Core workflow
- Choose inline, popup, ribbon, slide-in, or other placement based on context.
- Keep the value proposition clear.
- Ask only for information you need.
- Connect and test the email integration.
- Confirm mobile behavior.
- Measure completed opt-ins and downstream engagement.
Tool choice comes after the workflow
Software should remove friction from a defined process. Avoid selecting a plugin first and then inventing a strategy around its feature list.
