How To Schedule a Broadcast

Broadcasts are used to send out a single email to a large list of contacts all at once.

To schedule a broadcast follow these steps:

Option 1: Click on the Grounghogg icon at the top right of your screen. Click here for further instructions.

Or

Option 2: Navigate to Groundhogg > Broadcasts > Schedule Email Broadcast.

Select an email to send... [ Next  → ]

Click [ Campaigns  →], select or create a campaign

Click [ Schedule  → ]

You can then select the time you want the broadcast to go out by selecting "Later" and picking a date and time. Or to send it right away by selecting "Now". 

If you enable " Send in the contact's local time", the email will be sent at the given hour in their local time zone (if a time zone is recorded for that contact). This option has no effect if "Now" is selected.

Click [ Contacts  →]

Select contacts to receive this broadcast by searching(All contacts., All contacts assigned to me., All confirmed contacts., Saved search {search name}). To segment even more use Groundhogg's advanced search with multiple criteria by clicking on the filter "+" to include or exclude as many filters as you like. 

NOTE: Emails in DRAFT mode cannot be sent in a broadcast.

Click [ Review  → ]

The final step is to review and click the [ Confirm and schedule! ] button.

You can close the status window by clicking the "X" or you can schedule another broadcast by clicking the [ Shecdule another broadcast ] 

When you hover over a broadcast, a menu will appear offering options such as *Reporting, Edit email, View Query, or *Re-send to unopened

* Advance Features Extension must be installed.
