Best integration for my Webflow form to collect info and send newsletters.

👋 Hey. I've built my website in Webflow (founderoo.co). With the site, I have a form so that people can subscribe to my newsletter. The form works and when someone subscribes the details are collected in the project settings form section of my Weblfow account.

Now that's all great. I have 15 people signed up, I'm stoked. Now I'm trying to work out the best way to automate things so that when someone signs up they get there intro email to welcome them.

After the welcome email, they'll get the same newsletter that everyone gets every week or every two weeks.

I have looked at lots of email marketing integrations but not sure which way to go. I was considering Tiny Letter to get started as they can do up to 5000 people for free. Plus it's a simple format which is what I want /need.

Any help on this would be great. How can I automate the first email when people sign up.

Thanks
Guy

    You'll need to use something like Integromat/Zapier. It looks something like this...

    1. Visitor submits native Webflow form.
    2. Form submit triggers Integromat/Zapier.
    3. Integromat/Zapier sends info to your email service provider (MailChimp, etc..)

    I have a screencast walking through this setup, I use CampaignMonitor for it, but you can use any ESP as it's almost identical:

    How do you send an email to the person who submitted a Webflow form?

      Mate slow to reply, thanks so much for this. `I started with Zapier and it's working well. Not that I'm getting many subscribers as yet but when they come in they get the right message. I used Email Octopus for now.

    Try Mailerlite with Zapier. For me at SLASHMINT it works great.
