TABLE OF CONTENTS


Adding/Deleting Campaign Steps 


Depending on the campaign, both email and SMS text messages may be available for editing. We call these Campaign Steps. They are listed in a table in the top left corner. 

  • To add a new step, click the blue plus sign (+) on the far right of the table row. Please note that the steps must be added in the order you want them to be delivered. 
    • Example: If you want to add a new step to be delivered 2nd in the sequence, you should click the blue plus sign (+) in the first row to add a new step below. 



  • To delete a step, click the red minus sign (-) on the far right of the row you wish to delete.


How to Set Campaign Timings 

  • Campaign step must have a start time. For regulatory reasons, campaigns may not be sent earlier than 8 a.m. or later than 8 p.m. in your local time zone. We recommend setting all steps to 8 a.m. 
    • Please note that the actual send time of your campaign may vary based on the amount of email traffic being processed by our servers.


  • Each campaign step can also have a delay. This is the amount of time you want to pass between campaign steps. Example: 
    • Your campaign is scheduled for Sept. 1. You set the first step to 8 a.m. with a 15-minute delay. Step 1 will begin sending at 8:15 a.m. 
    • You set the second step to 8 a.m. with a delay of 2 days. Step 2 will begin at 8 a.m. on Sept. 3.
    • You set the third step for 8 a.m. with a delay of 4 days. Step 3 will begin at 8 a.m. on Sept. 7.
