1. Accessing the Campaign Interface #
- Navigate to the ‘Campaigns’ section.
- Here, you’ll see a list of your previously created campaigns.
- Before creating a new campaign, you can view the analytics of your past campaigns. This includes statistics like open rates, click-through rates, bounces, unsubscribes, and more.
- You can also view the performance of specific links within your emails, see where most of your clicks are coming from geographically, and track individual subscriber activity.
2. Creating a New Campaign #
- Click on ‘Create Campaign’.
- Choose between a ‘Regular HTML template’ or ‘Plain Text’. For this guide, we’ll select the ‘Regular HTML template’.
- Select the list of recipients for your campaign. If you’ve created segments within your list, you can choose to send your campaign to a specific segment.
- Name your campaign, add a subject line, specify the ‘From’ name and email, and set your reply-to email.
- You can also choose to track opens and clicks for your campaign.
3. Designing Your Email #
- You have the option to upload an existing HTML template or create a new one from scratch.
- If creating a new template, use the drag-and-drop email builder to design your email. This builder allows you to add columns, images, and more.
- To personalize your emails, use Liquid tags. For instance, you can address each subscriber by their first name.
- Once satisfied with your design, you can preview how it looks on mobile, tablet, and desktop devices.
4. Scheduling Your Campaign #
- Decide whether you want to send your campaign immediately or schedule it for a later time.
- If you wish, you can add attachments to your emails.
- Before sending, you’ll see a summary of your campaign details, including the number of recipients and your subject line.
