Action Steps
In AWeber:
- Go to: List Settings > Web Form
- Select Create Web Form
- Under "1: Form Details"
- Fill-in your form name, e.g., "Sign-up box Test"
- Type: "In-line" (unless you want a different kind of box,
like a Lightbox, which fades over the entire web page).
- Start on Message: If you have autoresponder messages,
then you would want to start on "1 autoresponse".
- Note: For instance our free e-Course starts with Lesson
#1.
- Click "Next" (or click the "2: Design Form" tab)
- Under "2: Design Form"
- Click in the "If you want to add a headline" area, then
add:
- What you're offering for Free (See Listbuilding: "How
to Build an Opt-In Page")
- E.g., an e-Book, White Paper, list of top ten (or
more) tips, checklists, etc.
- The name of your eNewsletter.
- Leave the Name and Email fields as they are
- Click in the "If you want to add a footer: area, then add:
- A comment about your stance on Privacy* and sharing
emails, e.g.,
- "Your email address is never shared with anyone."
- A link to your Privacy Policy on your web site.
- E.g., "View our Privacy Policy.
- Click "Submit".
- Rather than using "Submit", we suggest using a phrase
which tells the person opting-in what they'll be getting (WIIFM -
What's In It For Me) like: "Send my Free ____" (e.g., eBook).
- Click Save
* Note: Please see the Listbuilding article: "How to Build an Opt-In
Page" for more on Privacy Policies. Of course you'll want to have your
own Privacy Policy which is customized for your website/business. You
will probably want your intellectual property attorney look this over
(or write one) for you.
