Hey guys.
Marina here from Yes To Tech.
Welcome to Tech Tuesday where I remove the tech stress that comes along with running
a successful online business.
Today we’re going to talk about Wix email marketing, so that you learn how to set up
automated emails in Wix and create Wix shoutout email marketing campaigns.
Many of my students use Wix shoutouts for their email marketing to grow their email
lists on autopilot for free, and now it’s your turn.

Alright, so let’s get right into how to use Wix for email marketing.
So the first thing we need to do is create a lead capture form on our Wix website.
To do so, login to your Wix account, and click on edit site at the bottom.
Then from the panel on the left, click on ‘add’, ‘lightbox’, and ‘subscribe’,
and select one of the available templates.
This form is 100% customizable, which means that you can click on any of the elements
within the lightbox to edit them, including the ones within the form.
When you click on the get subscribers form at large, you can manage existing fields,
add a new field, such as first name, edit your form’s layout and design, and even
add an animation to your form.
Under form settings, you can manage existing subscribers if you have any, edit the settings
form your form, define what happens after someone subscribes to your email list, and
create automated responses for every form submission.
For instance, you can send a thank you email automatically after someone subscribes.
To customize what this email looks like, click on ‘create’.
From this automations customizer, you can define a trigger action, in our case, Wix
forms, that is triggered every time someone submits a form.
Once that happens, those subscribers will be sent an email.
Make sure you add your sender details, including from name and email, and customize the email
that your subscribers will be receiving.
Choose a time to send this email, either immediately or set a custom time, and choose whether visitors
receive this once or every time they trigger the action.
For actions like welcome emails, once is best.
Once you’re done creating your automation, you can see your automation summary on the
right, and make sure to click on ‘activate’ to make it active.

Okay, so now that you know how to create an email opt-in form and set up automated emails
in Wix, let’s talk about how to create Wix shoutout email marketing campaigns that you
can send to your existing subscribers.From the panel on the left, click on ‘marketing
tools’ and then on ‘email marketing’.
Wix has a number of email campaign templates that you can customize, or you can start from
scratch, and use Wix’s drag-and-drop editor to make the email campaign your own.
Once you’re happy making edits to your email campaign, you can click on ‘preview + test’
on the top right to see what your email campaign will look like on desktop and on mobile, and
even send a free test email.
Once you’re happy click on next to add your email recipients, and then on next again to
edit your email’s subject line, from name and reply-to email.
You can either schedule your email campaign for later or send it to your email list now.
One important thing to note is that Wix recently changed its settings so you can only send
3 new email marketing campaigns and a total of 5000 emails per month on its regular premium
plans.
If you wish to send out more campaigns per month, you’ll need to upgrade to one of
Ascend by Wix’s paid plans, which also includes chat, more form customization options, inbox,
invoices and price quotes, automations, and social posts.
Now you know how to use Wix email marketing, so that you can set up automated emails in
Wix and create Wix shoutout email marketing campaigns.
