How to use ArcaMailer / Campaign Monitor

Introduction

ArcaMailer is a third-party email marketing tool that integrates with eDirectory as a reseller of Campaign Monitor, a widely used platform for managing newsletter subscribers and sending email campaigns. With this integration, eDirectory users can collect and manage newsletter subscribers efficiently.


Understanding Campaign Monitor Integration

Campaign Monitor is a powerful email marketing platform that enables businesses to create, send, and analyze email campaigns. By integrating Campaign Monitor with eDirectory, site owners can easily build subscriber lists and reach their audience with targeted newsletters.

Creating a Campaign Monitor Account

Signing up for a Campaign Monitor account is free, and you are only required to make a payment when you decide to send a newsletter. This allows you to explore the platform, set up your subscriber lists, and design email templates before committing to a paid plan.

When sending campaigns, users have two pricing options:

  1. Monthly Subscription – Ideal for those who send frequent emails, offering unlimited campaigns for a fixed monthly price.
  2. Pay-Per-Campaign – Suitable for occasional email senders, allowing you to pay only when you send a campaign.

Pricing details are displayed when setting up a campaign, after defining your recipients, and before sending the email.
