Overview

A campaign is a collection of marketing activities that includes emails, email workflows, web plugins, print media, online ad campaigns, social media, or any combination of the above. You can use supplier-provided campaigns or create your own. By creating campaigns, you will be able to gather data in one place for all the marketing activity around a specific product or service.

Scheduling campaign activities allows you to plan and create campaigns well in advance of actually launching a campaign. When you schedule an activity, you will pick a date and time for the activity to be sent to selected recipients.

You may see Alerts on the Scheduling page to review Personalization or Recipients. Click Review, to complete the necessary tasks. The following must be true to schedule the activity:

1. The activity must be saved, but personalization is not required.
2. The campaign must have contacts associated with it.
3. The account must have adequate mailing credits for the campaign.

Some campaign activities are not scheduled directly but are part of a workflow. In this article, we cover activities that are not in a workflow. When the campaign activities are part of a workflow, you may not see the option to schedule. An email activity can be part of an automated series of emails that are sent based on triggers.
