We are a large online store ([login to view URL]) that uses email labs, a third party hosted email service provider, for our email marketing program.
Our website is in PHP/MySQL, and the API is an XML tool, so we need a strong LAMP program with a great knowledge of XML (the api can be accessed the PHP)
Coder is responsible for fully integrating the API with FULL functionality. We need to be able to handle automatic order/info flow from our database to the hosted Email Labs database so that all customers records and other info is always SYNCHED automatically. We also need to automatic the scheduling of emails based on certain events through this API, i.e. 30 days after an order, we send a follow up email. The API from Email Labs can be used to schedule these kinds of emails.
Detailed instructions on the API integration have been provided by Email Labs and are attached.
