Your tutorials are always sooooooo on target and very easy for people to understand. I have been stressing about how to do this and you simplified it in less than 10 min. Kudos to you!
Thankyou Marcin for making such a basic tutorial for me. At my age I shouldn't need someone to hold my hand but I have so much to learn and so little time. Also, thanks for making the automation features accessible in the forever free version. You've probably got me if I succeed in breaking the thousand!
Hi Arnold, welcome to MailerLite! Your success is our success, which is why we offer automation to Forever free plans too. 😊If you ever need a helping hand, you can also contact our 24/7 support team at support@mailerlite.com.
I want the lead to opt in, after opting in he should be presented directly with a thankyoupage the I specify, on the email he receives he must get the direct link to download the file. Right now it is not working this way and we have to make the lead jump trough multiple steps.
2:35 So this is good to know BUT it makes it available to anyone who has the link. How would I create the scenario where the ONLY way they can get access to my free e-guide is if they have actually filled in and submitted the form? What's to stop people from sharing the link with others so they can by-pass the signup form? Also, how do we make a form responsive? My form looks great on a desktop but not at all on tablet or mobile.
Hello Harbour Dog, unfortunately, it's impossible to stop people from sharing digital downloads, as just as easy it is to share URLs, it is possible to share screenprints etc of the file. With that said, we heard Netflix is onto something to stop customers from sharing access, hopefully, they have a solution for us all soon 😊
@@MailerLiteOfficial Thanks for your reply; regarding my 2nd question, can you offer any info on that? (Also, how do we make a form responsive? My form looks great on a desktop but not at all on tablet or mobile.)
Hi Barbara 👋 Double opt-in is available for everyone 😊 You can find instructions here, please notice tabs at the top of the article for New/Classic MailerLite to get the instructions you need www.mailerlite.com/help/how-to-use-double-opt-in-when-collecting-subscribers
@@MailerLiteOfficial Thank you! Also, I was wondering how can paste the form link into Linktree, or my Instagram profile description, for example? Mailerlite online gives me a JavaScript one which aparently only works for a landingpage or for a button. Than kyou!
Okay, I got all that. Now, I have a freebie and I don't want all from my current email list to have to go through a landing page and sign-up again with their email. I was told that I could just send existing subscribers via my email directly to the THANK YOU or SUCCESS Page so that they get direct access to the freebie without signing up (after all I already have their email address and I don't want to have two of their email addresses). Is that possible in MailerLite and if so how?
Hi Patricia 😊 For existing subscribers I recommend you to use second method explained in the video - Automation. Create automation with a trigger When subscriber joins a group > design an email with download link > then trigger subscribers in the trigger group manually help.mailerlite.com/article/show/29181-how-to-add-existing-subscribers-to-a-workflow I hope this helps ✨
@@MailerLiteOfficial wow, impressed with the quick response! I am going to try it later. Thanks. I really do like MailerLite so much better than Mailchimp!!!
Thank you for your kind words Patricia 💚 Best of luck with your automation and if you need any further help, don't hesitate to contact our 24/7 customer support team 😊
Hi there Erv. Thank you for your kind words! And yes, that is possible. If you are using a MailerLite form, you could assign a group to it. You can have the 'when a subscriber joins a group' trigger so whenever someone signs up to the form, they get added to the group and the automation will be triggered. Alternatively, you can also use the 'when a subscriber completes a form' trigger, whichever one you prefer. Hope this helps! 😊
Hi, are u able to exclude people from viewing the download link, that are not on my emailing list. Let's say someone shares the email with a friend but the email is only meant to be for subscribers. Or some sort of double check by the system that checks if a person is on the subscriber list?
Hi Michael, at this moment we don't have a feature to prevent this. You can suggest this on our Feature requests page, and if it gets upvoted enough from other users, our developers may consider working on it 😊 In the meantime, you can experiment with external tools, such as one-time secret onetimesecret.com/.
I've created a pop-up form, double opt-in and thank you page in Mailerlite. I then integrated it with my WordPress site. I have a free PDF I have linked in the Thank You page. When testing, I added my own email and I do not get a double opt-in email. I also noticed my email is not being added as a new subscriber. What am I doing wrong? Does the PDF need to be hosted somewhere?
Hello Andres, it is not possible to add attachments to newsletters mostly because viruses are often sent via attachments, causing many Spam detectors to not accept such emails or send them to the Spam folder. It also affects the speed of sending and the deliverability of your campaigns. However, you can still share PDF files with your subscribers, here is how you can do it 😊 www.mailerlite.com/help/how-to-send-a-freebie-lead-magnet-to-new-subscribers#new
A subscriber fills in pop up, gets the double opt in confirmation and thank you, then I have entered my Landing Page. Therefore they are filling their name and email in again?? I am confused
Hi there Jane! So generally your freebie can be put in your thank you page. If your landing page is basically just for sign ups, there's no need to add a link in your pop up form to your landing page. You can just add a link in your double opt-in thank you page to where the subscribers can download the freebie (which is hosted somewhere else if it's a file). Hope this made sense :)
Looks good. But why not offer the option to let the end-user upload the pdf document directly to that button, or what have you, inside MailerLite? This saves time and possible errors when the Google Drive file doesn't work or got accidentally deleted. Convertkit offers this option, and it's very intuitive. First impressions of your tool are excellent, though! I'm creating a review video about your software tool so please keep an eye out for that one! :-) - Robbin
You can put a link inside the button pointing to wherever the document resides and therefore they will be able to download the document straight from the button.
Hey Robin, thank you so much for your feedback 😊. We're glad you're finding MailerLite useful! And yes, what Ruth said is correct. That's how we currently process files within the app. We appreciate your tip and will see if it'd be possible to roll this out in the future. If you'd like to give more insights or feedback to this or any other request, please don't hesitate to reach out at info@mailerlite.com :)

I had never thought of using the "Thank you page" as a PDF download. Thanks (-;
Hey @EnglishSquared 😊I'm happy to hear that you found this video useful ✨💫
This was really helpful. I love how easy it is on Mailerlite. Created a new landing page with the template and your instructions. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful Pamela 👏😊

That's amazing to hear Sara, happy mailing! 😊

@@harbourdogNL All our forms are responsive, is there anything in particular that we can look into?
Thank you for this video. However, I wasn't able to find the Double-Opt in Email option... is that for the premium version only?

@@barbaragonzalezdecossio8052 Above the JavaScript you can find a sharable URL for the embedded forms 😊
Hi. Thank for your video. I did the same with the landing Page and double opt in but didnt work. How can I review my problem?
Hey Martin, please contact support.

Helpful video!
Question: is it possible to begin an automation workflow AFTER a subscriber downloads my freebie on my Double opt-in Thank You page?
To clarify: set up to where the automation workflow is activated once a subscriber downloads my freebie on my Double opt-in Thank You page.
