MANAGING EMAIL LISTS
If you send marketing messages through our Email Marketing tool, only users who opt-in will be able to get your emails. This keeps you safe from accidentally emailing someone hasn’t opted-in… which is a huge no-no under GDPR!
Of course, if you use a different email program, you can export your contact list and their opt-in status will be indicated, so you can manage your marketing the way you like!
EDITING CLIENT INFO
Once you have these boxes enabled, each user’s email and agreement settings are saved in your Contacts tab. If you need to change someone’s status, just click to edit a person’s info manually.
LEGACY PLATFORMS (FLASH, PORTFOLIO, ETC.)
New GDPR checkboxes only work on the most current version of PhotoBiz. If you’re still using a legacy platform like Flash, Portfolio, or the old Store, you won’t be able to use this feature on built-in forms. You can, however, build a form using the new system and link to it.
We can help you do this… OR! We can get you updated to the new PhotoBiz 8 platform! Call us and we’ll help you find the best option.
WHAT ABOUT EXISTING CONTACTS?
It’s a good idea to tell current clients that you’ve updated your privacy policy and ask them to verify their email preferences. You can easily send out a quick email using our Email Marketing tool with a link to a form where they put in their info and update their email settings.
You can also now filter your contact list by email settings. Click on FILTER and you can pull a list of all of your clients who have (or have not) indicated their email preferences. This makes it really easy to identify and target the people you still need to hear from in order to continue receiving your emails.
