Do you have an email marketing alias? 🤨

Testing opt-in forms, especially ones that trigger any automation, can present challenges when you use only one email address

Subscribing and unsubscribing the same email address as we track down problems gets tiresome.

This is where email aliases become a hidden hero tool in your auditing tool box.

An email alias is simply a forwarding email address without the hassle of creating new email accounts. Gmail makes it super easy to create multiple email aliases.

Let's say super email marketer Jane uses gmail address [email protected].

Jane can create an alias using the dot or numbers and the + sign:

[email protected]
janerocks+[email protected]
anerocks+[email protected]

Gmail treats these aliases as acceptable versions of [email protected]. So do most email marketing providers.

If you submit janerocks+[email protected] to an opt-in form you're testing, your ESP should trigger any automation you have set up.

You can unsubscribe from this alias when you're done testing the form.

Creative productivity must include a focus on overall well-being. Rest is not a moral failing.

"Here are things that I can and can't do. I can, on most days, work for approximately two or three hours a day, using bits of time here and there with breaks for rest. I can't, on most days, function well after approximately 2 p.m., which is when I begin to develop fevers, moderate to severe nausea, weakness, fatigue, and a cornucopia of other symptoms that I never get used to, no matter how often they come to call. I can do some fun and exciting things, given certain accommodations."

"In a society that holds productivity as unequivocally good, to do less feels like a moral failing."

Within email marketing, customer journeys are a tool for achieving your overall email marketing goal. Each journey should have a single goal, ideally one mapped to your bigger email marketing goal.

It's important to understand that welcome emails are a part of larger customer journeys. Each customer journey may have several branches and/or triggers based on customer behavior.
