Tip of the Week 09 - Make your emails more efficient, while also avoiding trouble.
One of the things that email marketers hate the most has to be email addresses that serve no purpose, either because the subscriber is not responsive at all, or because the address itself is invalid.In any case, both these factors are a setback to your marketing effort, rendering it inefficient. Another major problem that most marketers face is that of unsubscribes, which happens when people are not interested in the sender's emails, causing the number of subscribers to steadily dwindle. One the
Help with Autoresponder / Workflows
Hello. I would like to set up an automation that would notify a Contact Owner when one of their Contacts clicks any link in an email campaign. I have created a custom workflow which is working, but as far as I can tell, I will have to clone the workflow for every email campaign, change the subject line, select the new campaign, etc. Is there a more efficient way to do this? I just want our sales team to know when one of their Contacts shows interest in a campaign by clicking a link. Seems like that

How can I receive the replies to my email blast
Our company has sent out multiple email blasts using Zoho. However, we are unable to receive the replies to the campaigns. I have consistently set the same email as the "reply-to" address but none of the replies have been received by this email. When viewing the reports, I have seen that there are replies, but none of these are being sent to the Reply-to email address. What needs to be done in order to have the replies sent directly to the reply-to email address? Thank you!

I am an admin on our account, and another admin received an unsolicited email that claims to be from me, and even uses my email address in the To Field of the email.

How do I customize the "Tell-a-friend" email that is forwarded?
Hello, I understand that right now Zoho Campaign emails have a "Tell-a-friend" link in the footer. This seemed to be nice feature which we would take advantage of. Unfortunately, the page the link takes you to looks a little sloppy, and the email which is forwarded to the friend looks ugly and spammy. Is there a way to customize the page and the email? The feature is essentially worthless if the sharing experience is terrible.
Customize Tell-a-friend Forward Email
Is it possible to add custom html for the forward email yet? I would like to remove the extra step of clicking on the link and actually forward the email itself.

The template is very restrictive and not ideal for our purposes
What is the "import queue"?
My contacts haven't been syncing for almost 2 months, even though the sync is active and the last Retrieved Date is up to date. The clock logo looks clickable but does nothing when clicked. Why would there not be some sort of error or notification to let me know my contacts haven't been syncing for months?!? This is a huge problem. I've turned the sync on and off and that also does nothing. I looked at the date the last contact was added from my contacts list and I see this one has the "Import In

Poor Design Capabilities - Zoho Campaigns
I was very dissapointed with the design capabilities and template options in Zoho Campaigns. I figured afte the wonderful Canvas View option in CRM you might have some better features and layouts. Are there any plans to broaden your template library or improve design features? It's very clunky and basic right now and difficult to make a good design within. I find myself designing using other programs but then using mostly images I've imported. That does not make for a good Campaign.

After a lead unsubscribes from an email in a workflow, what happens to the rest of the workflow?
I created a drip campaign in Campaign Workflows. We are sending it out to a specific group of leads. One person in the list appears to have unsubscribed to several of the emails in the drip. Shouldn't the first unsubscribe have stopped the rest from going to his/her inbox? Or is that something I need to add to the drip?

Open & Click Rate lower than MailChimp
Hi Zoho Campaigns Support, Please help investigate why my open rates are lower than when I send similar emails via MailChimp. Previously, using MailChimp, my email open rates were approx. 20-30%, and now after switching over to Zoho Campaigns my open rate has dropped to 15-18%. This ultimately affects click rates as well. I've authenticated my SPF and DKIM. I send emails to contacts, and the sender addresses are the contact's Zoho CRM owners (my sales reps). I've checked my domain on various domain/
UTM Error for my Zoho Backstage page link in Campaigns!
I'm so frustrated! My most recent event promotion email in Backstage has been a total disaster! 670 recipients with 4 links taking them to a UTM tracking code error, not the website! My Zoho Backstage website is https://events.happyhour.group, which is great and works really well but for some reason when linked from Campaigns, the tracking code resulted in an error! Could it be that the platform doesn't recognise .group as a valid TLD? Can anyone see why this might have been?
