This is a sneaky little trick you can use to make single click Polls, Surveys or RSVP's sent via email.
There are 3 easy steps to set this up.
In this example we'll make a simple three question Poll.
Setup the email
Firstly setup an email that has your question at the top, and contains three links underneath, each being an answer to the question.
Setup a landing page on your website.
You then need a landing page on your website. Something that says thanks for entering or filling in the poll. You could even setup a different page for each option, and provide a more specific response to their choice.
You can setup your links up like this:
http://www.yourdomain.co.nz/poll-response.html?response=1
http://www.yourdomain.co.nz/poll-response.html?response=2
http://www.yourdomain.co.nz/poll-response.html?response=3
or
http://www.yourdomain.co.nz/poll-response-one.html
http://www.yourdomain.co.nz/poll-response-two.html
http://www.yourdomain.co.nz/poll-response-three.html
Send email and measure results
The next step is the easiest. You simple send the email.
To see how the results are going go to your campaign reports and you will be presented with a summary of links that have been clicked, giving you a quick visual indication of which of the three questions has had the most people click it!
You can even take it one step further and see who specifically has clicked on which results. This information can be used in an RSVP situation.
