Questions on Email Campaigns...

Recommended Posts

Site URL: http://mattrutherford.co.uk

Hi all - I have been building a nice email mailing list for my site, and have a growing and successful newsletter.  I am using the Squarespace mailing list feature, and I have a couple of questions:

  1. Is there a way to (automatically) create a newsletter archive?  I want people to be able to read back issues before they subscribe. 
  2. or Is there a way to automatically cross post the content from my newsletters into my blog. 

I suspect I am starting to reach the limitations of the Squarespace email engine - and I may need to move across to a third party (mailchimp?   mailerlite?) - if thats the case, are there any recommendations or guides to integrating an external tool to my Squarespace site. 

Thanks in advance....

I don't personally use Campaigns (I'm using Flodesk for now), but I have seen where on other email providers that don't have the archive feature,  people have created a page in their website and added the links (manually) for each newsletter sent and then put something like Newsletter Archive in the footer for people to access.

Thank you - this is an option I tried before, but it's a manual step to the workflow that should be really easy to automate.   I have a page where I can go and see all of my sent campaigns - I'd love to just have a block that pulls those.

Bearing in mind the rise and rise of Newsletters, it's a worry that Squarespace doesn't seem to be developing for this space (or any space really).
