Aweber
I have been using AWeber for the past 6 months in my office. I work in an IT company as a Senior Manager of Marketing. I have used all major email marketing tools such as Woodpecker, Convertkit etc. Every tool is unique and has been developed to perform certain tasks. I will cover the above-mentioned tools as well in the next blogs. For now, let’s focus on AWeber. I will try to keep it short and simple so that you can have a complete idea about its features without spending more time. Majority of people specially marketing professionals know what is Aweber. So I like to start from scratch to make everyone understand.AWeber Features
AWeber allows you to create and send modern professional email newsletters that will go out to your audience using this powerful email marketing and automation tool makes it super simple and so easy to send these marketing messages out to your subscribers.
Email Newsletters – Now you can automatically create emails that can go from your latest blog post and again have those go out to your list or you can write in your own email and send out to your subscribers.
For instance, if you’re having a sale or maybe you want to wish people happy holidays you can send out a message to your email list subscribers.
Let’s say someone signs up for a free report on your website where you can automatically have this, send a message to them and give them that free report and then you can have another message go out a few days later asking them if they read that free report and a few days after that you can have another message go out. This allows you to build trust with your audience so they feel like they know you they like you and start trusting you this way your customers can buy more stuff from you and this is all through email automation
Drag-and-Drop Editor – It has over 700 mobile-responsive email templates that allow your emails to look really good on iPhones Android devices tablets, iPads, Kindles computers, laptops, PCs Macs, Linux machines pretty much anything you name it. You can view it nicely through the emails that are generated in their drag-and-drop editor and it makes it super simple and easy to use. It’s like making a little document in Microsoft Word.
HTML templates – Like many other email marketing tools AWeber also has HTML feature too, as we know it helps in creating greeting cards, Christmas cards, birthday cards as well as professional newsletters.
Aweber has the most contemporary templates which consist of classic and modern font styles, it has fresh image-rich pre-built pages which fit almost every occasion.
Email Automation or Autoresponder Follow-Ups – This is a sequence of automatically delivered emails this is similar to the email automation series. The automotive responder follow-ups are just an older way of doing it, it’s not as powerful as email automation.
Tagging feature which allows you to take your subscribers based on if they click or open items and that can send them different emails based off of the campaigns you send them so this is a really powerful segmentation feature that we’ve really been seeing in much more expensive tools for automating your business so it’s really nice to see this in AWeber.
Split Testing – Probably best feature ever any email marketing tool got. As we all know A / B testing where we test our subscribers behavior and taste by sending two or more campaigns. So you can analyze recipients’ interest and make future strategies.
For instance you can take two different subject lines for two campaigns, it will help in figuring out which subject line is performing better by analyzing open, click and response rate.
This feature is majorly used by market researcher or CXO level employees.
I already discussed top two features so lets move on to
RSS to email – so this can create emails from your latest blog posts so you just put in your RSS feed into Aweber and it can automatically email out your subscribers whenever you have a new blog post.
Sign Up Forms:
Now you can collect your subscribers information using the Sign Up form it has nice easy to use signup form. They can even host your signup forms for you.
Sign up form can be created by us as per subscriber information our we need. Pre-build forms already available there, you can customize as per your landing page theme. AWeber gives us three options to utilize it.
A – Sign up form can be added by ourselves (on landing page)
B – Can be added by developer
C – AWeber itself can host it.
Integrations and API
It gives you feature of integrations and API. Lets describe it with an Example, someone buy your product from your webite and pays through PayPal, you can have his information automatically and can get added to your Aweber auto respond.
Second Example, someone comments on your website or becomes a member he will be added in your Aweber list, you can automate your list growth with all these cool features and if you’ve got something that’s not already integrated they have a powerful API so you or your development team can get that going for you.
