How-to-Guide on how to use the Otto Outlook-Add-in
With the Otto Link Tagging Outlook add-in, you can tag links in a regular e-mail you send from Outlook by the click of a button.Install like this:
- Close Outlook
- Install the add-in by clicking the setup-file.
- Restart Outlook
Use it like this:
- Write your e-mail including the html-links you want to track
- Use a subject-title so you can distinguish the e-mail from others, e.g.: Quote to Company XXX
- Add just one recipient (if you would have added more per e-mail, you wouldn't have been able to track who clicked it)
- Go to the TRACK-CLICKS view, and hit "TRACK CLICKS", and your links will have converted to include also variables about the recipients and the subject title
- Use e.g. the tracker that comes with Otto to see if a recipient has clicked your links or not.
