How long does it usually take for me to receive clearance to send an email?

Why must eSimply clear my email broadcast before it’s sent?

This is to differentiate legitimate email marketers from spammers as well as for security concerns. Protecting our clients is of utmost importance. Once your job is submitted for distribution, an eSimply administrator will review a proof of its content before launching the broadcast. Please note: eSimply.com reserves the right to refuse service to anyone attempting to promote questionable products or behavior that is considered spam or otherwise. If you’re complying with the law in sending legitimate email (translation: not spamming), you’re good to go. If your job is flagged for any technical reason(s), you will be notified and provided suggestions on how to remedy the issue. Our objective is to assist our clients in every way possible. But, if you’re sending unsolicited email (translation: spamming), we will refuse your business. Bottom line, if you’re a spammer, go elsewhere!

What if content has not yet been built for my email?

• Canva.com (Free or Paid account) We suggest using a FREE template design service called Canva.

You can insert additional pages. eSimply has a 32-page limit. Within the Canva interface you will find the button which allows hyper-linking elements within your selected design to external locations on the internet. Please be aware if you do not have a Canva Pro subscription, there may be a small fee to download some of the templates as they sometimes charge for licensed photography/clipart. To avoid these Canva licensing fees, you can supply your own imagery. Once you have downloaded the PDF you can return to eSimply.com to finish sending your email broadcast(s).

Can I do any merging of text within the emails?

If you would like to personalize your emails, you may insert place holders into your HTML source, such as "{Dear}" and eSimply will prompt you to match these "merge fields" with available fields in your selected databases. You can also add these merge fields in the SUBJECT, FROM EMAIL ADDRESS, REPLY TO ADDRESS, and HOTSPOT LINKS. In addition, if you would like to have a default value when a particular record has no value for the merge, use the following syntax: "{Dear|Valued Customer}"

Email List Management

Email lists contain the email addresses of the recipients of a given email job. You may upload an email list in either Excel or CSV (comma separated value) format. Alternatively, you can create, edit, or delete individual entries in your email list. eSimply automatically removes problematic entries from your email lists.

Why does eSimply allow adding more than one "Email From" address?

Adding one or more supplemental "Email From" addresses will likely increase your delivery success rate and allow more emails to be sent in a shorter time. Please use at least one supplemental address on an alternate network than your primary "Email From" addressess. If your main "Email From" address is using Google G-Suite or Gmail address, then use a non-Google address such as Zohomail.com or Protonmail.com
