Creating custom, eye-catching emails is simple and fun! The visual editor makes creating multi-column, mobile friendly emails super easy! Elements can be dragged and dropped into place, and the preview mode allows you to see what your email will look like on different sized screens.

The CAN SPAM act has a number of requirements that Donor Wrangler helps you to comply with. Emails are divided into two groups, (1) relationship and (2) marketing. Each email sent contains a link that allows for the user to opt out of any type of correspondence they no longer wish to receive. (For more information, see this help article.)
Allow donors to add themselves to your email lists by sending signup links. These links can be shared on your social media pages or placed on your website. The completed signup form will update the donor’s profile with their preferences.
You can create as many different marketing email lists as you wish. Each of the email addresses on a donor’s profile can be added to or removed from the lists you create. You can also create “hidden” lists which will allow you to opt in a recipient for emails they cannot sign up for themselves, such as a members-only newsletter.

The CAN SPAM Act creates a distinction between relationship emails and marketing emails. Marketing emails have stricter requirements than relationship emails. For instance, you can generally send a relationship email without requiring prior consent from the donor. However, this is not the case for marketing emails. Per the above link, an email is a relationship email if it consists only of content that:
For non-profits, this means that donation receipts, reminders for recurring donations, reminders of previously agreed to volunteer activity, reminders about an event the donor has already signed up for, etc. would constitute relationship emails. However, donation appeals, newsletters, requests for volunteers, the promotion of an annual gala or event, and other types of emails would all be marketing emails. It is up to the organization to correctly categorize their emails that are sent through Donor Wrangler.
