  Can I do a test email before  sending out my newsletter? top
 
Yes, we recommend you always do this. In the Campaign section, when you set up a new campaign, you will be asked if you would like to send a test email.

Paste in your own email address and you’ll automatically receive a test version of your newsletter so you can see how the email will look. This gives you a chance to make changes before sending it out to an entire contact list.

 
Can I design my own template and upload it to the site? top
 
Yes, you can do this very easily. After logging in, go to the Newsletter tab at the top, go to ADD NEW, then select ‘Upload your own newsletter’ and browse for the relevant file on your PC. The newsletter will then appear on the list on your Newsletter main page.
 
Can I edit the text and images within my custom designed newsletter? top
 
Yes you can.
 
 Can I see how many people open my newsletter? top
 
Yes. Once your campaign is up and running you can monitor the statistics, including how many people opened your email, in the Reports section.
 
 How does SendaNewsletter stop subscribers sending spam? top
 
We do everything possible to avoid abuse of the system. We have put in place alerts that spot any unusual behaviour and we carry out our own thorough checks. We also make sure that credit card details match the account details and ask users to validate and confirm email addresses. Each email sent through SendaNewsletter includes the users’ contact details and an unsubscribe link.

We take reports of abuse seriously and will terminate an account immediately if there’s any sign of misuse.

 
Can I collect the details of visitors to my website and add them automatically to one of my SendaNewsletter contact lists? top
 
Yes. Go to the Email List section and click on the GO TO LIST BUILDER tab.

The list builder will generate a code that you can copy and paste into your website. The code will create a form on your site inviting visitors to sign up to receive your newsletters. Their details will be collected and automatically added to the SendaNewsletter contact list of your choice.

 
 
  Can I upload and send out my own newsletter? top
 
Yes you can. You can also edit it, using our editor, if you want to change the text once you've uploaded it.

Just log in go to the Newsletter section, click on ADD NEW, then select the ‘Upload your own newsletter’ option.

On a technical note, we advise that you include the CSS (cascading style sheets) content within the newsletter file as calling the CSS information from a server would slow down the speed people can view the email in Outlook.

 
 
  What is a SendaNewletter partner? top
 
We offer a partnership scheme that allows companies or individuals to promote SendaNewsletter and, in return, receive commission. To find out more call us on 0845 838 6099 or email support@sendanewsletter.com.
 
  How do I import my contact lists? top
 
Log in and go to the Email List section. Click ADD and type in the name you want to give the new list and a description. Then click on IMPORT ADDITIONAL LIST.

This facility allows you to import a contact list saved in a spreadsheet package (eg Excel) in .csv format (comma delimited). Once you’ve imported the list you can change the order of the columns.

Try importing a list and you'll soon get the hang of it.

 
I need a copywriter. Where can I find one? top
 
If you’re struggling to write the text for your newsletters, or would just like someone to cast your eye over them before you send them out, one of our experienced copywriters can help. To find out more email us at support@sendanewsletter.com.

 
Can I send HTML or plain text emails? top
 
You can send either. When you log in go to Newsletter then ADD NEW and you will be given the choice of sending your emails as HTML or plain text.
 
How do I Import contacts from Outlook? top
 
You can import your contact list from Outlook into SendaNewsletter to form the basis of your mailing list. To find out how to do this, click here.
 
What do I need to use this tool? top

It helps if you have Notepad on your machine as pasting text from a Word document into Notepad cleans it up, making it easier to edit once you’ve pasted it into the SendaNewsletter editor.
