Bulk email campaign in batches

Newsletter campaigns are one of the best strategies to increase our eCommerce sales and traffic. By using them intelligently, we can design a campaign that delivers emails in phases and avoids saturating servers in the face of increased website traffic.

In this article, you’ll learn how to create a bulk email campaign in batches.

  

Objective: Loyalty.
Difficulty: Intermediate.
When to use it: When you want to send a batch email campaign.

  

This strategy is part of our pool of templates. To implement it in your account, access your Connectif account and go to “Workflows Create new workflow”. In the Create from template section, enter the name of the workflow in the search engine (Bulk email campaign in batches) then click Select and Create.

 

How it works

To produce the batches, we’ll create a Workflow that uses the Split node to divide the contact flow into the different branches. Each of these branches will be associated with a certain wait of time to phase the sending of that email. As a result, once in the branch, the workflow will wait until the indicated time before sending.
