Drupal-Addemar Sync: opt-in
The issue
• Problem is: KS did not want to juggle with two environements for the management of
our recipient DB:
1) the Drupal admin on the one hand where you gather all your opt-in addresses
2) The Addemar admin, where you can segment the addresses, manage the opt-
outs, and unsubscriptions, etc…
• Besides, how make sure that both databases would always be
synchronised?
The solution:
The Drupal-Addemar synchronisation plug in, developed by Connexion in partnership with
Addemar
Subscription
• When a KS website visitor wants to subscribe to a newsletter, he needs to opt-in for it, by
filling in this Drupal form online.
• He is also invited to indicate his favourite local Kser retailer
