I am testing out a trial of iContact and I need to see if I can get it set up the way I want it for my subscribers. I need 5 (please, just 5) volunteers to help test out the system for me... preferably someone who has not ever used iContact. I need to see how "user friendly" it can be for my subscribers. I will set up a trial account for you, but I need you to be able to test logging in, setting up your mailing list (so preferably there should be at least 1-2 people or email addresses you can use for test recipients), and pulling up my newsletter template and making changes to it. Then I will need you to check and see if it's easy for you to look up your tracking information, and your general opinion of both iContact and its integration with my newsletter.

If you are game and can work on this over the next couple of days, please post here with your name and email address and I will send you the login information. If you see 5 names here, then we're full.

thanks!!
Joy

Crystal, I'll add you on too, since you a current Head Chef subscriber, I'd like to know your opinion (how it compares to the current service).

Thanks,
Joy

Approved for what? What was she sending that was "reportable"? It's just a customer newsletter, just as we would send via email, only much more private because of the mailing list function.

Perhaps she chose to archive her newsletter online (they offer that feature - I would not use it). It would appear as a web page.... and I can see why that would attract attention.
 
not sure--I will clarify--
 
Okay so I see Joy you have lots of 'back ups' but I'm MORE than willing to help! :-) I make my own newsletters so to see how others send it out to their groups I'd love to help!
