Hi Gavin,

The trick in aweber (or 1shoppingcart) is to turn on click tracking. That way, in aweber the link will look like

“http://clicks.aweber.com/?xxxxxxxxx”

…and no more unwieldly than any other tracking link.

Cheers,

-George

Hi George

This is a great tip however the link that is generated looks really unwieldy as it is 3 lines deep.

Don’t you think that will
put people off clicking on it?

If you are using one shopping cart once they are in your list and confirmed you can put them into other lists in your account.

Hi Robin,

Thanks for your comment. You’re absolutely right, you couldn’t import a “responders” list back into Aweber without getting them to confirm, which is a pain.

There are, however, other email service providers who will allow you to import a list and mail them without confirming. Off the top of my head, Get Response and Constant Contact spring to mind. You can use them to send offers over to your top responders.

Hope that answers your question, but if it doesn’t, feel free to leave another comment or send me an email.

Thanks,

-George

George, good trick but there is no way to use those segmented email addies unless you re-import them back into Aweber… and then they need to confirm the optin, because Aweber won’t allow an import unless they confirm. You can of course manually send them email, which isn’t practical when you have email lists in the high five figures like I do, or even in the hundreds if you get good open and clickthru rates.

Would appreciate you feedback…
