Hi All, I have been trying to figure something out for a long time but just can't! so I am asking the clever people here. I send a large number of emails each day to different potential customers containing a click-through link to a landing page with a sign-up form on it. I already know a lot of my potential customers details and think if I can prefill the sign-up form with their details prior to sending the email, so that when they click on the link in the email and are taken to the form they can see most of their details are already filled in and all they have to do is fill a couple of extra bits in and submit. I think this would result in a LOT of extra sign-ups!! My question is: How would I achieve this? Considering we can send 200-300 emails per day, I know it will need a lot of extra work to prefill the details but would you have to make a separate landing page for each email? Anyone know of a workaround??? Any help really appreciated
The answer to this is clearly no, but you will need some PHP to pull their information out of your database, and JavaScript to display it based on the URL of the page (ex: you send each customer a different link to the same page, something like http://example.com?id123423, where 123423 is their customer ID, and JavaScript fills the form with the data of that user ID). It's complicated but at least you don't need 300 different pages. I wish you good luck.
