We promised you more social share options, didn't we? They’re finally here!

We’ve extended our social share tool to enable you to share your newsletters, not only on Facebook and Twitter, but also on Google, My Space, Yahoo and LinkedIn!
Not sure what social share is? Don’t worry, I sometimes struggle to keep up with all our new features myself. Social share is a tool that enables you to share your newsletters with your friends and followers on the all the social networks I just mentioned. Basically, you’re able to publish your newsletter to your social network profile on Facebook, Twitter, etc. It will show up as a brief description of your newsletter along with a link to the full newsletter.
The handy thing is that you can now do it all from within your GraphicMail account, without having to log in and post updates on all your social accounts (and you probably have quite a few) manually. We also have an URL shortener, GMtiny, that will automatically shorten the link to your newsletter for you. It looks more appealing that way and it’s especially useful on Twitter where you’re limited to 140 characters.
We realize how important it is in today’s marketing environment to integrate and automate your various marketing channels. It’s the only way to stop on top of it all – email, social, mobile… So we’re trying to make it a little easier. To find out more about how to integrate your email, social and mobile marketing, watch this 2 minute video. You can also read this article to find out how and why we choose to integrate marketing channels.
Please note: We recently announced that we were temporarily suspending the Twitter social share option due to technical difficulties. Twitter social share will once again be available along with the launch of these new social share options.
