Getting set up: the 7 steps
Home shows a card called Get set up with a count such as 2 of 7. It always points at the next thing to do. You can do the steps in the order shown, or open any of them from the card.
The seven steps
- Your website. Enter your web address. Fullturn reads the site, learns what you sell and drafts your first article. The step is done once articles have somewhere to go live: your WordPress site with the Fullturn plugin, or a site hosted by Fullturn.
- Your first article. Fullturn writes one article about your business so you can see what it makes. Nothing goes live because of this step.
- Connect a mailbox. Your emails go out from a mailbox you own. See Connect a mailbox.
- Verify your sending domain. SPF, DKIM and DMARC must all be valid for your sending domain. See Sending domain: SPF, DKIM and DMARC.
- Add your mailing address. A postal address is needed in the footer of marketing emails. Add it under Settings, Team, Outreach.
- Import or find your first list. Import a CSV or find contacts, so there is someone to write to.
- Write your first sequence. A sequence is the series of emails Fullturn sends for you. Write the first one.
Good to know
- The count only goes up when the work is really done. If your site could not be read, the step stays open and the card says why.
- Fullturn sends nothing until you start a campaign, and the campaign screen names anything that blocks it.
