I just re-read her offer. It says if you sign up for an annual account, so I'm assuming you'd have to pay your full year in advance. You do get a 10% discount, but I'm not sure I'm ready for that kind of a commitment quite yet...

I use Mike with myemaildesigns.com and pay $24 for the entire year. I get 3 different emails a month for just $2. I love it.:thumbup:

That's why I wanted to know what the whole cost would be. So when I can afford it I think I am going to do it. A year free w/ Joy & 10% off if I pay for a full year.

Thanks again for getting the prices.

I'm trying to get it set up for monthly with iContact but I don't have an ETA on that... iContact doesn't have any sort of "cancellation report" for me so I wouldn't know who was current. Otherwise, I'd be happy to offer a month-for-month deal on free subs with iContact. Keep an eye out - I will be sure to share if I can work it. For right now, though, as soon as I verify the subscription is paid for a year, I automatically put through a year's subscription on my side.
 
Hey gang, just an update... I was able to work out a deal with iContact for the reporting that I need, so I should be able to offer the FREE subscription for anyone who signs up through my affiliate link, on a MONTHLY basis... so you can do it month-to-month.

I need to update the website with all the pertinent info so keep an eye out in the next couple of days!

Joy, do we enter a special code in to get them to know we are coming on your recommendation?

She'll probably have a link to use to get to the sign up page. I'm anxiously waiting, I haven't upgraded my free trial yet, and I don't know how it'll work if I've already signed up for a trial without using her affiliate link...
 
You definitely DO need to use my affiliate link and if you already have a trial account, you need to set up a new one using my link and a different username... they can't "transfer" from the old one to my referrals.

My link is on the iContact info page on my website. I will try to update that page later today with some more details on the monthly thing... I'm trying to figure out an easier way to streamline it.
 
Has anyone run into problems with iContact emails being a problem with hotmail? I'm on my sister consultants list and everytime she sends me something via iContact Hotmail puts it in red and I have to accept it each time....not junk just saying there maybe contact that may have a virus, etc.
