Jack Born On Marketing, Online Business, and PHP Code

For some of 2004 and all of 2005 I’ve been marketing a software package that I wrote called Ultimate Form Mail. My goal in 2006 was to take it from sideline project to “the big leagues”.

A big part of that was launching a new website for Ultimate Form Mail… which I did just a few weeks ago.

But I’ve also decided that it’s time to make a major investment in the packaging of the software, the code itself, and the distribution. So along with a new website, I’m happy to announce:

• A new release of the code, version 3.2
• A self-installer package that uploads the software to your server
• A new checkout system
• A new licensing system that I created
• A new affiliate system, for any clients that want to earn healthy commission checks promoting the code
• New volume discounts for bulk orders

The release of version 3.2 of Ultimate Form Mail is a major step forward in the code.

• Reply to visitors with attachments
• More powerful templating for emails sent to the visitor and website owner
• Simultaneous signup of visitors to your mailing list (third party mailing list manager, for example)
• More options for editing the emails that are sent out
• Even more security to protect against spammers
• Including the ability to stop most spam attacks before they even begin

With Ultimate Form Mail, you get a 15 day trial to test out all the most advanced bells and whistles.One of my goals in 2006 is to launch one new project a month. By project, I’m talking about ideas that have been rolling around in my head and worked on in bits and pieces through late 2004 and most of 2005.

In order to make that happen, I had to come up with a system that made it possible for me to manage commercial transactions (credit card processing)
