Newsletter Sign up - WIT

The Newsletter Signup Page is a campaign record type that provides a web form for prospective contacts and existing contacts to sign up for your company newsletter.

Key Facts About The Newsletter Signup Page

When a person submits the page form, the record goes into the Batch Data Entry (BDE) Items table of your Salesforce org. The BDE table detects duplicate items, which means that if an existing contact submitted the form and it matches the name, a new contact is not created.

The BDE puts a flag on the submitted, new contact record or the existing, matched contact record for newsletter membership & delivery.

Create The Page

Setting up an Update Contact Details Page requires fewer steps than the single and multi-page donation campaigns, but the process is the same. You won't need to worry about options, such as payment types, but you will still need to consider a few settings such as the Blurb, Thank You Blurb, and uploading your Campaign Banner Image.
