I am in the middle of creating my Invite to E-Newsletter Campaign, however I am not 100% certain of what is the best way to do it.
So far I have done it so that I will tag them with the Invite to E-Newsletter which triggers a sequence, that Sequence then has an email and in that email it has a button they click that says Yes Please Sign me up! it takes them to a landing page which they then fill out a Form which gives them the Newsletter tag.
Every month I will then create a campaign and the tag will be the newsletter tag to start the sequence.
I am not to confident in this plan, as I feel like there is a better way around it and would like your opinions and your ideas/tips on what you have done for your campaign.
You are sending this email to contacts that are already in your app, correct?
So they get an email to click a button to then have to also fill out a form to get the tag?
Now if you are doing that for data capture purposes etc then cool. However you could simply have a button that says ‘Sign me up’ which gives the tag, and the page you send them to is simply a page that reads thanks for signing up
thanks for the response, however can you please explain how to do that? As I have tried using a button but I cannot find any way to make the button a tag. or do i need to use email legacy to make the button a tag?
Going to go through a few things here, just to make sure we’re on the same page.
So firstly in the email builder you can drag out the button object.
For a button to work it must have an action assigned to it. If you simply want people to be able to click it to say ‘yes’ to something then what I would do is make a landing page with no form on it (so no submission required) - I refer to these as splash pages.
Now you have a URL for the button, place it in the dropdown on the left hand side in the Button Link choosing URL as the option.
As you can see there is a tag icon below the URL, simply put into there the tag you want people to gain if they click the button.
