Test Everything
As a final check it’s worth making sure that everything is setup correctly with some simple tests.
- Go to your automations page in ActiveCampaign and make sure the automations you created are “active”…
- Go to “contacts” and a new contact manually with an email address you have access to (preferably different to the one you normally use)…
- After adding the name and email address, add your lead magnet tag that you created in task 2 to your contact…
- This should trigger the lead magnet delivery automation…
- Wait for the email to be delivered and open it…
- Verify that everything looks good and the links work as expected…
- At the bottom of the email, click the unsubscribe link…
- You should then receive a notification that your new contact has unsubscribed…
- Go to contacts and delete your unsubscribed contact…
In the next module, we’ll work on creating everything you need to get contacts onto your ActiveCampaign list, but do let me know if you get stuck with anything before then.
