Preview Edited Campaigns

After you schedule a Reactivation campaign, click the eye icon on the far right.

The pop-up window will show:

• The email campaign copy (Subject Line + Body of the email).
• Token practice information (practice name, etc).
• All clickable links within a campaign that the recipient would interact with (and you can preview as well).
  

The pop-up window may show "extra" white space between the Title and the email body. This is a display issue; the email will be formatted correctly when it is sent.

How to Test a Campaign

• Click Campaigns from the lefthand side menu, then Reactivation.
• Click Schedule Campaign at the top righthand corner, then select the campaign you want to test in the campaign dropdown menu.
• Click the Test button located to the right of the campaign dropdown menu.
• Enter the email address you want to use for testing purposes.
• Enter the phone number you want to use for testing purposes.
• Click Test in the bottom right corner of the pop-up window.
• Check the corresponding account(s) to confirm the test send of the campaign.

Cancel/Delete Edited Campaigns

• Canceling an Edited Campaign that has been scheduled: 
  • Click Campaigns > Reactivation from the lefthand side menu.
  • Locate the campaign on the list.
  • Click the delete icon (trash can).
  • Click Delete in the bottom right corner of the pop-up window to confirm.

• Deleting an Edited Campaign from your My Campaigns library: 

  • Click Campaigns > Reactivation from the lefthand side menu.
  • Click Schedule Campaign at the top righthand corner.
  • Select a campaign from the Reactivation Campaigns dropdown menu
    • Note: Only edited campaigns, found under My Campaigns, can be deleted. A delete button will only come up for these campaigns.
  • Click the Delete button to the right of the campaign dropdown.
  • Click Delete in the bottom right corner of the pop-up window to confirm.

Note: You can cancel a campaign, even if it has already begun sending to your audience. If your campaign contained a triggered campaign, you will also need to click delete to cancel that campaign. 

Only editable campaigns can be deleted. To permanently delete a campaign, click Schedule Campaign, locate the campaign from My Campaigns in the dropdown list, and click the (trash can) delete button - this will permanently remove the custom campaign from your campaign library.

What are Campaign Triggers?

• Some campaigns have associated triggers. These are secondary campaigns activated when the user performs a specific action on the original campaign, such as opening or clicking. 
• Any triggered campaigns will be listed on the bottom right beneath the editing window. 
• If you schedule a campaign with an associated trigger, the secondary campaign will appear on your Scheduled Campaigns list nested beneath the primary campaign. 
  • Your contacts will only receive the secondary campaign if they perform the specific action defined on the campaign editing page. 
  • If your campaign contained a triggered campaign, that campaign will also be located in the scheduled campaign list with the same start date as your original campaign.

When do campaigns send?

• The initial campaign email will go out at 8 AM local time on the date you choose. 
• Follow-up emails will typically be sent between 8 AM and 10 AM.

Who receives reactivation campaigns?

• Only contacts that are not currently active in a patient phase (contacts in "No Phase" or "Pending") receive Reactivation Campaigns.
• Contacts already in an automated sequence (workshop registrants, scheduled POC, etc.) will not receive these emails until they are moved to No Phase. 

Broken Links and Troubleshooting

• If links are not responsive inside of a campaign, it typically means that either the link does not exist or there is a formatting issue in the campaign. 
• It's important to preview and test campaigns before scheduling them. Campaigns related to specific funnels may not function properly if the related funnel is not active on your account. 
• If you preview a campaign and find that a link isn't behaving as expected, or your practice information looks inaccurate in the preview, send an email to support@getbreakthrough.com with details and the PDF preview.
