The templates available represent a number of different use cases (e.g. Black Friday, giveaway, COVID notice, newsletter signup), meaning you can get started with a module that aligns with your campaign goals.

Learn The Ropes With These Hands-On Hustle Tutorials

Get Creative With Styling For Desktop and Mobile

Hustle’s flexible appearance settings can help your marketing stand out. Choose colors, animations, layouts, drop shadows, and display conditions from the easy-to-use design settings for all your marketing modules. By default layouts and templates are fully mobile responsive. But you can also make granular adjustments (margins, padding, borders, container sizing) to ensure your modules are popping on all devices.

Take Styling & Customization Even Further

If you have an eye for detail you’ll love the additional customization options available with Hustle. As well as basic appearance elements like layout, images, typography, and color – Hustle allows for more advanced detailing like borders, spacing, shadow, module sizing, and more. There’s also custom CSS if you’d really like to make your modules your own.

Highly Targeted Display Settings

Hustle has all the behavior and condition settings you’ll need to target visitors with email opt-ins or ads. Set up intelligent conditions such as: specific pages and posts, visitor device/browser, country, source of arrival, post registration, browser cookie, and a whole lot more.

Smart Triggers For Popups And Slide-ins

As well as intelligent visibility conditions, Hustle also allows you to set up a range of behavior triggers for your popups and slide-ins. Including: time on page, scroll, exit-intent, and more.

Set Specific Schedules For Best Results

Hustle makes it easy to schedule exactly when you want your marketing modules to deploy. Set start and end dates, schedule modules to show on specific days of the week, at a certain time of day, and choose a custom timezone to adhere to.

Reach Out To Visitors Via Email

Once a user has engaged with one of your marketing modules it’s important to follow up with next steps or a simple welcome message. Hustle’s email settings allow you to easily whip up manual or automated email messages and establish that initial connection.

Get Busy With Social Sharing

Hustle includes top social icons for easily building your following on your favorite social networks. Quickly enable the most popular social networks and use floating social, widgets, and shortcodes to add followers.

Sendy worked for me like a charm. The Hustle / Sendy combination is super! Will recommend Hustle to any Sendy and WP user. Worked for me just by following the clear instructions provided. Only used it for two fields, name and email. My only criticism is that it seems to push into Sendy the Name and Email fields only. Just wondering if Hustle will be improved soon so it can also push Custom Fields into Sendy. All in all an excellent plugin.

I'm really digging this plugin, especially how smoothly it integrates with Mailchimp. The only thing I'd love to see in the next update is a shortcut—like a link or shortcode — that I can easily use after creating my pop-up, saving me from the hassle of embedding it all over again.
