Email Template Automation

Goal: Create a program/Script that will, based on some user preferences/entries will automate the creation of an email that contains multiple sections/featured properties/content. The email will be in HTML and ready to be sent through an email server, ie: iContact or Exactarget. Details: Our company currently has thousands of products that need to be featured in an email send to each user. The program/script needs to have the ability to accept a data feed (xls or csv or txt) and based on criteria from the user and options, be able to generate the email with working URLs, Photos, verbiage, etc...). All information can be mapped to columns in the data files. Skills: Please note that this project requires someone who is able to present a solution and revise as required until the final is approved. The current template is in Excel format. This template will be provided so you get a general concept of the current layout. Ideally, I would like to have a more presentable GUI to work with rather than what is presented in Excel. You need to be an excel expert, PHP developer, HTML, Design, etc... Please do not bid if you do not have what is needed to complete the project. Each bidder, please submit similar previous work as well as what your take about how the final project will look. Thanks -Moneer
