Great video.Really helpful. But I warn against using Mailer Lite.
I think that the original Mailer Lite was great, uncomplicated and it did everything I wanted.
Unfortunately, this month they closed Mailer Lite Classic and I had to transfer my account to the new version.
The transfer didn't work.
I spent hours struggling with it and then when I got past the useless AI help assistant and spent a long while with their helpful support member, only then on the final completion of my email campaign set up did I see a yellow warning that no longer was my free account available in the new version.
If there is one thing I hate is setting up systems that claim to be free, spending hours doing it and finding I am trapped into spending money.
I have no problem with paying when I get a decent-sized list but this is no way to run a business.
I say don't use Mailer Lite. It isn't what it used to be at all.
Excellent tutorial! Very complete. I did not see anything on a second send to non-openers. I really like that feature on my current email marketing platform.
Glad it was helpful! You are able to resend emails to unopened. More details here: www.mailerlite.com/features/auto-resend
Thank you for making such a clear and easy-to-follow tutorial.
I'm so glad it was helpful!

best guide i found! Thank you!
I'm so glad it was helpful!
@@witandwire Do you have a video on how you use these sites or forms to collect emails. or maby i didnt get that, im a beginner to all this. I would love to post a link from my Instagram that directs them to a page where they can sign up for emails. is that possible? Thank you again!
@@witandwire im a beginner so its a bit overwhelming. Im not sure if i missed it, but if i wanted to post a link to my Instagram, for my site/page that ive now created, to have people register for emails, is that possible?
Your video was wonderful. Thank you for sharing it.
I'm glad it was helpful!

0:06 I think I can do it and it would supply the power to run the motor by reavoloin at a time be supplied by the time you have the motor run Fr a turn at a time so it supplies the power on its own by the distributor of power to motor
This is the clearest email marketing tutorial I've come across so far although all I needed was learn how to automate my first welcome email and integrate to my WP website.
Just a quick question, since I'm still testing my product before launching, I only want to grab subscribers' emails to put on waitlist first. Is it ok to temporarily end my automation workflow with just the email template? Then maybe once I'm ready to launch I'll add more workflow/ triggers? Thank you!
That’s great to hear, thank you! I’m so glad the tutorial was helpful :)
And great question. There are a few different ways you could do it, and I think what you’re describing would work. You could also just make sure that they’re in the same Group so you could email them in the future.
Hopefully that makes sense, although I know it’s a bit TMI for RUclips. If curious, I do talk more about waitlist strategies in my full course Email Engines. (Ironically, it’s currently a waitlist since it’s reopening next month!) witandwire.com/email-engines
Hi Melissa, Great video! Did you film the "talking head" intro with your iPhone or another camera ? I like the wide angle where you can see the desk and zoom in while talking.
Thank you! This is the camera I use for my RUclips videos, and the zoom effect is done in post-production (editing): amzn.to/3FOuBeb
@@witandwire The same quality (and editing) can be done with a CANON POWER-SHOT GTX MARK II?🤔 I have that camera for long ago for just personal purposes. Can you do a tutorial about the set-up you are currently using please? What lighting are you using please, and What affordable you recommend for a Beginner Course Creator. Thanks so much!🙏
Excellent tutorial Melisa . Wouldn't it be better to host the PDF's in Google Drive?
Thank you! And that is another good option, definitely.
Thanks for the information Melissa. Any info on Payhip?
You’re welcome! I haven’t personally tested Payhip, but I’m familiar with them. So I can’t offer any insights, but at first glance, they don’t look cheaper or better than any of the recommendations in our updated picks in our free Course Creation Toolkit: witandwire.com/coursetoolkit-youtube
@@witandwire Thanks
Payhip is very different. They have a "free forever" plan that charges a percentage sale/transaction. They have paid plans that charge less per sale than the free plan. They are not an email marketing provide, however they do have a Mailerlite integration; along with other email marketing providers.
Great video Melisa, thank you. I have a question. I have been using the free plan which seems not to have any type of support. I am finding that some of the automations that I have set up are not consistently sending the correct email. The automation is sending an email (that I never created) asking the recipient to confirm their email address to subscribe to a "newsletter". I never created a automation for a newsletter. Have you seen this type of issues? Thank you.
Thank you! And you're right, the ability to contact support email/ chat is only available for paid plan members. It does sound like a technical issue, so the best we can do is refer you to the support articles on automation:

Team Wit & Wire
Thank you for the detailed guide!! Say, how many signup forms are included in the free plan? =)
Up to 1,000 subscribers is included on the free plan.
@@witandwire I meant the forms you create either as pop-ups or to embed them =) Is there a limit to how many you can create in the free plan? Thanks again!
@@petraenglischcoach you can create an unlimited amount of forms and popups on the free plan!
I’m in process of getting started as an Amazon KDP author. What aspects of that are considered affiliate marketing? For example, could I link to my KDP author page or a published book on Amazon?
Great question. Although I’m not an expert on Amazon KDP, an affiliate link is any link to an external product or service where you are eligible to earn commission. If you join the Amazon Affiliate program, then you would be eligible to promote most products on Amazon, including books.
If I could give you 2 thumbs up, I would 😊
Wow, thank you!
I still don't understand. How will the people reach to your landing page if you don't have a website of your own
Just like driving traffic to a website, you’d need to drive traffic to your landing page. To oversimplify, the most common strategies include organic, paid, partnership, and outbound marketing.
Team Wit & Wire
Just looking at Mailerlite, I am confused. They say affiliate marketing is not allowed but affiliate links are allowed, do you know what the difference is between the two?
Agree, it’s very confusing. I actually feel similar, where I don’t feel 100% clear on the difference. (I tried doing the research and still ended up unsure.)
I genuinely don’t know the answer, but would love to know if anyone has more insight.
Hello I saw that as a Mailerlite user that I won’t be able to use my Gmail account as the sender. What is the best place to get a email domain name? I have a domain name already but I need an email domain name
Great question. It depends where you purchased your domain and how you’ve built your website, so I’d recommend starting with the platform you used to purchase your domain to see if they offer email services. ( For example, I purchased my domain and set up my custom email addresses through Namecheap: witandwire.com/namecheap )
- Team Wit & Wire
I have my Domain with Namecheap as well. But I’m still a little confused on how I use it with Mailerlite. I know it’s easy for some but it’s not making sense to me.
So a campaign is basically a email right?
Good question! An email campaign is one email (or a series of emails) sent to achieve a specific goal for the marketer.
hey how do i add an unsubscribe link to the header? thanks
Great question!
We found this article that might be helpful: www.mailerlite.com/help/how-to-add-an-additional-unsubscribe-link-to-a-newsletter
We hope this helps,

is there a free platform that allows you to give away free PDFs and Ebooks?
Yes, most email marketing platforms (including Mailerlite) will allow you to share free PDFs or eBooks. They’re often called lead magnets in the world of email marketing.
You don't pause within your explanation. Makes me sleep
Thanks for the feedback.
