Raise More gives you the flexibility to send an email campaign immediately or schedule it for a later time that fits your outreach plan. This feature allows teams to prepare messages in advance and ensure they reach donors at optimal moments. It’s especially useful for coordinating around events or managing communications across time zones, helping improve timing and overall engagement without requiring manual effort at the time of sending.
How to send a new email campaign?
To get started with creating an email campaign, refer to the detailed guide to “How do I create email campaigns?”. In a nutshell, to create a new email campaign, hover the cursor over to Email and click New Campaign.
If no date is selected, the email campaign will be sent immediately by default. To send an email campaign immediately, click the blue Finalize button at the bottom (after saving other fields including the campaign name, recipients, from, subject and message content). Click the red Send button to start the email campaign immediately.
Tip: To save an email campaign as a draft, hover the cursor over to Email and click New Campaign. Fill out the fields and click Save Draft for each field.
