Targetted Email Signups (padiact & Picreel)

Question

We have an email signup on our homepage that shows up whenever a visitor first visits the website.  Modern Retail has made it intelligent so it only displays once per visitor, so they don't see it over and over again when they come back to our website.

However, I'm wondering if we can make it even more intelligent?  Can we pick when we want the popup to show, let's say after 3 pages have been visited?  Thank you for your help.

Answer

If you want this sort of flexibility over your email signup form, then we recommend using a 3rd party service like PadiAct or Picreel.

PadiAct and Picreel do exactly what you want by showing the email signup form based on criteria you select.  You even have control over how the lightbox window is displayed on your website and what email provider to use for your subscribers.

They both have built-in reports so you can see how well you're doing.

Pricing varies so please take a look at both to see which service is right for you:

The only thing we don't like about Picreel is their "Powered by Picreel" in the lower-left corner.  Not a deal-breaker but something you might want to consider.

If you have any questions please submit a Support Request and we'll help you out.  Thank you.
