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.

@ dear Melissa, I have a question, if you have time to answer. I work for a tantra organisation and offer tantric sexuality education and workshops. I’m interested in switching to Mailerlite but you mention they have a strict approval/selection procedure. Do you think someone in my field could be eligible to use Mailerlite?

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: www.mailerlite.com/contact-us?category=automation Team Wit & Wire
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 UA-cam. 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
It would be nice if you told us Affiliate Marketing is not allowed at the beginning so the deal could be broken before spending half an hour to learn it. I may check into just making it a link to another splash page with the close on it.
Thank you for this video! I have a question tho, is it possible to plan daily automatic emails? for example: I want my clients who signed up with their email to receive a quote every single day. Is there a way to plan these 365 quotes ahead? I can't find this information anywhere so hopefully you can help me! Thanks in advance :)

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.
@@witandwireand mailerlite doesn't allow you to put any amazon affiliate links that are relevant to the recipient and email especially if they agreed to receive them when signing up?

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.
@@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!🙏
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
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.
@@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!

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.
I created a landing page to collect emails, but the emails aren't being saved to the group I set up. I've gotten emails of people filling them out. What would cause this

Also, when I tried to insert the email subscriber box, it won't let me remove the "learn more" box. And it won't let me insert another box next to the email box, for people to insert their first name into. How do I do that?

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?
