Launch Automated Campaign
Once you’ve finalized the campaign settings and made any edits to the email template, you can activate your campaign by clicking the Launch Campaign button.
Once live, your campaign evaluates who should receive emails daily based on the conditions set. If all conditions are met, Boulevard sends emails to clients at 9 AM local time.
Launch One-Time Blast
Once you’ve finalized your One-Time Blast settings, and audience, and have built your email template, you can choose to schedule your email blast on a specific day, or you can opt to send your email blast right away.
On the “Launch Campaign” step, you default to the “Send it Later” option where you can choose a day for your send. All One-Time Blast emails are sent at 9 AM UTC on the day you select.
If you’d like to send your One-Time Blast immediately, you can click on the “Send it Now” tab. You want to be sure that your One-Time Blast is ready to send, as once you confirm you want to send it now, you won’t be able to edit, pause or stop once sending begins.
