How to let users sign up to get reminder email?

[flex-j]

Hi, 

Looking to do the following:

1. Send email to mailing list.
2. email has a link "click to stay up-to-date on early-bird pricing"
3. user clicks the link, and when we are ready to send out early-bird updates they're added to the list. 

Apologies if this is basic but not 100% sure about how to do this. Thanks!

Hi @flex-j,

First, you'd have to create some sort of "Thank you signing up" page. This is the page you'd link to when someone clicks the "Stay up to date" button in your email. They're taken to the thank you page, then close their tab / window.

Once this part is set up, you use the click of this link for list building (Menu > Contacts > Lists) or in workflow enrollment triggers. It would show up in the filter group "Marketing emails". Select the email that contains the button, then specify the link:

If you work with a contact-based workflow, you can immediately enroll these contacts into whatever communication you'd like to send.

If you want to populate a list for whenever you need it, you just set up the filter and save it.

Let me know if you have any follow-up questions!
