Active Campaign GDPR reconfirm. Previous set, I’ve shown a video that shows you how to identify people from EU nations using Active Campaign. Now what I’d like to do is I want to send an email to confirm that those people are still interested. And to make it easy on them, we’re going to auto populate a form that requires confirmation and also tags. Realize this is not legal advice, this is just what I would do.
So let’s dive right in. In this video, here you can figure out how to identify people on your Active Campaign list that are from EU nations. Now what we want to do is we want to just confirm their interest and to do so I’m going to create a form the only thing I’m asking for his email address the more important parts are under options I subscribe them to a list and then I want to make sure they have opt in confirmation turned on.
Second, I’m going to apply a tag that indicates they’ve submitted their name in this case I’m a calling it EU dash interested and the reason I’m doing this is because Active Campaign is smart enough to know if somebody’s already confirmed and if they have they will not recent a confirmation again hence the reason we’re also applying the EU interested tagged indicate that they’ve submitted the form even if they don’t get the confirmation email, and then I’m going to go ahead and grab the URL from there. I’m just gonna grab the link and then let’s go back and look at the start of this automation. All this automation does is send an email out to those people that have a tag called profile EU, that was from the previous set so let’s take a look at this email.
All that it’s doing is asking them to confirm their interest to receive the email this link is the web form with a percent, or sorry question mark, email equals percent capital email percent. The reason I’m doing that is it will auto populate the web form with their email address. So all they have to do is click Submit.
So as an example, this person here is on a list but not confirmed so they would receive a confirmation email if I was doing list day this person if I was reconfirmed to list wooding, they’ve already confirmed so they’re not going to get a reconfirmation email and Active Campaign makes it clear that you cannot resend and confirmation emails in bulk to your unconfirmed contacts. That’s how you can reconfirm your GDPR contacts.
