This is great - I've tested one-click optins inside of Letterlist and it works amazingly well. But it's always a pain to set up manually. This is such a cool idea to productize.
Congrats on the launch! As a newsletter operator, SparkLoop's products have been great, and the customer support has been great too. Excited to test this out.
@runciedan Thanks Dan! Has been amazing watching you build and grow Trapital over the past two years. Excited to be a part of that journey going forward too!
Hey folks, Drago from SparkLoop here!
I'm super excited that we're finally releasing Magic. This idea has been percolating in our minds for a few weeks now and I couldn't be happier that we focused our efforts to build it.
Why am I so excited?
It is an idea that's so obvious in hindsight.
Think about it. Clicking a link, waiting for the landing page to open, finding the form, typing your email address, submitting it, etc. was all replaced by a single click. A. SINGLE. CLICK.
Think about the old signup flow as a leaky funnel. Out of 100 people clicking the subscribe link, 30% may actually end up subscribing.
Think about Magic Links as a stainless steel pipe. No leaks. One click and you get a new subscriber, every time. No 30-second load landing pages. No distractions. No forms. No typos in email addresses. No submit buttons to click. No nonsense.
Hope you'll find it useful as our Beta testers.
If you have any questions I'm all ears!
Hey Product Hunters!
Louis from SparkLoop here. I'm super excited to share our latest free newsletter growth tool with you today!
In our "normal" jobs at SparkLoop HQ, we spend all day helping the biggest newsletters in the world grow faster with a referral program. Like James Clear, Tim Ferriss, Front Office Sports and thousands more.
So we have a first-hand view of exactly what the best newsletter publishers and brands are doing to boost their growth.
And it turns out — as we predicted in our "21 ways to grow your newsletter faster in 2021" article — one of the best performing email growth channels right now is to promote your list in other newsletters.
Often that's by doing cross-promotion. Sometimes it's by sponsoring other newsletters directly (ie buying advertising slots in them).
Either way, it's super effective and EVERY newsletter publisher (and really every brand) should be trying it out in the near future if you want to grow faster.
That said, we noticed one big inefficiency with newsletter cross-promotions/sponsorships...
If you're sponsoring Newsletter A, their readers have to click on a link in the newsletter, visit your landing page, try not to get distracted, and then type in their email address correctly.
Probably from their phone, while they're watching TV and doing ten other things.
You can see what I'm getting at...
It's a lot of friction for them to opt-in to your email-list. So each newsletter sponsorship you run, you're losing out on 20-50% of potential sign-ups. That's probably (tens of) thousands of dollars in missing value.
And that's why we built Magic Links.
Instead of sending Newsletter A's readers on a journey to your landing page to sign-up, they can just use a Magic Link to opt-in to your email-list directly from their inbox. With one click!
In early testing, we've seen conversion rates boosted by 20-50%. A total game-changer for any brand, publisher or creator who promotes their stuff inside other newsletters.
@mnlfrgr and @dragocrnjac did an amazing job building this out in under a week. Taking care of any security and anti-fraud implications. And making sure it's easy to add a Magic Link with any email platform in just a few clicks. No code or Zapier hacks needed.
Interested? --> Our resident newsletter trend expert @kierantie wrote an awesome blog post explaining more about how it works.
Give it a try — for free — and let me know what you think!
@louisnicholls_ that's not what yur doc says. Just checked again today and it's written that some email providers like Revue/Substack can't work due to their model
Brilliant idea, and even better execution! Great product, super simple, effective, and to top it all off, the dang thing is FREE! Great job, men! Keep it up!
@karen_sergeant Definitely one we're hoping to add in the near future!
In the meantime, you can still use the one-click link. You'd just need to manually export signups and import them into Infusionsoft.
Hey, does Magic talk to Sparkloop? Meaning - the person sending my magic link gets all of the sign ups they send me attributed to their referrer ID in sparkloop?
I am a MASSIVE fan of Sparkloop (yet to launch to my list but the set up has been a DREAM) and MagicLinks looks like it would be an awesome addition to that! :)
@edward_bell Thanks so much for the kind words!
We're building out the integration between SparkLoop (for tracking referrals) and Magic (one click signup) right now. Should be available within a few short weeks!
