Batch Delivery is a feature that sends your regular or plain-text email campaign in timed batches rather than to your whole audience at once. This helps control traffic to your website and prevents potential strain on your server. Batch Delivery is available to users with Standard or Premium plans.
In this article, you'll learn how to schedule batch delivery.
Schedule batch delivery
Use batch delivery to send your email to an audience or segment of subscribers of any size.
To schedule batch delivery for a campaign, follow these steps.
- In the Campaign Builder, click Schedule.
- In the Schedule Your Campaign pop-up modal, Check the box next to the batch delivery settings.
- Click the first drop-down menu to select the number of batches you want.
- Click the second drop-down menu, and choose how long we should wait between sending each batch.
- Click Schedule Campaign.
Note
Segment your audience to target specific subscribers or groups in your audience.
For campaigns that are set to auto-post to Facebook or Twitter, we'll post at the time of the final batch delivery.
