A simple way to let users resubscribe to emails

The current system is embarrassing. Either they have to find an old email (which often they can't) or they have to go to a form, which requires sending them a form, which requires them filling out and seeing an unintuitive bit of text (which is clickable but doesn't look lie it) and clicking that to be sent another email which contains a way of unsubscribing, rendering the submitting of the form you sent them redundant. Many people will click submit on the original form, thinking they have now been resubscribed, but they haven't been.   This needs to be rethought.

 

Thanks

Wondering if Tyler still works at HubSpot? And if so, why there isn't an update to form resubscribes? See his comment in another thread below:

Thanks for all the comments here - from the Subscriptions side of things, enhancing our re-subscription options is a goal for early 2019, we appreciate the feedback and will take these suggestions into account as we improve the re-subscription via form feature.

any updates on this? I really need this function and it's been so freaking long!

There's been a post about this on 2017, and then again (this one) on 2020. Already 2023 and no news on this. 

Any updates?

Why so little is going on is probably the apparent complexity of data protection law in europe.

However, this cannot be blamed for the fact that the current function is unsatisfactory for everyone.

I agree! it is necessary, I cannot even change the text in the form so it goes with our brand

A BIG BIG Upvote!

We need to have the possibility to re-subscribe the contacts at least by the new form submission! if a contact is giving you a new consent, why wouldn't we be able to contact him? This is such an obstacle for marketing campaigns. We really hope this idea can find a solution soon.

Hi @NatalieNo1 , what do you mean it has been resolved? Could you provide more info?

Thank you!! 🙂

When in the contact record, on the left-hand side you have 'About this contact' scroll down and there is now a 'Communications Subscription' dropdown.

I had a TEST record that I opted out of email ages ago. Today I found the 'Communications Subscriptions' and Walaaa! I've resubscribed the contact!!

But this is a manual resubscribe, right? I'd still like HS to make it easier for end users to resubscribe.

@CDay Yes exactly.

 

Would be great if the users could re-subscribe by a new form submission instead.

I elevated this high at hubspot because I basically threatened to cancel. They said they're working on it this year, it's on the roadmap and have a dedicated PM to it... not sure the status though, currently. This really is a deal breaker and I will have to cancel after this year if its not fixed!

@PHolland I met with a PM in Dec. 2021 to discuss form resubscribes. When I checked on the status a couple months later, the person was no longer at HubSpot. We discussed adding a disclaimer under forms stating users who submit a form acknowledge they're opting back in to emails. Right now, I have separate branches of every workflow to hold people who are unsubscribed after submitting a form. We have hundreds of contacts on hold.

@CDay I am so curious about this branch logic... do you just bucket people as they unsubscribe then resubscribe? We currently have no way of knowing but my gut says I have missed thousands of contacts.

@PHolland After their form submission, we have an "if/then" branch checking if the contact is unsubscribed. If they are unsubscribed, the contact is delayed receiving what they requested until their property value ("subscribed") is changed. What I noticed was that even if they clicked the pop-up message under the form to resubscribe, our workflow would've already tried sending the email of whatever they requested before they had time to go into their email to resubscribe. This if/then branch gives them time.

 

For all other contacts who request something without clicking the pop-up message under the form, I now have proof that we aren't reaching people who clearly want something from us. If they don't click to resubscribe, I have it set to add them to a list after a certain amount of time.

A manual re-subscribe by an Admin is not a resolution to this 'idea'.  The idea specifically states that we need an easier way for a Customer to do it on their own wihtout the manual intervention of an Admin.  Other systems have an internal process that does allow the Customer to do it completely on their own. This is a huge gap in functionality.

It's embarassing that this hasn't been fixed yet.
