If you have been gathering e-mail addresses for your customers you may use e-mails as a marketing tool.

Go to Management: Marketing: E-Mail Manager

From this screen you compose e-mail messages and send them to selected e-mail addresses.  This marketing tool allows you to target messages to specific customers who meet criteria as defined by an active Query.

How To Do E-Mail Marketing

With POSitive E-Commerce you may "advertise" directly to your current customers.  You may send messages to all customers or selective customers who will most likely be interested in your message.

For example, a query will gather the e-mail addresses of all customers who purchased a particular product during a specific time period.

Your e-mail message could thank them for patronizing your store and invite them to purchase another item similar to the one they purchased.  Or you could announce a special promotion, a product recall, or any other important message you wish to send.

 

Advance Setup

Be sure all E-commerce setups have been completed.  If you attempt to do anything with e-mail before completing all the setups, you may be prompted with this or some other error message.

Send Test Message [F7]

You may test your e-mail message by sending one to yourself.  This will allow you to see how the message is formatted and how it will be perceived by your customers.
