without spending a lot of money. The only disadvantage of using email marketing in your business is that a lot of people get thousands of email every day.

Today more and more businesses are going about the email marketing in the wrong way and in fact it could really hurt their reputation as well as selling for their business. Below there are 3 mistakes that are considered very common for the email marketing and how to avoid them in your email marketing campaign.

– Sending ‘purchase by product’ emails

Today a lot of people receive hundreds of specials, offers and discounts every day. In fact, people have the time to look at the most relevant ones. If you are looking to purchase a product that a company sells right there, you will look at it. In other case you will delete it.

Though it does not help with potential customers, it does not do a lot to build relationships with them. Such companies are not building any connection with you other than just telling you that they want you to purchase their products. In order to build really trusted relationships with your potential customers you have to educate them, provide them with the information that will be interested for them as well as useful.

– Not mailing enough

If you send your emails to your customers once in some months, for sure it is not enough.

Even if you have some great product to sell to your customers, but you send your email rarely, then you could be marked as a spammer because your readers might forget about you if they do not hear from your for a long time. In fact we all meet some new people every day as well as we buy products from different companies every month. Thus it is very difficult to remember all of them unless they stand out and try to build some relationship with us.

If your customers do not hear from you every month, then you lose about 10 per cent of your buying influence. You have to make sure that your both existing and potential customers always remember who you are and what you can offer them.

At least once a month you have to contact them. As well you have to be sure that you send them really valuable information, so they will see the importance of your emails.

– Adding absolutely everyone to a list

Regardless the reason, but you have never to add someone to your list just because you have such an opportunity. It is a proved way to spoil your reputation and become a spammer. You have to add to your list only those people who are really interested in the information you can offer.

In case you are looking for newsletter template – go to this web site. This is the place where you can see different newsletter templates and choose the ones that fit you better.

And a final piece of advice – today the Internet technologies give you a truly unique chance to choose exactly what you want at the best terms which are available on the market. Strange, but most of the people don’t use this opportunity. In real practice it means that you should use all the tools of today to get the information that you need.

Search Google or other search engines. Visit social networks and check the accounts that are relevant to your topic. Go to the niche forums and participate in the discussion. All this will help you to build up a true vision of this market. Thus, giving you a real chance to make a smart and nicely balanced decision.

How To Create A Solid Email Newsletter Campaign

Email marketing has been round for just some time, but the way it is approached today is different. In the past, a company would receive an email list and blow out bargains and coupons with flashy titles in order to attract attention. And in fact, it is called junk mail. Today in order to get email marketing success, you cannot and should not even consider using junk mail. What is the difference between mail and junk mail? In fact, everyone has absolutely various standards, but there are some tips in order to keep your mailing list happy.

– You have to limit the number of your emails

You do not have to overload your target audience. The greatest mistake that a lot of marketer did in the past is sending too any emails. Absolutely every email has had some useful information, but people are usually turned away from too many emails. As well it depends on the particular situation. If you advertise a daily email for your readers who signed up for it, then they surely expect to hear from your every day.

– You have to include some useful and valuable information in your email

Valuable information is considered to be very important for a successful campaign. It is the basis of the whole campaign. After all the main reason why people have signed up for your email is to receive some information that could be used by them. Unfortunately, people could forget about it. You have to constantly provide people with some useful information in your emails.

– Your emails have to be simple and short

The other great mistake that a lot of internet marketers do is making their email newsletters too long. As well it could depend on certain people’s standards or what it is regarding, but in any case you have to keep it reasonable. When people receive long emails they are most likely not read them at all. It is more valuable to send sorter email with high quality content rather than long one.

– You have to include hyper links back to your website

Quite an important part of your email marketing is generating more attention and web traffic to your website. Adding hyper links is an easy and effective way for people to click and go to your website. In this way, you could keep email newsletters short and offer some more useful and valuable information to your website visitors.

– The process of signing up and signing out has to be easy one

You have to make your email list easy to sign up and sign out. Even if your reader no longer wants to receive your information you have to respect this wish and keep it smooth.

In case you are looking for newsletter template – go to this web site. This is the place where you can see different newsletter templates and choose the ones that fit you better.

And some general tips – today the web technologies give you a really unique chance to choose exactly what you require at the best terms which are available on the market. Strange, but most of the people don’t use this opportunity. In real life it means that you must use all the tools of today to get the information that you need.

Search Google or other search engines. Visit social networks and check the accounts that are relevant to your topic. Go to the niche forums and join the online discussion. All this will help you to build up a true vision of this market. Thus, giving you a real opportunity to make a wise and nicely balanced decision.
