Email Marketing possible for newbie? Lost.

[Ice Cube KK]

Hey ,


Can newbies in the email marketing field do some numbers? Even better question, can a newbie in email marketing do numbers when English is their third language?
Will try to do so, but I have a question. I made prior great landing pages where to put in lead magnets, they are purely non-functional, but they have email forms, etc. I made them via Canva. But here comes the problem - how can i make this png, pdf-based landing pages on functional sites where people can write their emails in, check the anto-spam checkbox and press the button that leads to me collecting their emails and on automation to send out this freebie? Which platform do you use for something like this?


I just think that this is possible as I previously worked as a freelancer and every contract was semi-similar - I put in where the client puts in their email and signature. So I think there must be some explanation for this. I hope so, tried something like 10 sites, but nothing can do this. Don't know if this is the right forum niche, but atleast people here may respond. Thank you so much for your patience reading and maybe even helping in some way.

Anyone here?

How can one connect a premade graphic Canva landing page to any kind of email automation service? Making the landing page functional?


This is example - https://ibb.co/82tWWNH
I need to make so leads can enter their email, do a checkmark about anti-spam and then press the button "Send me an email", "Download now", etc.
Is it even possible? Or have I been wasting 24 hours chasing explanations over the internet that don't exist? Thank you all.

As a presupposition, I believe anyone can do anything. If they're willing to.
Doesn't mean it's necessarily easy. And there isn't a steep learning curve.

If I understood correctly, you designed a place to enter the email in an image!? That can't work. An image is just pixels which are shown. You need a box and a button which are "programs". This can't be designed in a graphic software.

You are asking some complex questions.

Yes there are ways to do this (collect leads, auto send welcome email, place in lead funnel...) but it is not simple, in fact it is difficult for a novice.

Look into mailchimp.com, they still have a free intro plan that does most of what you want, including a drag and drop interface for building the forms to collect emails (the forms may not look like your canva images). You may need someplace to host the form.

Good luck!

Thank you, I tried MailChimp, but the landing page I made in Canva was 5X better than something I could make in Mailchimp, but at this point I am totally beat and willing to go this way. Is Mailchimp the easiest for a newbie like me to understand and the safest bet? Appreciate you big time for stepping up and helping.

Yes, email, checkbox for anti-spam and access the here button. I just read the thread about email marketing for newbies and tried it out. I used to be a freelancer and every contract was signed by uploading a pdf file so I could make a place of action like where client signs , where is form for date etc. I found a similar website that could do that, but they don't have an email marketing option and the integration would be 2.5X cost of Mailchimp alternative if so. I will settle for a more shitty design, but functional I guess. It's sad , because I made real effort in them landing pages designs.

It would be kind of carving a car motor out of wood. It may be very beautiful on the outside, it won't work to make any vehicle go forward.

If you want your picture to work, you would need to overlay some boxes/buttons on top of it.
You can do that, but it will be even a little more difficult.

Anyone can do email marketing. You have to understand the technicalities. Plus it requires the art of copywriting, a really good one.

You don't even have to do email marketing in English

Do some research and you'll find what software you need for your use case, it's not that hard to research at all.
