How to make your email marketing fun, with a Joomla twist

A many of you know, we loooove using Mailchimp for our newsletters! But…the integration with Joomla honestly left us with more to wish for. Sure, it was possible to use Mailchimps API to do some nice things, but let’s face it, if you’re going to run a member-driven site, these things should be seamless.

Joomla and Mailchimp just wasn’t the perfect couple…until now. A big thank you goes out to the FreakedOut team for making it happen!

Last year, the FreakedOut team created Joomailer, which merged the power of the CampaignMonitor email marketing system with Joomla. This made it possible to manage your website and CampaignMonitor driven email marketing from one admin control panel. Pretty sweet, we thought…but we still had our hearts set only on Mailchimp.

To our surprise, the FreakedOut team recently contacted us and said “We’ve got something you’ll love!”. Working together with MailChimp, FreakedOut have created a new version of Joomailer which integrates with our favorite Chimp. Yay! Best of all, the component is 100% free! (more…)
