Hey Tips & Tricks Team!
In testing the squeeze form, I discovered that it sends its own email. Now, my integration with Profollow (Aweber white label) is not yet working, so I don’t know if it is doing it this way because of the Profollow failure or not, but when it does send the email, it’s going straight to my junk mail folder every time.
Here is the flow I’d LIKE to achieve, if at all possible:
1. Site visitor subscribes with name and email through squeeze page form.
2. Squeeze page form directs them via Profollow to my “Almost there” page with video and written instructions on how to complete Profollow’s double optin process.
3. Profollow sends them the email with the confirmation link.
4. Subscriber clicks on the link and is taken to encrypted url (pay per view) page with viewable video and downloadable files.
Even writing this process, I can see a couple places where this would be difficult if not impossible to achieve. If the squeeze form and the Profollow double opt-in process HAVE to be two separate flows, then this is the MINIMUM I’d like to make happen:
1. Page visitor subscribes through squeeze form.
2. Squeeze form sends email through a better option (?) that doesn’t get treated as spam every time.
3. Squeeze form sends info to Profollow and Profollow sends them to Almost There page? I get a bit confused as to how these two email-driven processes work together. In fact, depending on how the squeeze form does what it does, I may need to upgrade the instructions here to direct the subscriber to the additional email from the squeeze form.
4. Squeeze form, independent of Profollow’s double-opt-in process, sends subscriber link to encrypted-url pay per view page. Similarly to #3, if the squeeze form and Profollow operate on two separate but concurrent processes, I’ll need to point the video viewer back to their inbox to complete the double opt-in.
I think much of my confusion stems from the fact that I have yet to get the squeeze form to work with Profollow. Perhaps once that’s taken care of some of the rest of this will become more obvious.
There may be another approach to consider. I do have eStore, eMember, and Affiliate Platform. I haven’t even “stripped the shrink wrap” off eMember and Affiliate Platform, so once I dig into them and their help files this may become obvious, but here’s my thought.
The visitor actually gets access to the pay per view site through a free eMember account that is connected to Profollow. It would be ideal if eMember cookies the member’s computer so that if they come back to the page, they’re automatically logged in and can see the content again. Can/does eMember do that?
Moreover, can a pay per view page be set up to cookie the viewer’s computer to allow multiple accesses to the ppv page from the same computer for some period of time or # of views?
Okay, lots of info here. Think I’ve swamped you enough for now.
Thanks for your help.
This is how the squeeze form works
1) Page visitor fills in the details in the squeeze form.
2) They get sent an email with the encrypted download (this is not Dependant on anything)
The following steps are optional (depends if the admin has setup an autoresponder integration):
3) The squeeze form adds the contact to the autresponder
4) The autoresponder sends in the double opt-in email
5) The user confirms the autoresponder signup
6) Autoresponder starts the email sequence for this list/campaign.
You seem to have an understanding that the squeeze form sends the email in a way that is making the email go to spam. FYI – there is only one way you can send email using WordPress. These two posts will explain some of these in detail:
Hi Amin,
Is there a way to have eStore *not* send the email? The subscriber has little incentive to complete the double opt-in if they already have the email…
Ideally I’d like to do this:
1) Page visitor fills in the details in the squeeze form.
2) The squeeze form adds the contact *and details from the form** to the autresponder
4) The autoresponder sends in the double opt-in email
5) The user confirms the autoresponder signup
6) Autoresponder send them a link that expires after 24 hours…
Is this workable?
Its easy for eStore to not send the email to the customer but how will the autoresponder send them a link that expires after 24 hours? Only eStore can create encrypted links (autoresponder can only send a hardcoded link that you specify in your followup emails)
