The system will recognise the accounts default identity and will use it for emails unless specified otherwise. When using forms, you would need to set up separate default opt-in emails. This is to keep the opt-in email footer unique for each company. Follow the steps below on how to configure the forms.

Step 2:

  • Go to Campaigns > Emails > View Default Emails

 

 

Note: You will not see this if you have not yet created any emails – If this is the case, click “Get Started: Create a new campaign” > Select any template or start from scratch > Add a name to the email and Save it. This will take you back to the email page where you will now select “view default emails”

  • You will need to Duplicate the “Default opt-in instructions email” in order to edit it.

 

It will appear in the emails section as “Copy of Default opt-in instructions email”.

  • Edit the copy version by clicking on the orange box and selecting Edit from the dropdown menu – Change the name of this opt-in email depending on which identity it is linked to.
  • In the Envelope section in the “From” dropdown menu, select an identity.
  • If required then edit the Subject and further down, personalise the email by selecting “Edit the HTML version”
  • Then Save and repeat Step 2 for each company identity.
