Out of the Inbox: ING Direct's Year-End Pitch for IRAs

image This is one of the better times of year to market tax-deferred accounts. ING Direct targets consumers plotting New Year resolutions with this intriguing headline:

------------------------------------------------
Subject: Is an IRA on your "to do" list?
From: saver@ingdirect.com
Received: 22 Dec 2009, 5:07 PM Pacific
-------------------------------------------------

There's not much to the message. No offer. No graphics. No tease. Just a solid message reiterating the potential tax benefits and emphasizing ING Direct's no-fee options.

Grade: B+
