I've just added the ability to start or stop automations with one click in an email.

Say you want to offer your customers a way to click a link to sign up to a list. Or get an auto-responder sequence. Or tag themselves as being interested in some topic.

You want to say "Click here to ..." and have it be instant without them having to then enter their name and email and phone number again.

Here's how you do it:

In the sidebar for your automation, you'll find two links, one for starting the au…

I finally managed to finish 1-click upsells. I started on it back in November, and then it sat for a long time while I struggled to figure out exactly how to do it, and focused on other things. But now it's done, and it's here. Available for all accounts on the Basic, Professional, and Unlimited plans.

What is it? It's the ability to show additional offers immediately after a customer's original purchase is complete. You can make a whole sequence of offers, and each offer can be either accepted…

Another piece of the marketing automation puzzle has arrived today with the new Segments feature.

Segments let you create groups out of your contacts, that you can then do things with. You can send them emails, tag them, start automations for them, or just monitor who and how many are in a segment.

Go to Segments in the main menu on the left, and click to create a new segment. Right now, the criteria you can create segments based on are pretty basic, a little bit more flexible than what you've…

One of the favorite parts of my jobs is when I get to meet some of the amazing people who use Simplero. Gill has been a customer since January, and while we've interacted many times via the support system, this is the first time we speak live with each other. Such a blessing and a blast.

It's no secret that one of my big passions, besides Simplero, software, information marketing, and life transformation, is music. So Gilli and I had a lot to talk about, and it shows in the easy-going style—we …

In addition to Automation, a couple of important supporting features also dropped in the past week:

Triggers on auto-responses allows you to have an introductory sequence that new subscribers are taken through, and only after that sequence is through will they start receiving your regular newsletter. But you can use it for many other things as well.

Triggers on links can be used to tag people who are interested in a topic, and expresses it by clicking a link. You can tag them, add them to anot…

If you've signed up for a Simplero trial account but haven't quite gotten started yet, maybe these Intro to Simplero videos will be helpful to you.

There's a ton of great content!

Lots of love,

I've just finished a feature that I've been sitting on for a while, and which I'm sure a lot of you are going to love: Automations.

Automations let you create sequences of steps that happen automatically in response to some user activity. Okay, that sounded pretty abstract.

You probably know about auto-responses already. These are emails that are sent automatically over time in response to people purchasing a product or subscribing to a list. With automations you can do the same, and much much…

You can now add a trigger to run some action when a link is clicked.

This is super useful to catch people who are interested enough in an offer to click a link about it, but may not yet have bought the program.

Simply go to your broadcast or auto-response, find the link, click Edit, and add a trigger that will get run when they click this link. The trigger can add a tag, notify you, add them to another list, or any of a number of other actions.

You can also use this to make a link that will a…

We've just launched the ability to trigger actions when an auto-respons is sent.

This is particularly useful for one specific use-case:

When people opt in to your list, they're first put on an introductory auto-responder sequence, and then when that sequence has run to the end, they're put on your main newsletter list.

To accomplish this:

• Create a special list for the introductory auto-responder sequence
• Have the opt-in go to that list
• Create the auto-responses
• Add a trigger on the last…

How are things?

Do you have one of these areas where something is not quite the way you want them to be, and they've been that way for years?

You've tried to fix it many times, but nothing really worked, so now you've just left it alone.

Could be your weight. Could be a pain in the lower back. Could be your financial situation. Could be your relationship, or lack thereof. Could be many things.

And then one day, something changes, and you decide to do something about it. To finally fix it, on…
