			<title>Important Tendenci Email Delivery Update</title>
			<description>Tendenci has made an important update affecting the way that email is sent from your Web site!     The battle against Spam is an ongoing issue in the online world. It is our job to keep your Web sites emails compliant to the latest regulations to ensure that your emails are delivered to your members!    On that note, Tendenci has updated its email delivery process when sending on behalf of clients via your Web site (including newsletters, contact forms and any online notification sent from your site).    When an email from your Tendenci site is sent it will now have a Sender Address of DO-NOT-REPLY-TENDENCI@schipul.net.  This change was made to match the address of your Web sites mail server to the Sender Email address in order to be compliant with new email regulations.    A Sender Email address that does not match the actual mail server address looks suspicious to mail servers, resulting in blocked emails or failed deliveries.

			<title>A New Tendenci Console is coming your way</title>
			<description>&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot; face=&quot;Arial&quot; size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;Hello, &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
We're excited to announce that a brand new and more user friendly
Tendenci Console is about to be released next week.&amp;nbsp; This Tendenci
update will change the look of your Tendenci &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot; face=&quot;Arial&quot; size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;Console or Homepage&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font color=&quot;#000000&quot; face=&quot;Arial&quot; size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;.&amp;nbsp;
This simplified interface will streamline access to your most used
Tendenci modules (like User search and Calendar) and move the Admin
Only Links to the upper right hand corner.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Admins also see live RSS feeds from Tendenci Blog and the new Help Files Module.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Admin View&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;img alt=&quot;Admin view of the new Tendenci homepage&quot; src=&quot;../../attachments/files/1787/newenhomepage.jpg&quot; height=&quot;536&quot; width=&quot;450&quot; /&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
As always, Admins will see many more links than a regular user or member.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;User View&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;img alt=&quot;User View of the new Tendenci homepage&quot; src=&quot;../../attachments/files/1788/newenuserhomepage.jpg&quot; height=&quot;273&quot; width=&quot;450&quot; /&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
As an Admin, you still have to opportunity to choose what Tendenci home page appears on your site.&lt;br&gt;
We want to be sure you understand what the &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;../helpfiles/v/220&quot;&gt;options are for custom user home pages&lt;/a&gt; and how, as site Admin, you are able to &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;../helpfiles/v/221&quot;&gt;change the user home page that appears on your site&lt;/a&gt;.
We hope you enjoy the movement towards greater usability within the Tendenci software.

			<title>Web Marketing Fundamentals Increase Sales Lead Generation</title>
			<description> This is an older article written by Ed Schipul from www.schipul.com. We consider this to be an essential read for anyone wanting to dive into Web marketing and the way we designed Tendenci. Enjoy!   Web sites respond differently from other advertising media for two primary reasons. The first is that web users are incredibly impatient. The second is that they are incredibly smart. The more we treat people on the web like they are impatient and smart, the higher the conversion rate from visitor to phone call or contact forms.    So how exactly does a web site treat visitors as impatient and smart? By giving them what they want, on their terms, immediately and with humility.    Some of the specific ways you can achieve marketing success on the web are by making sure the following web marketing elements are in place on your web site&#8217;s home page.    1) Use a strong marketing headline that is focused on the site visitor. Try using the word You or Your instead of me focused words. The...

			<title>The Value of Content &amp; Distributed Authoring - Only in Houston case study</title>
			<description>Here at Schipul, we are constantly reminding (okay...hounding) our clients about the importance of adding content to their sites and the value of distributed authoring. Only in Houston is a great example of just how valuable it truly is for increasing visits and reaching that long tail of the market.           Situation: Only in Houston (OiH) is a collective of like-minded, creatively focused advertising and film professionals who have banded together to reclaim the professional and artistic image of our city. The organization has had an online presence since April 2005, but recently launched a newly-designed site.    Solution: Schipul&#8217;s proprietary membership management software, Tendenci&#8482;, allows users to add content such as articles, press releases, etc. from any computer. Thanks to extensive participation of OiH members, massive amounts of unique and creative content have been added over the past year.

			<title>PRSA Houston (www.prsahouston.org) Increases Revenue through Web Site Design</title>
			<description>Schipul &#8211; The Web Marketing Company Case Study: PRSA Houston (www.prsahouston.org)        In early 2002, the Board of Directors of the Houston Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America found themselves unsatisfied after critically evaluating the effectiveness of the chapter&#8217;s Web site. Frustrated by the lack of responsiveness of their pro-bono Web provider and the limited functionality of a Web site that could not meet member demands, PRSA Houston consulted with Schipul &#8211; The Web Marketing Company.          While Schipul&#8217;s services would not be free, the opportunity to engage a professional design team and take advantage of software specifically designed to assist organizations was attractive to the Board. With a membership of approximately 450, communicating with members and encouraging their participation was a constant challenge.
