You Voted! We Listened!

Posted: News

We had a voting in our last newsletter as to which features our customers most wanted to see added to Ecourse Wizard.

You Voted! We Listened!

Two of the most needed features have been added to Ecourse Wizard. This is going to blow you away!

Let’s first see which feature won the most votes. It was
.
.
DRUM ROLL
.
.
Pop up Subscription Form

And yes it has been added.

Login to your control panel, go to Settings - Subscription Form - Pop up Form and enjoy experimenting. You can make your own pop-up to match your website. It cannot get cooler than that!

We hope you are just as pleased with the second feature as we are. This is going to be one of the most useful features if you use the Autoresponder Sequence and add to it continuously. You must know by now that once subscribers receive the entire message sequence, they get archived.

So YOU ASKED, “But what if I want the archived subscribers to start receiving the additional messages I add to my sequence?” So we have worked on YOUR ANSWER and here it is:

Go to Autoresponders - Activate Subscribers. You can choose to restart your archived subscribers from any message in your sequence. Added message 4 and 5? Activate your subscribers from message #4.


We Keep Improving…

Posted: News

The following updates have been made to the Ecourse Wizard Control Panel:

1. Demographics

You might have noticed this section has completely disappeared. It hasn’t really disappeared. It has just merged with the Ezine section. The Demographic’s Add/Edit Questions can now be found under the more aptly named Ezine > Multiple Choice Questions. In the Send Ezine section you can also choose your target list according to their answers to these questions.

2. HTML Templates

Even more streamlined, now you can preview the template directly from the main HTML templates page and then choose to view the Code for the one you like.

Better still, you can directly save this code in your Send Ezine section. No more copy/pasting!

3. Testing Ezine

Previously, in the Send Ezine section, you had to first save an ezine and then test it to make sure your changes did not disappear. You will now see an extra button called ‘Test and Save Ezine’ which saves your ezine and tests it out at the same time.

We will be adding tutorials and new tips on these changes soon.


RSS Friendly, HTML Friendly, User Friendly…

Posted: News

Ecourse Wizard is continuously being improved to provide you with the best possible service. In this regard, we have added the following features:

1. RSS Feed Updates

If you have a blog, chances are you also have an RSS feed. Not many Internet users are familiar with RSS feeds and even fewer subscribe to them. However, almost everyone is familiar with email and uses it, too. So why not provide these users with the option of receiving updates via email as well?

  • Login to your Ecourse Wizard account.
  • Choose Settings from the main menu.
  • Scroll down the main settings page until you see RSS Feed Updates.
  • Add the URL of your RSS feed.

Now just sit and relax. Every time you update your blog and your RSS feed is updated, your subscribers will be sent an email with the titles and links of the updated content. See your traffic rise as people get reminded of new content at your website.

*Available to Value, Maxi and Xtra account holders.

2. HTML Template Generator with ‘Custom’ Templates

Are you tired of playing around with HTML and just want a simple solution? Our HTML template generator lets you do just that. All you have to do is fill out a few forms with your newsletter content, choose your template and you have the HTML code generated for you.

You might say: “But I still have to work with HTML. I have my own template.”

We have great news for you! For a small fee we will integrate your custom template with the Ecourse Wizard Template Generator. Just imagine the time and energy you will save! Interested? Contact us.

We have even better news for you. This offer is now available to our Value account holders as well. So all those with a ‘Mini’ account may want to think about upgrading :)


Ecourse Wizard Control Panel has a Brand New Look

Posted: News

Today, the Ecourse Wizard Control Panel has received a completely brand new look. Current customers can login to explore the changes while others can view the demo.

The Control Panel has been given a full makeover for:
- easier navigation
- a more customer friendly design
- intuitive menu items

Some sections have been merged while others have been added and streamlined. Addition of a drop menu navigationon on top of textual links makes it much easier to get around the panel and complete the task at hand.

We hope you enjoy the new interface and find that it makes working on your newsletter/ecourse faster, easier and just so much more interesting.
