Long time sendy user. This is the best video on Sendy training that I've viewed. Great tool to send my new VA as he learns to use the Sendy program I have owned for a very long time.
Hi BugFound - I work with many platforms because I do email marketing for clients. My favorites right now are Mautic, ConvertKit, & Klayvio. I’m definitely considering keeping Sendy around for the long term.
Great, Ill be looking into that course. Do you have any insight on mautic being acquired and what that might mean moving forward? For instance, does that only effect the hosted version? Or will it change the open source version too? Looking forward to your black friday LTD picks.
I think it's a good thing. Acquia is a company that understand open source (they also own Drupal). I think it will help development and everyone on the platform will benefit.
Hey Dave how you doing man Well thank you so much for sharing great knowledge I really like your videos because it definitely helps me to be more productive. well, I have a little question, can I use my dedicated server for sandy?
Mauteam has a great article on this, but you can just backup the whole darn server at the EC2 level. mauteam.org/mautic/mautic-admins/mautic-backup-for-dummies-marketers-too/
Hi Dave, another great video! I'm a wannabe techie; I enjoy toying with VPS servers. I'm setting up a mail server with Webmin/Virtualmin. Does Mautic integrate with Webmin/Virtualmin or is Mautic a stand-alone?
Hi Johnny, Mautic runs on a php stack just like Sendy. If you're setting up your own mail server, you could use that for Mautic. It also works with SES, sendgrid, mailgun, etc.
I'm not currently using it, but I did install the most recent version earlier this year. They have added some useful features like supporting other senders. It still a really solid platform, I'll try to make an updated video one of these days soon.
Friend! Thanks for video. Im really interestedin Sendy, but I write to them, over 1 month now and no reply back. Do you know if it's still in the works? Can I get a box with you and have it managed? Thanks
Hey Flavio, yes they're still around. Maybe your email was lost in spam. They just released V5 recently. Sorry, I don't do managed Sendy hosting, but thanks for asking.
@@dave-swift Thanks, Dave! Strange, as I wrote to them from more than 1 email address, from Gmail. In current times, we already wonder if person is in good health, etc. Will keep trying to reach them. Thanks.
Awesome video - can't thank you enough! BTW, I use Siteground growbig plan and is building my site for launch Q#1 Do I need to switch to a VPS like cloudways to use Sendy Q#2 If use sendy for newsletters & simple automation etc, will I be able to use Mautic for sophisticated automations (I am techie btw and can face the challenge of taming Mautic :) ) - can I have two email tools (mautic & sendy) work together harmoniously?
Hi Bibhash! The problem with running a mail application on a shared hosting plan is twofold: 1. You don't necessarily have the resources you need to run crons as frequently as you need. 2. Your IP can receive a bad reputation if someone else on your shared hosting plan isn't behaving properly. This will impact your deliverability over time. I highly recommned a VPS so that each app silo'd and has the resources it needs! Regarding your other quesition, you certainly *could* use both apps concurrently, especially if you require seperate opt-ins for each on. i.e. Signing up for a newsletter (sendy) is different than signing up for an email sales sequence (mautic) However, I think I'd prefer to use one or the other, as you can certainly send newsletters with Mautic as well, so it's easier to keep everything in one place for most use cases.
hi may i know whether sendy can:- 1) integrate with elementor pro form 2) integrate with woocommerce3) have email sending logicfor example, if users opened an email, they will receive email A in the next email,otherwise, email B thanks!
1. Yes there is a sendy/elementor pro widget: wordpress.org/plugins/inboundlatino-sendy-elements/ 2. How do you want to integrate? 3. Nope! It doesn't do marketing automation. .
Hi Dave! I am strating using Sendy and I run with this problem, when you hace more than 30.000 emails opened and you want to down load them, it doens´t work, it takes a minute to process and then it shows ERROR 500, do you know how to solve this problem? Thanks!!
Hey awesome video ! :) 1 Question if you dont mind me asking: - how can i import emails via a CSV to a drip campaign ? I plan on buying sendy via your affiliate link :) I am gonna gather emails via entry questions of a large FB group i have. I am then gonna take those emails and i want to send them to a drip campaign. Would you know how to import CSV to drip campaign ? Thanks again and awesome video. You explain stuff so amazingly well. :)
Thanks Usmle - importing via CSV is really easy. There is a template on the list screen inside of Sendy. Make sure your CSV is formatted like Sendy requires and importing works great.
Hi Dave, love your reviews, they help a lot to make better desicion! After I saw this review I came across something that called weMail, from weDevs (their other products also appear on AppSumo). I'm not understand much in this topic but this plugin looks great, even too good to be truth)) Did you ever hear about it, or used it? If no, it would be great if you take a look and maybe it will be something worth to shere your opinion here. Thank and good luck!
Hello Profitable Tools, can you help me I have configured CRON in my CPanel, I wait the time of one minute for the autoresponder to update, but it keeps showing up and it doesn't update me can you help me please Thanks and greetings from Mexico.
Long time sendy user. This is the best video on Sendy training that I've viewed. Great tool to send my new VA as he learns to use the Sendy program I have owned for a very long time.
Thanks Maria! Glad it was helpful.
Dude.. you saved me tons of time!!! Thank you soo much!!! Still valid help nearly 2 years later!!!
Very clear review. No fluff and liked the task centric approach. 👍
Thanks Neil!
Hi Dave
Any ETA on your Mautic course, you do not seem to even mention it in the video.
Hopefully the plan for course is not relegated.
Regards
7-10 days :)
@@dave-swift You will have Mautic course? WHAAaa? Awesome!
This is good. Which autoresponder do you use ?
Hi BugFound - I work with many platforms because I do email marketing for clients.
My favorites right now are
Mautic, ConvertKit, & Klayvio.
I’m definitely considering keeping Sendy around for the long term.
OH I had to laugh when you said "Oh you gotta be kidding me" If I had a nickel for every time I said that while working on a website.
Haha yep, I'd be swimming in my money pool like Scrooge McDuck.
i just used ur link to buy thank you
Thanks for the support!
Great review. Thanks Dave.
Thanks Dave, glad you found it helpful it!
can you make a video creat a form optin on wordpress please?
An option form for Sendy?
do you use sendy or mautic ?
I am switching back to Mautic this week for Profitable Tools. Most of my clients are on Mautic as well.
There is a create template feature and you can actually create a variety of templates within a Sendy brand
I'll have to look again. Thanks!
Great, Ill be looking into that course. Do you have any insight on mautic being acquired and what that might mean moving forward?

