If you have not already heard of them check out Mail Chimp – “MailChimp helps you design email newsletters, share them on social networks, integrate with services you already use, and track your results. It’s like your own personal publishing platform.”
I just designed my first email flyer and absolutely love their drag and drop design templates!!! Makes it easy for anyone to create email marketing. I am just starting to use this service but know I will be hooked. For anyone out there who feels the whole email marketing is an obstacle they don’t understand or feel intimidated by thoughts of having to jump over technical hurdles, no longer!! Above is a screen grab of my first email marketing created within 2 hours.
TIP: Gmail does not allow you to embed html or graphics so once you download your finished html template, reload it in a browser like Safari, (command A on the mac) select all, copy and then paste into Gmail and it will successfully layout before your eyes. You will want to reduce your screen width however to adjust for any white space around your layout as it will copy over. Super nifty and FREE marketing tool! I love it
