17:25
I have it but don't know how touse it

17:28
No

17:29
Send out a newsletter once a month.

17:31
yep

17:32
yes

17:32
yes

17:37
Yes

19:06
yes

22:08
YES much easier.....

22:23
just needs to be the same order

23:01
Yes... so many

23:13
Your right Sharlene - Ive done it where is wasn’t in the same order and it was hard work correcting it all

23:41
Easy to sort the EXCEL sheet before copy paste

24:03
Yes i definitely will be doing that next time :)

24:06
Yes that is what I do!

24:10
into the same sequence

24:49
data integrity ... so important

25:44
OH YES Its happened to me... I received a warning

26:14
I imported and OLD data base ... people were not happy to be contacted

27:03
It is always tricky to know when to add someone and not add someone. Do you have any thoughts?

28:15
ahhh i must have missed that step

28:25
so do you recommend exporting the contacts from Mailchimp, clean it up and then import?>

29:26
Hi Trevor, most of my email contact, I ask if they would like to join my email group, I can either set up for them, or I provide the link in the email

29:49
Can I use Google Sheets rather than Excel for my list?

31:32
ask them to take the action to unsubscribe... most will not take action

31:46
Thanks Sharon. Would you please subscribe me to yours. trevorhayley@internode.on.net

32:17
Certainly Trevor :-)

37:20
how often is often?

37:42
are you allowed to send to two different groups (different because of how they came to you) to introduce the other side of your business that they may not be aware of?

39:07
I always pop myself on the list so I can see the end result even thou you can test before you send...

39:24
I do the same, Sharlene :-)

39:28
Me too

41:17
I always do the spam and spell check then send test messages to myself and 1 or 2 team members so they can read it before it goes out. Checking it reads well and looks good.

41:34
I use the same name as the Subject... easier for me to remember

42:18
what if I do not have a general email address

42:28
yes trust

43:11
Yes I am the brand

43:20
I just use my normal email address. I do make a point of thanking people when I receive a newsletter, and sometimes I get a thank you when I send out.

43:28
Im the brand as well

43:59
Subject line is key...

44:14
What can you come up with for a must open email?

44:16
Do you use Emoji’s much?

44:52
In the subject line

47:21
Agreed I’m sick of seeing the same heading in emails

48:01
ko

51:16
is this how we add a photo?

53:59
can youthen save that as a template to be consistant

55:03
You can replicate campaigns. Very powerful.

59:20
If I have a customer list from a previous role but they are my customers now, how do I articulate that list source in the copyright section?

59:36
Whats the best... day.. time

01:00:10
are you allowed to send to two different groups (different because of how they came to you) to introduce the other side of your business that they may not be aware of?

01:01:08
no - I have free and can

01:01:09
nup

01:01:10
yes now

01:01:14
it changed

01:01:16
mine is free and I schedule

01:01:34
Schedule only works on paid or legacy accounts

01:01:34
yes as an image

01:01:58
Sharlene when did u last schedule?

01:02:27
john what is a legacy account?

01:02:33
I don't schedule. Prefer to stay away from automation. It is the way my industry is.

01:03:21
If you have an account from before MailChimp changed then Schedule still works, but if you create a new free account there is no Schedule

01:04:00
weve had 1 from before but now it wont let usscedule

01:04:34
Yes John... that makes scene... I have a vey old account...

01:07:49
Any questions?

01:08:00
does all that have to be manual?

01:08:37
or is that an auto process (tagging the prospects)

01:08:48
Suggestions for low open rate - 20%

01:08:54
Thank you to Ivan for you expertise, and the Wendy for you positivity.

01:11:03
Thanks for all your comments and what sort of open rate do you aim for?

01:11:42
I get around 45%. Not too bad apparently. Emails go out monthly.

01:11:42
John - in some businesses, 20% OR would be a figure to die for.

01:13:21
I've been very fortunate with 50-70% rate :-) I provide monthly emails

01:13:35
where do we go for additional resource?

01:13:52
I have a sign up landing page on my website, in my email signature, and on Facebook page.

01:14:24
yes please

01:14:35
Great point Wendy.

01:14:44
Yes good point
