MenuHow do I manage and automate auto responders and customer communication with Capsule, Mailchimp and Freshbooks?
Answers
You need to think about these auto-responders in terms of events. If you can put data up on MailChimp when an event takes place, you can manage auto-responders off of that data. Here is some additional information from their website. http://kb.mailchimp.com/article/how-do-i-create-an-autoresponder
Hello!
Great question. An answer here will be working off some assumptions but I think this can be addressed fairly directly.
If Capsule knows the listing type as fed from your site and it has the email address you're looking to mail with you'd want to build a report to output each of those variables. Difficulty level... probably 6/10 for most CRM users.
Once the reports are built they would dump to a CSV table(s). These could be batched and identified by a keycode given to Mailchimp or you could upload them to X number of different individual campaigns.
Depending on the frequency you need this process to occur you could probably do an API with Mailchimp and feed this same information to the same places though I'd expect to pay for it. The CSV dump is way more practical for most applications though, especially if you aren't updating your mailing file in real time.
We deal with stuff like this all the time for clients - if I can help with specific process design let's set up a call.

What is Drip Marketing? I'm looking for case studies or real life examples of how effective it is a strategy for user retention.
Drip marketing (aka. drip emails, or lead nurturing) is often used by modern marketers to nurture their leads through the sales funnel. As others have mentioned the idea is to gain brand awareness and influence buyers through a regular series of targeted and relevant content or offers. Typically for top of the funnel activities you might offer something like a general whitepaper or something which describes the overall business problems that your prospects might be feeling. From there you can use a marketing automation tool to send through additional material or reminders periodically depending on how your prospects engage with you. The idea at the end of the day is to reduce that amount of direct time that a sales rep spends closing any deal by ensuring that leads have shown sufficient buying signals and are ready to purchase.SH

How do I get people to subscribe to my email newsletter?
I would seriously consider launching a blog and posting content of the same type to the blog, in abundance. Then add a popup box to the blog to collect email addresses. Post daily blog posts about topics related to your blog and your newsletter. If you do this consistently, over time, you will build up traffic to your blog and also get people entering their email into your popup. This is the free way to do it...EW

I sell an actual item worn by women, mostly middle-aged. Need to strengthen our conversion rate. Which social media is best for this age group?
I've found that with the saturation of retail on social media sites in general, the best way to make a sale is to target the right people who are already looking for what you offer... For you: I'd recommend using highly targeted Facebook Ads (Target by age & gender plus any other things you know about your audience/buyers in terms of things they are interested in). You might also research companies who provide holistic relief for hot flashes, find their facebook pages and create a filter for your ads to target fans of theirs. You could see a HUGE return on just $100 Facebook ad buy. Good Luck and let me know if you'd like to schedule a follow up call; I'd be happy to walk you through the setup and some additional strategies!MH
