The Union-Local Mail Center tool allows you to create email campaigns and send mass emails directly to your existing user base. This tool is fully integrated into the Admin Console which you use to manage your website and is compliant with the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003. Features of the Mail Center include:
Campaigns
Create multiple email campaigns for your registered site users to opt in and out of. Keep your members updated with email campaigns such as Newsletters, Bargain Updates, or other relevant Union related news.
Mailing List
Because the Mail Center is integrated directly into the Admin Console, you can choose any group of members already registered on your site to be the recipient of an email campaign. You also have the option of adding individual emails to campaigns or upload a list of recipients to create a custom list of recipients.
Templates
Create and save templates to reuse over and over for your email campaigns. Use the template to layout the basic structure/design of your email campaign. Once setup, the idea is to only have to copy and paste content into the template. This allows you to keep a constant theme of each email you send within a campaign. | With Union-Local you receive a wide variety of features to design and compose your website and create a professional, safe and secure presence for yourself and your union members on the World Wide Web.
We are always working on adding new features that we feel will benefit you in the design of your site and are always open to your suggestions and ideas for new enhancements. Chances are, there are other Union-Local websites that can benefit from your ideas and we will be happy to implement them if we feel they are appropriate.
Most of the features we offer are included for free in your basic subscription and a few more advanced features are available for a minimal monthly fee. |
