To access the Email Marketing module click the email marketing Tab in the top navigation area in your OLA / Levelfield Account.

Basic Accounts have one campaign that can be edited for each weekly send out.  Customized Travel Accounts, Small Business Custom Sites  and Association/Chamber  Accounts can create multiple newsletters.  To edit a campaign Click the Campaign Name. In the case of basic accounts click Newsletter:

Click the Edit button to start editing the Campaign.

The first time you edit a campaign you will start the Email Campaign Wizard from the starting point where you must first confirm your Physical Unsubscribe Address.  The Federal Commercial Anti-Spam Act requires that we include a physical unsubscribe address where recipients can contact you through the US Mail System to be removed from your mailing list.  Without this address we can not send out your campaign.

Once you have confirmed your address click the Next button to proceed

The Format menu allows you to select from the HTML templates or a Plain Text Template. Because the Plain Text is self explanatory we  will use the HTML Template for detailed examples.

Once you have selected the template you want to use click the Next Button:
