Setting up lists on WordPress using AWeber and Hana Code Insert

Email marketing continues to be one of the most effective and cost effective means for you as an auto dealer to communicate your message to an audience. The best way to improve upon the ROI of your email marketing is by instituting a double opt-in sign up process. By doing so you can expect to see your response rates increase to 20, 40, or even 60% or more.

Setting up a double opt-in mailing list on your blog or website is not the most difficult thing to do, but there are some details to consider as well as some techniques that can be applied to enhance the customer experience. This includes things like having verification pages, auto responses, subject lines, etc.

Each of these elements plays an important role in initiating the customer experience so you want to be sure that the process and information you prepare is accurate, in tact, and effective. These are the technicalities behind permission-based email marketing that have a lasting effect for people, so it is worth learning this and putting in the time required.

In this week’s List Builder webinar we will be covering some of the basics for setting up a double opt-in sign up process as described. In this webinar we complete the following exercises:

• Create verification pages on your blog
• Configure your list in AWeber
• Apply form code using Hana Code Insert
• Testing the process

Clearly you can see the added training in here for use of AWeber and Hana Code Insert. AWeber is list-building software that we use; Hana Code Insert is a WordPress plug-in that we have standard on our WPMU systems.

Theoretically we could hold a webinar for each of these three processes because they can be so involved, but in this instance we will be glossing over all three to provide comprehensive coverage of the entire double opt-in process.

Join us Thursday December 17 at 11:30 am EST for this extensive and highly technical live GoToWebinar.
