Interesting... and a bit depressing...

Sheila,

I actually offer several different versions and lengths. The one you get on sample request is the longest, but if you sign up for the free trial, you can download or view all the other versions as well. I like to think I have something for everyone

Oh, and you always have the option to further edit. Nobody ever has to use the entire newsletter verbatim, but I find it's better to give you all the material and let you edit out what you want, rather than try to make up more articles because I didn't give you enough.

PampChefJoy

What exactly is the issue?

PampChefJoy

Well, if my theory is right, it's because some email programs will automatically flag junk mail if the content is over a certain length, so I need to see if I can clean up the code... I'm working on it right now. In the meantime, I'll forward you a copy of yours...

I get a "trying to create from blank" error, even when I have all of the spots filled. Let me go play with it again and copy the exact error for you.

It's after creating it, when I select "download HTML," I get this error:
It wouldn't be a big deal, but I still use Constant Contact, so I have to copy and paste the HTML into the templates.

YOU ROCK! THANK YOU! I've never had a problem before so this is a new thing.

Also, I woke up this am, changed some info and sent it out.
Within 10 minutes of sending, I had one of my past consultants email me asking what she needed to do to resign! She stated that she has had several people asking if she sold anymore.

So, I just emailed her back and I might have a new recruit today! YAY!

Thanks Joy for working so quick to get that to me.

Thank you so much Joy for working on getting us another option of the August newsletter. I was also having trouble receiving a copy and thought to look under CS and voila, you were working on the problem. This am I was able to succesfully receive a copy. Hugs to you for working so hard for us!

Ann - I'm working on it...

The newsletter 2nd version I uploaded does not have the going going gone article. It seems every time I upload code that contains alot of images, email systems go all funky with it. I think the multiple images triggers spam filters. I have a plan for next season changeover.... I can make the entire thing one big image instead of several smaller images. You would lose the ability to edit individual images, but you probably never need to make changes to that section anyway.

Joy, As a test, I took out all of the business opportunity info, and ran the spam checker. It still tells me that I have a biz opportunity. So I'm thinking that the checker must just be looking for a word & that the newsletter has it other places.

I just looked back and last February I sent a Going Going Gone email. It had 14 images. I know it must have gone out because I had the highest open percentage on that email (to date).

PampChefJoy

Did you send it separately? The going going gone included in the August newsletter is what makes the code so long...every linked image adds up in a spam-calculator...

PampChefJoy

It might be because your PWS ends in .biz... everything I've read said that is a BIG trigger. And we can't do anything about it...

BlessedWifeMommy

duh! That just stinks!

And yes the Going Going Gone in February was by itself. I'm planning on sending one the same way mid-August.

And the problem with the .biz isn't likely to go away, with all the new domain extensions coming online soon.

Thanks, Joy! I got my newsletter out today by copying the code from the regular August one (and deleting sections) instead of using the build your own area. But I did want you to know about the issue.
