00:00 so we built our email now it's time to
00:02 send it
00:07 hey everybody Joerg Minh here and
00:10 hopefully you've already watched the
00:11 getting started video for the email
00:14 stacks and you've built your first email
00:16 okay now in this video what we're going
00:18 to do is we're going to show you how to
00:19 take that and then get the raw HTML for
00:23 it and then get that into your favorite
00:26 email service okay now there are tons of
00:28 various email services out there um in
00:31 this particular video I'm gonna be
00:32 showing you mine but remember this works
00:34 with MailChimp sendee um convertkit
00:38 active campaign campaign monitor you
00:40 know all of them okay because it is just
00:44 HTML on any email service will obviously
00:48 support that so without further ado
00:51 let's jump in and show you how easy it
00:53 is to get your email out of Rapid River
00:56 and into your email service okay so here
00:59 is the getting started email that we
01:01 built in the getting started with email
01:03 video okay so to get this ready to send
01:06 what we're gonna have to do is we're
01:07 gonna have to get the inliner stack that
01:10 is inside the email utilities stacks
01:12 layout group okay go ahead and drag that
01:15 onto the page now this can be added
01:17 anywhere on the page doesn't really
01:19 matter however as it says here in the
01:21 notes that if you are going to be
01:23 publishing your email make sure that
01:25 this stack is not on the page this stack
01:28 is purely to generate the email HTML and
01:31 then once you're done probably just
01:33 delete it and remove it from the page
01:34 now one thing you're also going to want
01:36 to make sure is that when you are
01:37 previewing your page you're going to
01:39 preview at full width okay so we want to
01:43 make sure you're not in mobile view you
01:44 want to make sure you're in full width
01:46 on your desktop and as you see here I
01:48 hit the preview and it magically
01:50 displays a lightbox that has two
01:53 versions of our email already compiled
01:55 for us it has the inline HTML version
01:59 and it has a plain text version of our
02:02 email okay really simple now if we want
02:05 to get this HTML all you have to do is
02:07 click this copy to clipboard button so
02:10 now I'm going to go into my email
02:11 newsletter software okay and I'm going
02:13 to paste in the HTML into the email
02:16 editor
02:20 you see here I have my email that we
02:22 designed inside rapidweaver ready to get
02:25 sent out to my email list now if you're
02:28 worried about subscribe buttons and
02:30 things of that nature make sure that
02:31 every single email service kind of has a
02:33 different macro syntax this particular
02:36 one if I want an unsubscribe link I
02:37 would put this bracket unsubscribe
02:39 bracket into the unsubscribe link okay
02:43 more details on that when we get into
02:45 the vendor specific videos on how to use
02:49 each individual service now we can go
02:52 and take a copy of that plain text
02:54 version of the email and paste that into
02:56 my service as well so now we are going
02:59 to be sending the plain text version and
03:01 the HTML version out to the customers
03:03 all at the same time so as you see it
03:06 really can't get much simpler than that
03:08 we add the inliner stack to the page
03:10 make sure that you know again we preview
03:13 in full width so that we get all the
03:14 proper media queries built properly okay
03:17 and then we click the copy to clipboard
03:20 button for the HTML and we paste it in
03:22 our email service it really is as easy
03:25 as that now I can't wait to see the
03:28 emails that you build so please go ahead
03:29 and make sure that you join our email
03:32 space on Weaver space community and and
03:35 share the email so that we can learn and
03:37 and see all the amazing things that we
03:39 are all building using the email for
03:41 rapidweaver stacks so until then thank
03:44 you very much and enjoy email bye
03:55 you"}]
