Title: email collector for website.
Post by: danielratti on April 12, 2013, 07:31:33 PM

Were looking for a good free email collector for or website at work so we can send out mass emails for when we run sales in the store. Is there any good ones out there that are free?

Good <--------------------------------> Free

I think that they are opposites. You're best bet for free is using your mail client (Outlook, Mail, Gmail, etc) to manage a list somehow.

Thats my suggestion too.

Set up a generic account like...    [email protected] or something like that.  Put all the contacts into that account and then send a mass email to "all".  Or if you need to send to groups... create distribution lists and send them out.

Right we plan on that we were looking for a program for the website to let said persons add there email then we could add them to the contact list of the email.

Then all you need is to add a form to the website... they fill it in... it send an e-mail to you with their address that they just filled in.  Or you can even have it automatically add it to a spreadsheet.  But, I dont know how to do that.  Never got that involved.
