CodeCanyon: February email campaign nominations

In February of last year, our Envato email marketing team ran one of our most successful campaigns ever. In fact, it was so successful that we’re getting ready to do it all over again. Nominations are now open for our authors to get involved :slight_smile:

What’s happening?

Over the next month, Envato’s marketing team will be launching two dedicated email sends featuring a selection of free and discounted file pairings.

These email sends will be delivered to a super-engaged subscriber list of over 600,000 customers, making this an awesome opportunity for you to boost sales to your files and traffic to your portfolio.

In this campaign, we are wanting to feature two files from each author.

File 1) A file at a discount from 40% of its Original Price.

File 2) A free file.

Items will be promoted listing their applicable discounts in one of two sends:

The first send on the 14th of February.

Or…

The second send on the 23rd of February.

When completing your nomination form, you will be asked to indicate whether you are nominating your file for one or both of these sends.

We’re looking for a total of eight authors and sixteen files to be featured across the two emails. Files will be selected at random from a shortlist that meets our criteria…

By nominating for this promotion, you are choosing to set your price to 40% of its Original Price, for a 7-day period from time of the campaign launch. The included buyer fee will not change. More information on how to calculate prices with buyer fees is available here. If selected, the free file will be reduced to $0.

Want to be in the shortlist for inclusion? Read the instructions below carefully….
