What is
Permission Marketing?
Permission marketing requires you to ask
permission from your subscribers before sending
them messages. Your subscribers must first "opt-in" to
receive messages from you.
[back to top]
What is
Double Opt-in?
When a new subscriber asks to be subscribed
to your mailing list, a confirmation e-mail is
sent to verify it was really them. The person
will not be added to the mailing list unless
they respond to the email that has been sent
to them, asking them to click on a special link
or send back a reply e-mail.

Why Double
Opt-in?
This is the safest way to prevent you from being
regarded as a spammer. You are a trusted source of
contact at this point and your subscriber will read
your email. Internet Service Providers may block
any incoming mail sent from email servers, if they
think that you are spamming.

What is "Spam"?
"Spam" is the term for unsolicited email.
In other words, email that someone has not requested
to receive.

How many
messages can I send per month? What is the cost?
Your account is setup on a monthly billing cycle
and the amount you pay depends on how many subscribers
you have in your account. It makes no difference
how many mailing lists you have in your account,
only the total number of subscribers. You can send
to your subscriber list as many times as you like
within the month. To view our pricing options, click

What is
a sign up or web form?
A sign up or web form allows you to collect your
visitor's details. Use Zinidoo's built-in
form creation wizard to assist you in creating the
HTML necessary for your subscription forms, that
you can then place on your web site to collect your
visitor's details. If you have an existing email
subscriber list, you can import that too, all from
Zinidoo.

Is there
a limit as to how much information I can capture
from people who sign up?
No, it's totally up to you. Remember the more information
you collect, the better sense you have as to who
your subscribers are and what information to send
them in the future.
[back to top]
When my
customers sign in to the opt-in form, will they
receive an email?
Yes, they will receive a confirmation email from
you, with instructions on how to confirm their subscription
to your web site.

What do
I do if I already have a list?
Great, we have a wonderful tool that will import
your list. The list should be in a standard text
or CSV format.

is the data?

if my customers are unable to read HTML-formatted
emails?
When you setup your campaign, you will have the option
of creating a text version, so people can receive

HTML version. This is especially useful for modern-day
portable devices, such as your mobile phones, Blackberries,
PDA's, etc...

personalization work?

your subject line, or anywhere in the email that
you want, with your subscribers first name, last
name, company name, etc...
