I am a big fan of Aweber and they have a new Paypal integration tool which is very cool.
You connect Aweber with Paypal through your Aweber account. It is a very easy procedure and takes only a couple of minutes. Go to ‘My Lists’, then to ‘Email Parser’ and then select ‘Paypal Integration’ under Shopping Carts.
Once you have set it up, you can see all your products and services that you have set up in your Paypal account and you can now link each of those products and services to an Aweber list.
Now, when someone buys a product through Paypal they will be added to the appropriate list so that now you can keep in touch with them easily. The only downside is that they still have to go through an opt-in process but if you write your confirmation email specifically for that list, you will have everyone sign up.
Here is a screenshot of what it looks like. Here I have a two products connected to an autoresponder called busbydesign2012 and I am adding Test Item #1 to another autoresponder that I have created. All your autoresponders appear in the dropdown menu. If you want to connect a product to a new autoresponder, create the autoresponder first and then it will appear here.
I hope that you found this tip useful. Let me know if there are other things you have seen and wondered how they were done.
