What This Feature Helps You Do

See the everyday task this feature supports and the small decisions it helps you avoid handling by hand.

Timely Communication

Use broadcasts for messages that matter now, such as launches, newsletters, product news, offers, or announcements.

Sending To The Right People

Send to all active subscribers, or narrow the send with tags and segments.

Review After Sending

After sending, review delivery, opens, clicks, unsubscribes, and other engagement signals before you write the next email.

When To Use This Feature

  • The email should be sent once, not as part of an automatic follow-up.
  • You know which subscribers should receive the message.
  • You need to test, schedule, or send an email from one place.

When This May Not Be The First Thing To Set Up

  • The message should be sent automatically to each new subscriber over time.
  • Subscribers need different follow-up emails based on what they do next.
  • Your delivery connection and sender domain have not been tested yet.

Setup Steps

Simple Setup Steps

Follow these steps before you add more complex setup or automation.

  1. 1

    Choose the email goal and subscriber group before you start writing.

  2. 2

    Select the delivery connection that should send the email.

  3. 3

    Write the subject, preview text, body, and call to action.

  4. 4

    Send a test email, then check that links, merge fields, and the mobile layout work as expected.

  5. 5

    Schedule or send the email, then review delivery and engagement before the next broadcast.

Avoidable Problems

Common Mistakes To Avoid

Watch for these mistakes because they can make basic email setup and sending harder to troubleshoot.

Sending To The Wrong Subscribers

Check tags, segments, and exclusions before sending. After a message is sent, you cannot easily undo it.

Skipping The Test Email

A test email can catch broken links, rough formatting, missing personalization, and sender issues before subscribers receive the message.

Only Looking At Opens

Opens can be noisy. Clicks, unsubscribes, replies, complaints, sales, and signups give a fuller picture of performance.
