Let’s See How Far We’ve Come

This year is almost history, but we didn’t want to let it pass by without taking the opportunity to thank you for helping make it a great one. While we look forward to sharing even more tips and information in the future, we wanted to touch base on just some of the changes we’ve made to our products in the last 12 months.

Contacts: Slicker and Smoother

• Now you can search every contact detail, see more information right off the bat, and sort to your heart’s content.
• Open reports are more flexible, allowing you to see unique opens or every time an individual contact opens your email — your choice!
• Adding contacts is even easier with a more intuitive flow and a permission reminder that only checks in with you every 90 days.
• The brand new Text-to-Join feature gives you another tool for encouraging people to subscribe to your list.
  

Social Media and Email: Great Tastes that Taste Great Together

• Across the board we’ve given you buttons to insert so you can promote your Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, or Flickr accounts in your emails and event invitations.
• Sharing those emails and invitations to your favorite social media network is now a snap with Simple Share.
  

Event Marketing: Expanding and Refining

• We’ve given you more ways to promote your upcoming events, including a widget for your website and a way to collect registrations through your Facebook Page.
• Now you can ask for donations through an event invitation, allow the purchase of different items or offer options, and show potential registrants who has already signed up to attend.
• You have more control than ever to delete events, update registrant and guest details, and even remove cancelled guests from your event registration list.
• Plus, you can check in your registrants with ease using your iPhone or Android phone with the Event Check-in app.
  

Email Marketing: Giving You More

• We’ve made adding an image link to your video or content from your blogs simple.
• The template picker has been revamped to make it searchable and easier to browse.
• There are more options for you when you add a link, insert an image, or pick a color.
  

We hope you’ve enjoyed this past year as much as we have. From all of us, we wish you the happiest, merriest, and best of the holiday season!
