Subscriber Permissions and What You Need to
                Know Before You Send



  Spam is any email you send to someone who hasn’t
   given you their direct permission to contact them on
                  the topic of the email.

   EACH separate violation of the CAN-SPAM Act is
     subject to penalties of up to $16,000!



@Tendenci
Who Can You Email?


  People who have specifically signed up through your website
  For example, by ticking a checkbox (not checked by default) on your signup or
  sales form
  People who completed offline forms & indicated they wanted to be emailed
  Eg: By filling in a competition or survey form where they specifically agree to
  receive email
  People who gave you their business card and asked to receive email
  If someone gives you their business card and you have also explained to them
  that you will be in touch by email, you can contact them.
  They purchased something off you in the last 2 years
  By making a purchase from you they have provided their permission
  implicitly, although it is much better to explicitly ask them.


@Tendenci
Who Can’t You Email?


  Lists or email addresses received from a third party
  Includes any list you bought or rented, got from a partner or membership
  organization. No matter the claims of the source of this list, you cannot send
  email to them.
  Addresses you collected or "copy & pasted" from the Internet
  Even if they look like ideal customers for you, you can't email someone just
  because you found their address.
  Addresses you haven't emailed in the last 2 years
  Permission doesn't age well. Even if you got their permission legitimately,
  they won't remember giving it to you. If you haven't sent something to that
  address in the last 2 years, you can't start now.

