Segmentation conditions

With Conditions you can filter the subscribers according to certain parameters. Personalized messages show better results than standard  ones. Use tags to segment your subscribers.

 

Read more in the article Conditions↗ about how to set up conditions and what it means.

 

Who will receive your messages? 

 

After setting the condition, you will see how many subscribers match it.

If you send the message immediately, it will go to the selected subscribers.

If you schedule the forwarding for later, the system will check the subscriber list before sending. 

The message will be sent to everyone who falls under the selected conditions at the time of forwarding.

 

 

Message in the broadcasting

After you select the recipients, click “Next” and write a message. Before you send it, we recommend testing it by sending to yourself.

 

 

The messengers differ from channel to channel. For example, one messenger has 10 buttons, and another – only 3. It depends on messengers' providers. Therefore, you need to set up several mailings for different channels.

 

Delay

There is no delay between blocks in manual mailing. All messages that you create in the "Conversations" section will be sent at the same time. 

If you need a delay between messages, create a sequence.

  

Sending

You can send the message immediately or schedule the date and time of sending.

 

 

Scheduled mailings are displayed in the corresponding section.

 

 

Statistics

You can check the statistics on the mailing list in the general list or by clicking on the name of the mailing list. If there is a button in the message, you will see % clicks.

If there is no button in the message, you will see 0%

 

 

Important: Unfortunately, Telegram does not show views statistics, because API does not support it.  Telegram also does not show clicks statistics for answers in questions.

All other messengers show the statistics of views and clicks if the message contains buttons.

 

What if your message was not sent?  

 

If there is a problem and the messages are not sent, write to our technical support with a link to your mailing list and we will solve a problem.
