MarketingSherpa's Email Marketing Benchmark Report 2010
has reported a massive increase in inquiries for social sharing
features, which allow subscribers to post email content to their social
networks.
As an immediate response, we here at GraphicMail are
now giving you the option to have your subscribers share email content
through social widgets which you can now place in your footer.
It’s easy, it’s simple and here’s how to do it:
In
your Graphicmail Account, click into >> Advanced Mode >>
Setup and Options >> Header/Footer settings >> Set the
‘General Settings’ (at the top) to “Advanced Settings “Click “Email
Footer” to expand it. Select “Add social media links on all emails” and
you’re done. It’s as simple as that !
For now, there are the 6
major social sharing networks. As GraphicMail designer, Ruan Benade
says : "We have limited ourselves to these six major networks, as it is
not advisable to clutter your email design with too many social sharing
buttons, the buttons we have chosen represents the five most popular
social networks at present." As the social networking landscape is a
constantly changing, we expect to add a few more in the future!
Have your subscribers share your newsletter on Facebook, Twitter, DiggIt, MySpace, Delicious and Google Bookmarks.

The
VERY BEST way for you to gather new subscribers is through a
Subscription Form on your site - especially since this method supports
opt-in email marketing, an approach that GraphicMail strongly advises

information; the next step prompts you to select the mailing list that
you want your users to subscribe to and then it is only takes a few
seconds to add the extension to your site. The whole process is
speedy and should take less than 5 minutes from beginning to end – and
there is no file editing required…….. absolutely everything can be done
