The new Forward to a Friend

By Francois Lane on December 1st, 2008

CakeMail just released a new enhanced CakeMail “Forward to a Friend” function. Now users can grow their email lists faster and easier than ever!

The new Forward to a Friend allows recipients to deliver a personalized message to as many as 5 friends at a time, allowing each of them to subscribe to your email list, and of course, forward it on to their friends.

As before, the new Forward to a Friend feature is available in all 7 CakeMail interface languages. And as always, the CakeMail flexibility is included. The new API call, “Mailing.Forward” lets you customize the functionality to suit your taste.

The power of online referrals can have a significant impact on your email marketing business recurring revenue. Encouraging your clients to include “Forward to a Friend” in their mailings will help them grow their lists, expand their reach, increase their send rates, and help them become more successful email marketers.

CakeMail Combines Master User-Interface and Customer Management Hub in Version 1.6

By Francois Lane on August 11th, 2008

CakeMail is pleased to announce its latest release of the CakeMail open interface, version 1.6. This new CakeMail version eliminates the need for a separate Customer Management Hub, including the Customer Management functionality directly inside the new Reseller Master Account – All within one seamless interface.

Single-Click Administrator Account Access

The new CakeMail Administrator “single sign-on” one-click administrator feature allows you to log-in and work as any one of your client accounts, allowing you to review overall usage, mailings and content and send on behalf of your customers. Most importantly: all without having to create a separate user account!

Client Admin Status
Sample client administration screen. Visit our Client Administration Tour page for more.

Improved Client Management

As with the old Customer Hub, you can still use this area to review client’s sending history and track usage growth. But now you can quickly create, suspend or delete client accounts, set usage limits and manage client contact information in a single place, easily navigating between accounts with a single mouse click!

Linked With Master User Account

Of course, you can still access and use your own CakeMail user account to deliver your own corporate newsletters and automated messages as well!

All Hosted CakeMail interfaces are updated automatically. If you are hosting your own interface, you can download it at: http://www.cakemail.com/downloads