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Presented February 16th, 2012 via Tendenci’s Free Online Web Trainings. Register for upcoming Tendenci trainings online at http://tendenci.com/events
  2. Your Organization Benefits: It’s Inexpensive – According to DMA email marketing brings in an average of $40.56 for every dollar spent on it. To compare this: Search marketing’s return is $22.24 Online display ads return is $19.72 Social media marketing’s return is $12.71 Mobile’s return is $10.51 (mobile is still a growing market and this number may dramatically shift up or down)2. It’s Effective - it moves the conversation about your business or information product to your subscribers’ inbox, a personal environment for them. 3. It’s Immediate 4. It’s MeasurableIt’s Easy Your Subscribers Want to Hear from You:* Let your subscribers know what is going on at your organization/business.* An email allows you to send your subscribers a call to action they can take immediately.* Your subscribers signed up and expect and want to hear what you are doing.
  3. Now we are going to go through the integration features we’ve developed between our Tendenci Content Management Software platform and Campaign Monitor’s email marketing software. I’ll demonstrate how to create and send email newsletters from your Tendenci Admin Dashboard.http://tendenci.com/tendenci-simplifies-email-marketing/
  4. Each new Tendenci website is set-up with the ability to integrate Campaign Monitor and access your email marketing dashboard from your website’s admin navigation menu. This allows you to quickly access your email marketing campaigns and templates directly from any page on their Tendenci website.
  5. When you click on “Campaign Monitor” on the Navigation Menu, you can access your Tendenci Newsletter Dashboard to add, sync, and view campaigns. Tendenci’s Integrated Newsletter Dashboard lets you view saved campaign drafts and sent campaigns with a link to view the newsletter you sent out with that campaign or saved drafts you haven’t finished editing and sent out yet. You are still on your Tendenci website – we bring your email campaigns to you from your Campaign Monitor account.
  6. Select “Add Campaign” to create a new email newsletter campaign. For our Tendenci 5.0 clients, we design integrated newsletter templates that allow them to select content and events from their Tendenci website based on type: Events, Job Listings, Website Pages, News Announcements, and Articles. For each content type, you can chose to include new website content added within 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, 30, 60, 90, 120 or ALL days and the content will automatically be added to your newsletter template.For Events on your website calendar – we have made it even easier to include specific date ranges based on months, days, and year. You can also select Event Types from your calendar to include in your email newsletter.
  7. After you select type and date ranges for content on the Tendenci newsletter dashboard, the next click takes you to your Tendenci-Campaign Monitor account where you can name the campaign, enter your subject line, and update the sender’s name and email addresses.
  8. Watch the Tendenci Email Newsletter Features video: http://tendenci.com/videos/tendenci-email-newsletter-features/ and see how fast you can create and send an email newsletter.
  9. You can download a PDF containing all the rules and regulations for complying with the law at: http://business.ftc.gov/documents/bus61-can-spam-act-compliance-guide-businessHere are the FTC’s Top Recommendations for Following the CAN-SPAM Act from their website:Don’t use false or misleading header information. Your “From,” “To,” “Reply-To,” and routing information – including the originating domain name and email address – must be accurate and identify the person or business who initiated the message.Don’t use deceptive subject lines. The subject line must accurately reflect the content of the message.Identify the message as an ad. The law gives you a lot of leeway in how to do this, but you must disclose clearly and conspicuously that your message is an advertisement.Tell recipients where you’re located. Your message must include your valid physical postal address. This can be your current street address, a post office box you’ve registered with the U.S. Postal Service, or a private mailbox you’ve registered with a commercial mail receiving agency established under Postal Service regulations.Tell recipients how to opt out of receiving future email from you. Your message must include a clear and conspicuous explanation of how the recipient can opt out of getting email from you in the future. Craft the notice in a way that’s easy for an ordinary person to recognize, read, and understand. Creative use of type size, color, and location can improve clarity. Give a return email address or another easy Internet-based way to allow people to communicate their choice to you. You may create a menu to allow a recipient to opt out of certain types of messages, but you must include the option to stop all commercial messages from you. Make sure your spam filter doesn’t block these opt-out requests.Honor opt-out requests promptly. Any opt-out mechanism you offer must be able to process opt-out requests for at least 30 days after you send your message. You must honor a recipient’s opt-out request within 10 business days. You can’t charge a fee, require the recipient to give you any personally identifying information beyond an email address, or make the recipient take any step other than sending a reply email or visiting a single page on an Internet website as a condition for honoring an opt-out request. Once people have told you they don’t want to receive more messages from you, you can’t sell or transfer their email addresses, even in the form of a mailing list. The only exception is that you may transfer the addresses to a company you’ve hired to help you comply with the CAN-SPAM Act.Monitor what others are doing on your behalf. The law makes clear that even if you hire another company to handle your email marketing, you can’t contract away your legal responsibility to comply with the law. Both the company whose product is promoted in the message and the company that actually sends the message may be held legally responsible.
  10. At Tendenci – we go a step above and beyond the law because we want your email marketing to succeed! Emailing someone you don’t have permission from isn’t going to be very happy with you or your organization.
  11. In order to send email newsletters through Tendenci, you will need to adhere to our guidelines. Find out more online and download a copy of our policies: http://tendenci.com/tendenci-policies-and-guidelines-for-sending-email-newsletters/
  12. Our Tendenci software is built to enable organizations to manage events and memberships all within their website, easily. When a new User Group or Membership Type is created on your Tendenci website – a new subscriber segment list is automatically created. When a new user or member is added to your website or added to a User Group or Membership type, they are instantly added to the corresponding subscriber segment list.
  13. Get to Know Each of Your SubscribersEach subscriber has their own profile page showing which campaigns they have opened, what links they click on, which lists they are on, and more so you can provide your subscribers with personalized newsletters and content.
  14. Segmentation FTWSegmented Lists enable you to better engage your subscribers with targeted messagesUse segmentation for things like:Sending product information based on a client’s interests and past purchasesSend your sponsors and donors a different email newsletter than your membersA segment is a subset of one of your existing subscriber lists. For example, instead of emailing everyone on your ‘Donations’ list, you might only want to send an email to the subscribers that have donated a certain amount or live in a certain state.Using Rules with Segments, you can divide up your subscribers based on who they are and what interests them, and customize the message you send in your newsletters to each segment. Segments can be used in lots of different ways to increase the effectiveness of your campaigns. Ideas for using segments:Send a special thank you offer to your old school members, who signed up before a certain date.A second chance offer to people who did not click through on your last campaignOffer special prices to frequent purchasersSend emails to people interested in certain topics
  15. Manage your suppression listYour suppression list ensures you never contact a person who has previously unsubscribed or bounced out of your subscriber lists. Whenever you add new subscribers, we'll automatically scrub it against this list. You can manage how unsubscribes are handled on a list-by-list basis by clicking on "Unsubscribe settings" for each list in your account.Create Autoresponders and drip campaigns: http://www.campaignmonitor.com/autoresponders/

  26. Open rates:What is an open rate? Open rates measure how many subscribers open your email newsletter. Calculated as a percentage of # of subscribers who opened your email divided by total subscribers that were sent the email.Not 100% accurate – text-only emails and clients with html viewing turned off will not be included.
  27. Other things to know about Open Rates: * The larger your subscriber list – typically the lower your open rate will be. * Associations like churches, sport teams and non-profits typically have higher open rates because their subscribers are passionate and emotionally involved.Specific niche topics will also typically have higher open rates than broader topics.
