The best way to preview your eCard is to temporarily move your recipients to the Excluded box and add yourself to the Additional Recipients field so that you are the only recipient. Then you can send yourself the eCard as many times as needed and see it exactly as it will look (at least on whatever software you use to view email).
- Go to eCards & Email Marketing.
- Choose an existing Campaign or create a new one. (If you need help on creating a Campaign take a look at the SUPER FAST eCards Email Marketing Tutorial).
- In STEP 2 of your Campaign, move all your recipients to the Excluded box. This is done easily by clicking the "Move All Here" link next to the red box. (This will ensure that your eCard will not go to your actual recipients.)
- Type your email address into the "Additional Recipients" box. Make sure yours is the only address there.
- Click the STEP 3 tab.
- Click the "Save/Preview/Send" button. A preview of what addresses will be sent your eCard will appear. Only your address should show.
- Click the red "Send Emails to Below Recipients" button.
- That's it! Look for your email to appear in whatever software you use to check your email. If you see something that needs adjusting, just make your changes in the STEP 1 tab and preview again by sending it to yourself.
- When you are ready to send to your actual recipients simply click the "Move All Here" link next to the green Recipients box. (This will restore your recipients so that your eCard can now be sent to them.)
NOTE: You can send to Additional Recipients as many times as you wish and eCards won't stop you. The primary recipients (those in the green box) cannot be sent the same Campaign email more than once in 24 hours as a safeguard.
POWER TIP: There is a preview button built into the eCard editor which you can use to get a general idea of how it looks. Although the best way to ensure it looks how you want is to send yourself a copy first. 😉
