Manage Blog Subscriptions

We are working to launch a new website and blog platform (Wordpress) soon.  We would like to be able to manage blog subscriptions in Marketo (through a sign up form on the website), and have Marketo automatically send an email to subscribers when a new post has been added.  The email would ideally include the blog title, the first paragraph (or partial blurb), and a link to the post.

Is anyone managing blogs this way in Wordpress and Marketo? Are you able to to automate the process in this way?

Thanks!

Hi Lisa,

Yes, it's quite easy. See our blog here: Commerciaux Et Marketeurs : Comment Le Digital Change Le Jeu  (sorry it's in French). The subscription on the right is a Marketo form:

It links to a Marketo program with a "fills out form" smart campaign that registers the people (add them as a program member).

Then we recommend (and use) Digesto, from Perkuto (Convert RSS Feed into Marketo Emails with Digesto, a Perkuto product.) that makes a good job generating automated emails when new articles are posted.

Thank you - I was just checking Digesto out.  Are there any alternatives to Digesto that I should also take a look at?

Hi Lisa,

Not that I know of, except some bespoke, one-off devs, that you would not want to use, I bet

We're managing blog sign-ups via an embedded Marketo form on our Wordpress blog, but still haven't found the right solution for sending automated post notifications. We first tried setting a batch campaign to run every week at a specific time, but found that we couldn't always hit the same deadline to update the email tokens - so we ended up going back to a manual send. Let us know if you find a good solution!

Hi Lisa,

The previous agency I worked for - Grazitti Interactive, had created a custom Marketo-WordPress connector which precisely automates the functionality that you mentioned. Perhaps @Alok Ramsisaria or @Shailendra Pratap can arrange a demonstration for you on how the connector works!

Best Always,
