How can I use a “web form” to subscribe clients to multiple autoresponders?
Having the ability to add prospects to different mailing lists gives you greater flexibility and effectiveness for your marketing. To subscribe clients to multiple autoresponders from a web form, you need to access the source code for that form.
Once you’re within the current form code you will see a line of text that reads:
input name="defaultar" type="hidden" id="defaultar" value="123456"
The code reading "123456" represents which autoresponder or newsletter the form is directing the information entered. If you’d like your form to subscribe a client to multiple autoresponders, you can duplicate this code within the form and alter the autoresponder ID number to reflect your second autoresponder sequence. Please see below for an example.
input name="ar" type="hidden" id="ar" value="123456"
input name="ar" type="hidden" id="ar" value="654321"
When clients complete the form, they are added to both autoresponders labeled "123456" and "654321". The ID numbers themselves are located within an autoresponder’s general settings, under the field marked "Autoresponder ID."
To locate this number go to Autoresponders >> Manage Autoresponders and click on the name of the autoresponder you want to include in your form code. Once clicked, you are directed to that autoresponder’s "General Settings" and on this page you’ll see the "Autoresponder ID" field with the number next to it.
In most cases, the following line of code appears like this:
input name="custom" type="hidden" id="custom" value="0"
This needs to be adjusted to:
input name="custom" type="hidden" id="custom" value="1"
Adding clients to multiple autoresponders allows you to send more specific, tailored messages to segmented groups of your list with offers and marketing that is better targeting their needs.
