email marketing tool is not working
Hi Luke,  I submited my first marketing campaign yesterday through our site and it did not go through.  Can you check for us on it and see why it did not go through.
 
I tried a different campaign as well and it did not work either.

Re: email marketing tool is not working
Your email campaign name seems to have invalid characters "Sd9000>> $50 off + Free shipping on LG vx8500". Try deleting it and creating a new one with simple name.

Re: email marketing tool is not working
is it the $ or >> or + that is stopping the email?
