Sending leads to two autoresponders at once

I could use some suggestions with this one....

Can anyone share (brainstorm here) how I might have one squeeze page that sends generated leads to two different autoresponders at once?

[The reason would take too long to explain in detail - the funnel requires a two pronged approach.]

Have you done this?
How could you do it?

Thanks for any ideas.

Happy New Year to all,
Dave

    Just duplicate the list with a different name in a different campaign, same AR?

      There are a couple of issues here:

      1. Assuming the the autoresponders are different scripts or from different providers, they will require differently named form fields and use their own form processing script.

      2. When an HTML form is submitted, it can be processed by only one script.

      The way I would set this up would be to have a simple script written in PHP that processes the form when submitted.

      This script maps the entered field names to the field names required by the two autoresponders then submits separate POST requests to each of those autoresponders' form processing scripts with the required form fields.

      It's a trivial task for any programmer.

      Cheers,

        Thanks for this great idea.

        Unfortunately, the funnel leads to two different products that are related and one has legal requirements that necessitate a separate database that is not shared. More than
        that I won't say here.

        best,

      no, unfortunately, two differing autoresponders at two different places.

    ...or just use AutoResponse Plus which allows you to add a subscriber to two autoresponders from one form

    Hi Dave

    My solution about the intermediate script will still work in that scenario because the script doesn't store the data in a database - it simply reads the form then shoots off subscription requests to the two autoresponders which, of course, store the data in their own separate databases.

    Cheers,

    I like your answer neil and it does work but with one draw back, the IP of the server gets tracked instead of the IP of the user.

    The only way i can think that it will work is by using javascript to submit all the forms at the same time of the first form beings submitted and also using the value field to name the different field names.

    But i think i would need some sample code to test this out

    I think Neil's Idea will work and implemented so both the ip's get tracked, Its a script and I have used scripts made for me to track the two ip's at once also.

    But if the other forms are getting submitted server side and not user side, then the servers ip gets tracked does'nt it?

    I tried Neil's approach once and Aweber someone picked it up and automatically enabled the double opt-in message for those "duplicated" leads, even though I had it turned off in my account.

    You can save their IP address and place it into the hidden form field so it submits their IP address instead of the servers.
