MA eBlaster

 

Features of the MA eBlaster include:

  1. Macro Substitution allowing you to place fields and look up values from the subscriber record right into the body of the message for that true personalized feel. Four types of Macros can be defined, from straight field-to-macro substitution, to custom procedures for complicated calculations or lookups.
  2. Build a mailing queue with several messages lumped together for mailing at the end of a day or over lunch, instead of one at a time.
  3. HTML preview option for the system allows you to see what you've created before mailing out samples or actual e-mails.
  4. Automatic e-mailing of Reader Service Card summary and Sales Leads attachments in a file format specified by the user direct to the advertiser's e-mail address from the MA Circulation Manager RSC Module.

Set up an e-mail message as you would in any other e-mail package, except these are assigned identity numbers by the system. If you want to use HTML marking tags for part or all of your message, just click the "Is HTML" check-box. This will allow you to include images in your message drawn from your web-site without the need of attaching them to the message -- just like sending a web-page. Or attach files if you prefer.

There is a testing button (yellow envelope) on the editing screen that sends the message to the return addressee e-mail address. Once you're happy with it, save the message and then go to the broadcast screen. Pick the message you want to send from a pop-up or just enter the ID number. Build your condition for the message using our easy-to-use condition builder, which is very similar to condition building in the MA Circulation Manager.

Once the system has finished broadcasting, you can print off a list of trouble addresses, if any exist. Just go back to your source files and correct the e-mail addresses, then use the re-broadcast screen to send the message to those records which did not send successfully the first time for a given eMessage ID.

Simple to use, easy to manage. Now you can send out thousands of professional looking personalized e-mail messages to your subscribers based on any condition you can think of. Come back to this page, because we will be posting more late-breaking info as we add new features to the MA eBlaster -- such as the ability to automatically deliver RSC sales leads via e-mail attachments in different formats and batch processing of several different messages.
