James Bunting

As Director of Strategy and Research at the Communicator Corp, James is responsible for the global client services division and he is a member of the senior management team having been with the Communicator Corp since its incorporation in 2003. 



His passion is email. James loves helping people learn more about the channel and seeing how their knowledge and results develop over time.


As he has been sending email marketing campaigns since the late 1990’s James has developed a wide range of knowledge and experience, but he relishes the fact that as the channel continues to evolve it gives him a chance to continue to learn.



At the Communicator Corp James works hard to ensure that industry leading consultancy is provided to his clients and that he helps them achieve their objectives from the email channel. 



James is a passionate advocate of email and mobile marketing, and with his work at the Direct Marketing Association he is keen to see email becoming a truly integrated marketing channel.
