Investigate a rolling promotional section in the newsletter #62

Open MyfanwyNixon opened 5 years ago

Could Alex investigate whether it is possible to pre-write a small number of promotional pieces of content which would then automatically appear in the newsletter on a rolling basis?

Example: Month 1: MapIt promo Month 2: WTT promo Month 3: Data promo Month 4: TWFY API promo Month 5: WDTK Pro promo and back to no 1 again.

If so, I will write the short promos.

I think the best bet is to use the code content blocks, and then copy in the new code in each month.

For instance, the mapit promotion in: https://us9.admin.mailchimp.com/campaigns/wizard/neapolitan?id=814145

So the steps would be:

  1. Write the promo contents
  2. We create the HTML versions of these and store somewhere
  3. Copy the wanted code into the code content block when doing a new newsletter.

OK thanks - I can do that very easily.
