Could Use Sendy Help

by elevatingyourbusiness
2 replies
I had Sendy and Amazon SES installed on my site by a fiveer for $40. (prices ranged fro $15 to $60 and Sendy charges $79). All went AOK.

Then I went back to the Sendy website for tutorials... there is 1.

Of course, based on my learning style (reading/visual) I can use a few others or directions in writing about how it all works.


I found these tutorials that were a little helpful and I wanted to post them here because I really don't see a lot on the Warrior Forum about Sendy resources:

-- Sending to multi-lists
-- How to use sendy
-- Using free Stamplia template It asks for a client ID, and when I asked sendy what this was, they emailed me back telling me to as stamplia -- if only I could find their contact us button!

-- An article about responsive editors https://easysendy.com/free-drag-and-...tor-for-sendy/

-- possible email creators https://sendy.co/forum/discussion/53...-sendy#Item_17


WHAT HELP I COULD USE

Does anyone know of a tutorial documentation for Sendy that I can read, follow the steps, and feel more comfortable about bringing my 2K subscribers, in various lists over?


Also, does anyone know if Sendy lists have a "clone" feature? I could really use it. It would allow me to create a list with auto responders, and then clone it to another brand or the same brand but with a different name.

    3 Cons of using Sendy

    As I use Sendy myself, with all it does not do, I am going to look into using Easy Sendy again. I have found 3 things that I need, that Sendy does not do. I'll be back to let you know which of these things Easy Sendy or other alternatives can "override".


    I would put these on my Con's list.


    1) If you want to have your subscribe box to say something other than what the Sendy form provides, then what I have to do is hire a programmer to set up an API subscribe form. I like to have an area on my firm that asks people what industry they're in and then have them choose from 3.

    2) To get the auto responder to work, Crons must be set to 1 minute. If you use a service like HostGator, their system only allows us to set it up using 15 minutes. Alternatives are VPS, crons system, moving to a different hosting service or (possibly) using Easy Sendy

    3) Also about the autoresonder system. It only works if someone subscribes using the subscribe form. IF you upload a CVS file, which you can do, it will not trigger the auto responder service. While I understand the thoughts behind this, there isn't an "override" button to use wen you do want to upload subscribers and have them get the auto responder. Someone has written a script to over ride this, but then again, a programmer would know what to do with it.
