Campaigns are a great way to market your business to existing customers and prospects alike. Promote sales and events, send updates, and more.
The Campaign list can be filtered by Create Time, Completed Time, and Scheduled Time. Next to the filter, you can further narrow the list by date range. At the top right, choose to show or not show completed campaigns in the list.
Actions
Each campaign is listed on the main page with basic details, including successes (received) and failures (not received). The Action field on the right gives you tools to manage the campaign:
- Clone. Duplicate this campaign to edit some details and use it again.
- Delete. Permanently delete this campaign.
- Run. Send this campaign immediately, rather than waiting for the scheduled time.
- Edit. Update the name, SMS number, message, schedule, or contact list.
- View Contacts. View the contacts this campaign will be or was sent to.
