Campaigns Overview

What is a Campaign?

Depending on what you are trying to accomplish with your subscribers, there are different types of campaigns you can choose to send.

• Standard Campaigns allow you to select subscribers manually, as well as choose and edit an email template for the campaign to send out to those subscribers you have selected. 
• A/B Split Tests are used for sending two variants of the same campaign with slight changes, in order to see how one performs over the other. This campaign allows you to send both versions out to recipients, and track the results of how both perform with your subscribers. 
• Automated Campaigns let you create a campaign that will be sent automatically once a certain condition that you establish has been met. For instance, you can create a campaign to send whenever a new subscriber joins your list, or a subscriber has a birthday or anniversary. These campaigns can be a powerful way to stay in touch with your subscribers automatically. 
• Social Campaigns (BETA) lets you setup and schedule social media post on Facebook, Instagram, X and LinkedIn. Read more in our dedicated article on social campaigns.