Made my day. Cheers.
Great! Thanks Sune. Glad to help.
Awesome video, thanks for sharing this! Nothing is impossible. :)
I would like to see reviews about mailster and mailpoet and how they compare to mautic?
Good idea. My schedule is pretty booked through BF but I'll put it on my list.
I want to purchase ohmylead is there a review coming for that software.
Currently have it on the books for the 23rd.

Hey Dave how you doing man
Well thank you so much for sharing great knowledge
I really like your videos because it definitely helps me to be more productive.
well, I have a little question, can I use my dedicated server for sandy?
Yes. You’ll just need a Lamp stack installed.
What is the best way to backup Mautic if you use Amazon AWS EC2? Will that method help when we need to restore the backup, if need arises?
Mauteam has a great article on this, but you can just backup the whole darn server at the EC2 level. mauteam.org/mautic/mautic-admins/mautic-backup-for-dummies-marketers-too/
great
This was an excellent tutorial mate. Let me know if I can support you on Patreon.
Thanks WebPotato. I'm considering launching a membership area soon.
Hi Dave, another great video! I'm a wannabe techie; I enjoy toying with VPS servers. I'm setting up a mail server with Webmin/Virtualmin. Does Mautic integrate with Webmin/Virtualmin or is Mautic a stand-alone?

@@dave-swift Thanks Dave, I was going with Webmin because it's open source.
I use convertbox and it needs an HTML form. Does sandy give you an HTML form like other auto responders do?
Yes! Here is (part) of mine. share.clientamp.com/x20kAO
Do you still using Sendy? And can you Do the latest Update or Review Thanks!
I'm not currently using it, but I did install the most recent version earlier this year.

Hey Dave
Could you do an install and review on Mail Train It's open source software
and maybe slightly more user friendly than Mautic
Hey Joel, I haven't heard of Mailtrain before. I'll check it out!
@@dave-swift Great let me know if you do a video on it never used it or seen it in action but it looks interesting

@@dave-swift thanks Dave! Just another question, does Mautic also runs cron?
@@codelibrary5 oh yes. There are many many crons ;)
@@dave-swift Nice review! But Why bad reputation? Sendy uses Amazon SES, so the shared hosting IP isn't relevant here. Right?
Cheers
I used to have Siteground. Just look at their rules for crons etc.

Yes but how can we import CSV to send drip campaign ? What you said is for importing to list
After you create your list you can create an auto responder. It’s under the list settings.
Please review TextAU LTD on AppSumo.
This is must. Please do that for sure
OK. Currently scheduled to come out on the 23rd.

Hello Profitable Tools, can you help me I have configured CRON in my CPanel, I wait the time of one minute for the autoresponder to update, but it keeps showing up and it doesn't update me can you help me please
Thanks and greetings from Mexico.
Hi Edgar, you'll have to contact your host for support with this. I don't use Cpanel.
thank you
You’re welcome!
is there unlimited subscribers?
Yep!
hi how do i personalise it... i have 1000 subscribers i need each mail to have each members name
Did you capture their name when they opted in? If so, use [Name, fallback=]
Your explanation of CRON is wrong. CRON is only for the autoresponder. Sending campaigns or confirmation mails will work without it
It is recommended to setup a CRON for sending newsletters, so if you’ll be able to resume if the sending is interrupted. go.sendy.co/sfO6HC
