To

Edit the recipients section to create a filter targeting all people who will receive the email blast. Only People for whom you have a valid email address and email permission will be eligible to receive the email, so there's no need to add additional targeting parameters for that.

From

Select the Email Sender to deliver your email messages. When your account is created, it comes with a default email sender like [email protected] which can be used to send a maximum of 100 recipients. If you use this Email Sender, you will have to set a the "Reply To" value in order to receive replies to your blasts.

Selecting a custom Email Sender will greatly improve the deliverability of your emails and will remove the 100 recipient limit.

Subject

The preview text of an email, is the content recipients will see on their phone underneath the sender and subject line, which previews the email before they open the email. It's visible both in the email client and in the push notification typically shown when an email is received.

Content

Edit the email content to craft the message template that will be sent to all targeted People. Here you can draft your email in all supported languages, and use merge tags to create personalized messages. Use the message preview in the right panel to see an example of what the final sent email message will look like, after it's integrated with the selected email wrapper and the merge tags are evaluated.

The email wrapper can be changed with the dropdown underneath the email content editor in the left panel.

Once the email message content has been saved, you'll be able to send a test email to any email address to ensure that it looks exactly how you want it to.

Settings

Each Email Blast has a series of settings that you can customize:

Supported Languages & AI Translations

Supported languages: Add additional languages that you want your Email Blast to support. If a Person has their preferred language set to a language that your email blast supports, they will have their message delivered in that language. Otherwise, all targeted people will receive the message in English.

After adding a new language and saving the settings, we will automatically translate the content of your email message from English, into the new languages you've added support for. You will be able to edit the content and subject line of the translated email. If you wish to re-translate from the English email, you can remove support for a language and save, then re-add and re-save that language.
