Step 5: On the sequences tab, you can create multiple action types apart from just sending messages. For eg. you can set your 1st sequence step to Endorse and the 2nd step to send a Message. Please check the image below:
On the messaging step, you can use our AI Writer to generate a message and also attach an image or a file such as word, excel or pdf if needed. Choose the appropriate actions and add as many steps you need based on set intervals and hit continue.
Step 6: On the settings tab, you can add the daily action limits, randomize the actions, select appropriate advanced filters such as "Exclude contacts if found in another campaign" etc. and create a custom schedule for the campaign. Please check the image below:
Step 7: Lastly, you can review the campaign details, sequences and settings make any corrections if needed and finally launch the campaign.
Note: You can exit the campaign during any part of the campaign-setup process and the system will automatically save your campaign as draft.
